Dynalbum is a fully dynamic automatic Web photo album generator. The album includes an index page with thumbnails, navigation tools on each album page, and four sizes of each picture.
The entire album is dynamically generated from a directory of JPEGs, TIFFs, PNGs, and GIFs when it is accessed. Unlike other photo album generators, it doesn't clutter files with thumbnails and static HTML.
DynAlbum generates each page and each scaled image (including thumbnails) dynamically every time it is accessed. This means that there's no need to keep static copies of anything but the original pictures.
INSTALLATION:
Copy the dynalbum.py program to the file "index.py" in your image directory. You need to enable mod_python for this directory. This can be accomplished either in your httpd.conf (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf or /etc/httpd/conf.d/python.conf) or in a ".htaccess" file.
The .htaccess file is placed in your image and adusts web server parameters for that directory. In order to use a .htaccess file you may need to enable support using the "AllowOverride" directive in the global apache configuration.
httpd.conf example:
DirectoryIndex index.py
AddHandler python-program .py
PythonHandler mod_python.publisher
PythonInterpPerDirectory On
.htaccess file example:
DirectoryIndex index.py
AddHandler python-program .py
PythonHandler mod_python.publisher
PythonInterpPerDirectory On
and change the relevant instance of "AllowOverride None"
in httpd.conf to "AllowOverride All" to enable .htaccess
support in Apache.
What's New in This Release:
Generates multi-page image indexes
