#! /bin/bash # sphinx - Simple Picture Html INdeXer, by Daniele Raffo # Released under the GPL License if [ ! -z "$1" ] then echo " sphinx - Simple Picture Html INdeXer Copyright (C) Daniele Raffo v3.2.1 (18.01.2008) This script indexes picture files into a HTML album. Usage: bash ./sphinx (The following instructions make reference to constants in sphinx.cfg, the configuration file for sphinx. I recommend that you modify just the file sphinx.cfg, and leave this script unchanged -- unless you really want to.) This program generates two index pages with links to each picture: a $INDEX_FILE with picture descriptions, and a $TH_INDEX_FILE with thumbnails. In both indexes, each entry links to a picture enframed in a black page, with links to the previous and next picture and back to the two index pages. For both indexes, it is possible to classify the images into sections. Each entry in the indexes is the file's description, as parsed from the $DESCRIPTOR_FILE; this is a plaintext file which you write to describe your album, formatted as follows: TITLE Section Alpha image1.jpg Description Of First Image image2.jpg Description Of Second Image image3.gif Description Of Third Image TITLE Section Beta my_img.png Description Of Another Image imageV.jpg Description of the Fifth Image EOF Hence the TITLE codeword identifies a section. The descriptor file must end with the codeword EOF. The thumbnails are automatically generated by a call to ImageMagick. This program was designed to create a photographic album; to use it for other kinds of pictures, just replace the strings as appropriate.
