Dear,

Is there any way to set and get the color label of a collection from the SDK ?

Correct answer johnrellis

Unfortunately, the color label isn’t available via the SDK. My Any Filter plugin retrieves it from the catalog SQL database using the “sqlite3” utility.

Reading from the database with “sqlite3” is quite safe. You have to be much, much more careful, of course, if you update the database.

See this post for details about how to run “sqlite3” correctly:

Many thanks. By now, I would just like set and get the color label of collections. I guess this will be safe for reading the label, but since I an not specialist in SQL I am afraid I can corrupt the database while writing to it

Is there any SQL database reference?

thanks! I guess it is not so safe for me to access directly via sqlite directly to the database. I am not so confident with sqlite
