To be used as an add-on for nanoGALLERY (http://nanogallery.brisbois.fr).

⚪ Usage

1️⃣ Step 1: installation

On your webserver:

  • create a folder named nanoPhotosProvider where you want to store your photos
  • in this folder:
    • copy the files:
      • nanoPhotosProvider.php,
      • nanoPhotosProvider.class.php,
      • nanoPhotosProvider.cfg and
      • nanoPhotosProvider.Encoding.php
    • create a folder named nanoPhotosContent
      • copy your photos here
      • you can organize your photos in folders (= albums)
      • in the filenames, you can separate title and description with $$
      • add leading @@@@@ to the filename of the images to be used as album covers
    • edit the nanoPhotosProvider.cfg file for custom settings

2️⃣ Step 2: configure your HTML page
  • The page can be located anywhere on your webserver.
  • Install nanoGALLERY for jQuery (see http://nanogallery.brisbois.fr)
  • Configure the call to the plugin:
    • Use the specific parameters: kind and jsonProvider
      • kind: set value to 'json'
      • jsonProvider: URL to the nanoPhotosProvider.php file installed in step 1

Example:

    jQuery(document).ready(function () {
      jQuery("#nanoGallery1").nanoGallery({
        thumbnailWidth: 150,
        thumbnailHeight: 150,
        kind: 'json',
        jsonProvider: 'http://mywebsever.com/mypath/nanoPhotosProvider/nanoPhotosProvider.php',
        locationHash: false
      });
    });


3️⃣ Step 3: test your page to see the result ;-)

4️⃣ Step 4: add/change content

Add files and folders, or renaname them. Please note that the generated thumbnails are never purged, so you may delete the _thumbnails folders to force a new generation.
