Usage

Note: Results are cached for 30 minutes. If this doesn't serve your needs, make an issue.

settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...

Override the template included, as it's likely to not be the html that you want. Below is an example of how you could use it with Bootstrap 3 and featherlight.js.

/my_project/templates/djangocms_scrape_google_photos_album/album.html

{% if photo_urls %}
  <div class="container-fluid">
    <div class="row" data-featherlight-gallery data-featherlight-filter="a" data-featherlight-type="image">
      {% for photo_url in photo_urls %}
        <div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-4 col-md-3">
          <a href="{{ photo_url }}=w1200-h1200">
            <img src="{{ photo_url }}=w300-h300-c" class="img-responsive" />
          </a>
        </div>
      {% endfor %}
    </div>
  </div>
{% endif %}
