|
|
|
This is a directory-first photo gallery website, optimised for running on low resource servers (especially on raspberry pi)
|
|
|
|
## Live Demo
|
|
Live Demo @ heroku: https://pigallery2.herokuapp.com/
|
|
- the demo page **first load** might take up **30s**: the time while the free webservice boots up

## 1. Getting started (also works on Raspberry Pi)
|
|
|
|
### 1.1 Install and Run with Docker (recommended)
|
|
|
|
[Docker](https://www.docker.com/) with [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/) is the offitial and recommend way of installing and running *Pigallery2*.
|
|
It contains all necessary dependencies, auto restarts on reboot, supports https, easy to upgrade to newer versions.
|
|
For configuration and docker-compose files read more [here](docker/README.md) or check all builds: https://hub.docker.com/r/bpatrik/pigallery2/tags/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1.2 Direct Install (if you are familiar with nodejs and building npm packages from source)
|
|
As an alternative, you can also directly install nodejs and the app and run it natively.
|
|
### 1.2.0 [Install NodeJs](https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
|
|
Download and extract
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Full node install on raspberry pi description: https://www.w3schools.com/nodejs/nodejs_raspberrypi.asp
|
|
|
|
### 1.2.1 Install PiGallery2
|
|
#### 1.2.1-a Install from release
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~
|
|
wget https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/releases/download/1.8.0/pigallery2.zip
|
|
unzip pigallery2.zip -d pigallery2
|
|
cd pigallery2
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
#### 1.2.1-b Install from source
|
|
|
|
**Note:** A build requires a machine with around 2GB or memory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~
|
|
wget https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/archive/master.zip
|
|
unzip master.zip
|
|
cd pigallery2-master # enter the unzipped directory
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note**: It is recommended to create a release version with `npm run create-release` on a more powerful mashine and deploy that to you server.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: you can use `npm run create-release -- --languages=fr,ro` to restrict building to the listed languages (english is added by default)
|
|
|
|
#### 1.2.2 Run PiGallery2
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
To configure it, run `PiGallery2` first to create `config.json` file, then edit it and restart.
|
|
The app has a nice UI for settings, you may use that too.
|
|
Default user: `admin` pass: `admin`
|
|
|
|
**Note**: First run, you might have file access issues and port 80 issue, see [#115](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/115).
|
|
Running `npm start -- --Server-port=8080` will start the app on port 8080 that does not require `root`
|
|
Adding read/write permissions to all files can solve the file access issue `chmod -R o-w .`, see [#98](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/98).
|
|
|
|
### 1.3 Advanced configuration
|
|
You can set up the app the following ways:
|
|
* Using the UI
|
|
* Manually editing the `config.json`
|
|
* Through switches
|
|
* Like: `node start -- --Server-port=3000 --Client-authenticationRequired=false`
|
|
* You can check the generated `config.json` for the config hierarchy
|
|
* Through environmental variable
|
|
* like set env. variable `Server-port` to `3000`
|
|
|
|
Full list of configuration options are available at the [MANPAGE.md](MANPAGE.md).
|
|
|
|
### 1.4 Useful links/tips:
|
|
|
|
#### using nginx
|
|
It is recommended to use a reverse proxy like nginx before node
|
|
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5009324/node-js-nginx-what-now
|
|
|
|
#### making https
|
|
With cerbot & nginx it is simple to set up secure connection. You have no excuse not doing so.
|
|
https://certbot.eff.org/
|
|
|
|
#### node install error:
|
|
If you get error during module installation, make sure you have everything to build node modules from source
|
|
```bash
|
|
apt-get install build-essential libkrb5-dev gcc g++
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 2. Translate the page to your own language
|
|
1. [Install Pigallery2](#111-b-install-from-source) from source (with the release it won't work)
|
|
2. add your language e.g: fr
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run add-translation -- --fr
|
|
```
|
|
it creates a new `messages.fr.xls` file at `src/frontend/translate` folder,
|
|
it will already contain dummy translation with google translate.
|
|
3. 'fix' the dummy translation
|
|
4. test if it works:
|
|
build and start the app
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run build
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
5. (optional) create a pull request at github to add your translation to the project.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: you can also build your own release with as described in [1.1.1-b Install from source](#121-b-install-from-source);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
## 4. Suggest/endorse new features
|
|
You are welcome to suggest new features to the application via [github issues](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues).
|
|
I cannot garantie any dealine with the development of a new feature. (I usually fix bugs within week/weeks.)
|
|
I will give a higher priority to a feature that has more 'likes' (i.e.: `+1`-s or thumbs ups) on it.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Known errors
|
|
* EXIF orientation tag:
|
|
* There is no nice way to handle EXIF orientation tag properly.
|
|
The page handles these photos, but might cause same error in the user experience (e.g.: the pages loads those photos slower. See issue [#11](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/11))
|
|
* Video support on weak servers (like raspberry pi) with low upload rate
|
|
* video playback may use up too much resources and the server might not response for a while. Enable video transcoding in the app, to transcode the videos to lover bitrate.
