photosite

Static site generator for building a simple photo site.

Install

npm i

Create a .env file by copying the default.env file and modifying the values as needed.

Generate Site Data

The following command will sync the data with s3, generate metadata for each new photo and produce all required thumbnails required for the site.

bash scripts/generate.sh

Build Site

This command will build the website using the sqlite + photo data available at the time it is run.

bash scripts/build.sh

File Naming

Photos should be named with relavent metadata in the filename so that the scripts can parse out the data. The underscore character (_) is the delimiter between elements and dash (-) should be used in place of spaces. The hash character (#) should be used to split between the metadata filename and the original file, so that it can be searched for if needed.

Elements are expected in the following order:

year
month
day
format
filmstock
location
description
original
