Photogallery-On-PHP

Simple photogallery based on PHP

General idea behind the Photogallery On PHP

I needed for some of my project web gallery which is automatically generated from directory structure with photos. Therefore I created simle photogallery based on PHP.

Supported features

• support for mobile devices - photogallery looks nice on mobile devices since for displaying images is used Photoswipe
• support for discussions - one discussion is present in photogallery and each photoalbum in photogallery has again its own discussion. Discussion is order from the newest commentary to the oldest commentary.
• support for Google Analytics - you just enter your script into google_analytics.txt and subsequently it is generated into all photogallery web pages which user can see

How it works?

In one private folder (which is not directly exposed to the Internet) you just needs to configure photogallery (enter some information, password, upload photos) and into another folder, which is directly exposed to the Internet, you upload PHP source codes of photogallery.

Directory scructure

My webhosting provider supports some location for private files (not exposed to the Internet) and some location (in my case folder sub for subdomains) which is exposed to the Internet:

• files - folder with private files

  • photogallery-on-php - name of my subdomain/photogallery
    • some-album-1
      • photo - large photos which will be displayed
      • thumb - small thumbs of each photo
      • discussion.txt - file contains discussion for photoalbum
      • info_album.ini - information about photoalbum
      • info_photos.csv - information about single files
    • some-album-2
    • discussion.txt - file contains discussion for photogallery
    • google_analytics.txt - Google Analytics script
    • info_gallery.ini - information about photogallery and its configuration
    • password.txt - password for access to the photogallery

• sub - folder with subdomain exposed to the Internet

  • photogallery-on-php - name of my subdomain/photogallery
    • subdomain contains all photogallery-on-php source codes. You can just copy it there.

Modification for your webhosting

If you do not wish to use files or sub directory, you have to change the paths in each php file separately. When #16 will be fixed/done, paths will be centralized and any modification will be much simpler.

Getting the Photogallery on PHP

Run git clone git@github.com:antonbalucha/photogallery-on-php command from your console, which supports GIT (e.g. https://git-scm.com/downloads)
