Index out of range error on first run about photosexporter HOT 6 CLOSED

I had some missing originals of old photo stream. Deleting deleting them one by one, the export started (56617 items).
An export ignoring them and an error log with a list of the items with missing files could be useful.

@teoteo though it doesn't help with this specific issue in PhotosExporter, osxphotos will export photos even if missing (either ignore missing photos or download from iCloud if requested, depending on user configured options). It's a command line app written in python and thus not native like PhotosExporter but it works well.

@abentele

likely is an inconsistency in the photos library?

Yes it has to be fixed before a backup.

Sorry, I can’t write this kind of Swift code, but if it can help, I can create some layouts in Sketch for the UI

@RhetTbull

osxphotos will export photos even if missing

I like this native approach, but thanks, I’ll try it too.

I don't have any test case to reproduce this issue.

Also I don't have any plans to make the PhotosExporter work with inconsistent photo libraries. If the program would have to deal with any inconsistencies, the code would be much more complex.

Therefore I close this issue with no action.
