A single PHP file and less then 300 lines of code of very simple image browser. It is intended to run with PHP Built-in web server but you can also use real web server such as Apache.
I develop this script because I need to quickly access pictures in my laptop using my phone so I can browse all the pictures via Wi-Fi and then download it.
You only need PHP binary to run this app.
The easiest is clone the project from github.
$ git clone git@github.com:rioastamal/image-browser.git
Make sure you have valid directory with images inside. We will make the images directory as the document root.
First go to the application directory. We will use our index.php also as the router script.
$ cd image-browser
$ php -S 0.0.0.0:8080 -t /path/to/your/images/dir ./index.php
Now open your browser and point to http://localhost:8080/.
This step is optional but it will increase the performance especially if your have a lot of images and each image is few MBs in size.
You need ImageMagick installed on your system. We will use mogrify command to create thumbnail in batch.
$ cd /path/to/your/images/dir
$ mkdir .thumbs
$ mogrify -format jpg -path .thumbs/ -thumbnail 400x400 *.JPG
You can tune the parameter based on your preference. The name .thumbs is mandatory because this script will try to look that directory when searching for thumbnail.
