1 year ago Hi @addohm, thanks for raising this. I'm afraid I'm not actively developing or supporting this project beyond significant bugs (it was primarily built as a portfolio project). However, you're welcome to fork and modify it if you like.
Having said that, it should be possible to bulk upload/populate model data (i.e. photo files and their associated info) programatically. My memory is a little hazy, so I'd recommend taking a look through Django's documentation:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/howto/initial-data/ https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/migrations/#data-migrations https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/ref/models/querysets/#bulk-create
You can also see how I programmatically created (mock) file uploads here: https://github.com/Cmastris/django_photo_gallery/blob/main/photo_gallery/photos/tests.py
Hope that helps!
Uploading one photo at a time just isn't feasible.
