Import photos from an already existing S3 bucket by traversing it #95

Open msmart opened 13 years ago

msmart commented 13 years ago

Hi, would be nice if openphoto could loop through a defined bucket and add all photos to the openphoto database.

This way it would not be necessary to manually add the photos.

Or am I missing something?

Cheers Michael

Import tools of all sorts are on the list of things to complete. I've updated this issue's title to better reflect that.

Thanks for opening the issue.

2 years, any progress on this? I got OpenPhoto installed and configured fine, but it would be nice if I didn't have to download dozens of GBs of photos from my existing bucket just to re-upload them thru OpenPhoto to a different one. Thanks.

https://trovebox.com/for/s3/import should do it

I don't get it. That site seems to be an advertisement for a paid service, it looks like the only way to do anything from that page is to sign up for an exorbitant $29/month account for something or other. OpenPhoto uses my own storage and my own server, why should I pay someone else $29/month for that? I thought this was was funded to be an open source project. Is the $29/month just to access the importer tools? I'm totally confused.

I went to the "sign up" page and clicked the "create an account" link, but it only gives me an error page.

Hello?

There's no script to traverse an S3 bucket and import those into a OpenPhoto site. The link I provided was for Trovebox (which is a hosted version of the OpenPhoto software).

If you wanted to do it yourself you would want to start by generating a list of URLs to photos on S3 and then pass that URL into the upload API.
