|
|
|
|
To generate HTML files and thumbnails for a directory `/data/pictures` and host them on `https://pictures.example.com`, run:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./builder.py -p /data/pictures -w https://pictures.example.com -t "My Photo Gallery"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To include a license and author:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./builder.py -p /data/pictures -w https://pictures.example.com -t "My Photo Gallery" -l cc-by -a "John Doe"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To specify a custom CSS theme:
|
|
|
|
```sh

|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- The root and web root paths must point to the same folder, one on the filesystem and one on the web server. Use absolute paths.
|
|
- The script generates the preview thumbnails in a `.thumbnails` subdirectory within the root folder.
|
|
- The `.lock` file prevents multiple instances of the script from running simultaneously. Make sure to remove it if the script terminates unexpectedly.
|
|
- Add a `info` file into any directory containing pictures and it will be read and displayed as a tooltip on the website.
