StaticGallery 0.1.0

Installation

You will need to install PIL and Jinja2 first:

$ pip install jinja2 $ pip install PIL

You can install it in a virtualenv, otherwise you will need to install it as root if you don’t change the root of the python package installation.

Use

It’s really easy to change the design/styles of the gallery, you can create a jinja template for the menu and a different one for the gallery, add them in the templates directory and later select them from the command-line with the –template-gallery and –template-menu options.

You can run the server with –server if you want to check easily template changes (or whatever you want).

This is the command line help:

usage: staticgallery [-h] [–template-gallery TEMPLATE_GALLERY]

[–template-menu TEMPLATE_MENU] [–src SRC] [–dst DST] [–server] [–port PORT] [–reload]

--template-menu TEMPLATE_MENU

--src SRC

--dst DST

--server

--port PORT

Choose the port for the server, by default 8000

--reload

Configuration

You can change the configuration easily just editing the file in $HOME/.staticgallery/config.cfg too. By default you will need to configure the source of your image directory, the destiny is by default ~/.staticgallery/site, but you can move it wherever you want.

Once you have your gallery generated you can see it using staticgallery –server –port 8080 and redirecting your browser to http://localhost:8080.

Have fun! :-D
