Delete RAWs of Selected RAW+JPEG Pairs

Addons and Snippets
1

This snippet will find all RAW files that are part of RAW+JPEG pairs of the current selection and moves those RAW files to the library trash.

// Delete RAWs of Selected RAW+JPEG Pairs

// Returns the RAW file node of a RAW/JPEG pair
function getSecondaryRAW(materializations)
{
	var ret = null
	var have_jpeg = false
	
	for (var i = 0; i < materializations.length; i++)
		switch (getImageFileClass(materializations[i].path())) {
			case "raw":
				ret = materializations[i]
				break
			case "jpeg":
				have_jpeg = true
				break
		}

	return have_jpeg ? ret : null
}

var deleted_files = []

// find RAW files of any selected RAW/JPEG pairs
var inds = getSelection()
var items = getItems()
for (var i = 0; i < inds.length; i++) {
	var file = items[inds[i]]
    var materializations = getMaterializations(file)
		
	var raw = getSecondaryRAW([file].concat(materializations))
	if (raw !== null) deleted_files.push(raw)
}

// move the matching RAW files to library trash
print("Deleting RAWs:")
for (var i = 0; i < deleted_files.length; i++)
	print("  " + deleted_files[i].path())
library.moveFilesToLibraryTrash(deleted_files)
