Image Gallery Software based on Pylons

Project description

About

Pose is a photo gallery web application based on Pylons. Pose uses a collection of directories with images in them as the source for structure and content for the site. Pose aims to be a simple and clean way for publishing directories on the filesystem.

Pose could also be used as a cross platform file system browser/explorer of sorts, but right now the focus is on image data presented over the web.

It could also be adapted as a very simple Content Management System (CMS). Of course it is lacking many features of a full featured CMS like Plone.

Maybe someday it could be a Pylons based PyBloxsom?

Installation and Setup

Install pose using easy_install:

easy_install pose

Make a config file as follows:

paster make-config pose config.ini

Tweak the config file as appropriate and then setup the application:

paster setup-app config.ini

need to remember to set ownership and permissions for all images browsed to be the same as the user running the web application. other wise functions like modifying the mtime and atime will fail, but other operations will continue

Start the server:

paster serve –reload config.ini

Then you are ready to go.
