Fotos

A Ruby gem for creating static HTML photo galleries from organized image directories. Fotos extracts EXIF data, generates thumbnails, and creates date-organized HTML galleries.

Installation

Install the gem locally:

$ bundle exec rake install

gem 'fotos', git: 'https://src.niebo.net/lukasz/fotos.git'

Usage

Fotos provides three main commands for processing images:

Extract Images from ZIP Files

$ fotos extract -z PATH_TO_ZIP [-d DESTINATION]

Extracts images from a ZIP archive to a destination directory (defaults to current directory).

Organize Images by Date

$ fotos organize -s SOURCE_DIR -d DESTINATION_DIR

Reads EXIF data from images and organizes them into date-named directories (DD-MM-YYYY format). Only supports JPEG/JPG files currently.

Generate HTML Gallery

$ fotos build -s SOURCE_DIR [-d OUTPUT_DIR] [-t]

Creates an HTML photo gallery from organized image directories:

• -s specifies the source directory containing date-organized subdirectories
• -d specifies the output directory (defaults to current directory)
• -t automatically generates missing thumbnails

The gallery includes:

• Date-based organization with Polish month names
• Thumbnail navigation

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
