Autogallery

This is a tag plugin for hexo that generates automatically a gallery from provided directory and using given layout.

Instalation

npm install hexo-tag-autogallery

Configuration

Before using, you need to create a layout partial that will be used for the gallery. The layout partial must be placed inside the layout/_partial path inside your current theme directory.

A simple example of a template my-theme/layout/_parial/my-gallery.ejs:

<div class="gallery">
  <% if (photos.length){ %>
    <%
      photos.forEach(function(photo) {
        var path = config.root + photo;
    %>
      <a class="gallery-photo" style="background-image: url(<%- path %>);" href="<%-path %>"></a>
    <% }); %>
  <% } %>

  <!--
    If you use lightGallery, you can then simply use it by adding the following
  -->
  <script>
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
      lightGallery(document.querySelector('.post-gallery'));
    });
  </script>
</div>

Usage

{% autogallery layout-name images-dir %}

Parameters

• layout-name - the name of the layout to be used. It should be only the filename, without the .ejs extension
• images-dir - the directory of the images to be converted into gallery. Relative to the source/ directory.

Example

{% autogallery my-gallery images/galleries/gallery-1 %}

This will create gallery using the:

• contents of source/images/galleries/gallery-1
• the partial layout themes/current-theme/layout/_partial/my-gallery.ejs
