Welcome to Pictorama. An easy picture gallery based on directory and files

Just clone the github repo..

git clone git@github.com:aboyon/pictorama.git

Copy the config.sample.yml to config.yml (into the config/ file)

cd config/
cp config.sample.yml config.yml

and then proceed to adjust the settings

picturama:
  album_source: '/home/user/Pictures/some_folder/'
  allowed_formats: ['jpg','png','jpeg']
  thumbnail_prefix: thumb_
  thumnail_default_size: "200x200"

generate your thumbnails quickly, by using the rake task created for that

rake thumbnail:generate["/some/folder"] #you can specify a different folder...

and then you'll get an answer like this:

Generating 30 thumbnails for folder /some/folder/ ...
Size: 200x200
Thumbnail generated from source 1.JPG. Target destination thumb_1.JPG
Thumbnail generated from source 2.JPG. Target destination thumb_2.JPG
