Script to prepare images and generate images.js

angjerden commented 10 years ago

Images.js is now manually written, but it would be more convenient to have images.js be generated from the images present in the image folder

Loop through all images in image folder
Extract metadata such as creation time, description, gps coordinates etc?
Rename images so that images from portable camera (with image files on the format 'P803494.JPG') are prefixed with creation time to ensure chronological order
Create javascript object based on this in images.js, or perhaps just keep in memory instead
Create resized image for web and thumbnail

Unless the image retrieval will be done with Ajax, Javascript cannot locate the image files by itself, so images.js is needed.

I have now written a python script to generate images.js based on the images in /res/images/. No metadata extraction is done at the moment.
