Google Drive or S3 as a source? #126

Hi there,

Do you have any plans to support Google Drive or S3 buckets as a source? Or any workarounds to have these as a source?

Thanks!

Hi, I'm looking to support new online storage services. But I didn't made any choice at this time. Online storage for photos can only be considered if there's an API with anonymous access and with automatic thumbnail generation.

Do you have any expierence with S3 or Google Drive?

Thanks Kris,

Google Drive and S3 both support anonymous access but don't think we will get thumbnail generation, so may not be a good fit, unless it can generate and cache locally with the webhost...

Would it be feasable to setup nanoPhotosProvider script to use GoogleDrive or S3 bucket as a source to serve to nanoGALLERY?

nanoPhotosProvider is not designed for this kind of purpose

I would like to implement online storage with automatic thumbnail generation to avoid complex settings and configuartion. Dropbox provides a nice API but the free storage is very limited in space...
