videoboard

Simple http server for visualizing videos and images.

Videoboard launches a http server which recursively searches directories and shows all videos and images grouped by directory. It supports videos and images with extensions mp4, png, jpg, jpeg, and gif.

This repo is initiated to check training and testing results for Reinforcement Learning research.
Using Python's SimpleHTTPServer requires me to navigate forward and backward. It is especially annoying when multiple experiments are running.
Videoboard makes visualizing videos from multiple directories much easier.

Usage

1. Run videoboard:

$ videoboard

Options:

• --logdir : Directory where videoboard will look for videos and images recursively
• --port : Port number
• --height : Maximum height of image/video
• --width : Maximum width of image/video
• --file_name_length : Maximum length of file name shown in videoboard
• --recursive : Search files recursively
• --display : Display videos and images

2. Check the website at http://127.0.0.1:8000 or http://[server]:[port]. Whenever click a directory, videos and images inside will be reloaded.
