fgg - free gallery generator

fgg is a free gallery generator for static site generators like Hugo, Jekyll, Nikola etc. using Flickr as data source.

Introduction

More to come...

Requirenents:

To do:

  • Make it possible to recreate the gallery even when there are no photos at Flickr anymore!!!
  • Error handling. Not done in any way so far... :|
  • Make use of some CLI parameters to make it more comfortable to use fgg.
  • Configure the Python logging stuff and add logging for easy debugging... ;)
  • Save as most cached data as JSON files as possible. Object dumps are related to Ruby only at the moment. So limit the use of Marshal to a minimum! Nor marshal nor pickle is used anymore. All cache is JSON.
  • Rewrite fgg in Python. Ruby is a weird language o_O! Python is the now the language of choice.
  • Use a template engine for HTML output generation, but not before the rewrite in Python.
  • Add more targets, not only Jekyll. Nikola preferred!
  • Maybe add more photo sources, not only Flickr.
  • Define what is definitely needed in metadata to generate a gallery even when offline. Should be done but maybe needs more enhancements.
  • Add API call to delete a photo in the source after downloading and creating metadata file.
  • Tons of stuff... :)
