Virtual 3D image gallery for Plone

Project description

hexagonit.virtualgallery is a Plone add-on that renders a Flash-based 3D virtual gallery.

Installation

To install hexagonit.virtualgallery you simply add hexagonit.virtualgallery to the list of eggs in your buildout, run buildout and restart Plone. Then, install hexagonit.virtualgallery using the Add-ons control panel.

Usage

Basic usage

This package adds the Virtual 3D gallery display mode to Folder and Collection. So, go to any folder or collection that contains images and select Virtual 3D gallery from the display drop-down menu. That’s it!

AJAX usage

You might want to display the gallery somewhere else or possibly in a toolbarless new window. To keep all Plone stuff away from the virtual gallery use a URL like below to only get the title of the gallery and the Flash object that displays it:

http://<path>/<to>/<your>/<gallery>/<folder>/virtualgallery?ajax_load=1&ajax_include_head=1

TODO

  • translations

  • cross-browser testing

  • use in the wild

Credits

  • Flash part of the gallery developed by Michal Zwieruho, BlackMoon Design.

  • Plone integration by Nejc Zupan, NiteoWeb Ltd.

Changelog

1.0b4 (2011-08-10)

  • Really fix the packaging error. The setuptools unpack_tarfile function filters out symlinks when unpacking so they will not be present in the unpacked package. This, combined with some weirdness in either tar itself or the Python tar module which reverses the order of the link, caused the targets of the symlinks to be removed from the final unpacked package.

  • Fixed packaging error in 1.0b2. [dokai]

  • JSON schema validation. [zupo]
