photomk

Makefile-based static site generator for sharing photos.

Building a Page

nix develop drops you into a shell with all prerequisites. Running

IMAGE_DIR=path/to/image_dir make

builds a self-contained static page and stores it in ./dist (or DIST_DIR if set). You can use all the usual make goodies such as -j to enable parallel builds.

Data Model

The data model is simply the list of all .jpg files in IMAGE_DIR and its subdirectories, enriched with EXIF metadata.

TODO

• Generate .zip archive of all photos and offer it for download
• Write a faster ./extract-metadata.py alternative
• Make a pretty index page
• Generate .webp thumbnails for index page
• Make a mobile page
• Make make clean-dist remove only unused photos (i.e. all photos in dist setminus photos that are supposed to be in dist)
