ORIGINAL FORKED REPO README
thumbsup
Turn any folder with photos & videos into a web gallery.
- thumbnails & multiple resolutions for fast previews
- mobile friendly website with customisable themes
- only rebuilds changed files: it's fast!
- uses relative paths so you can deploy the pages anywhere
- works great with Amazon S3 for static hosting
Quick start
Simply point thumbsup
to a folder with photos & videos. All nested folders become separate albums.
npm install -g thumbsup
thumbsup --input ./photos --output ./gallery
There are many command line arguments to customise the output. See the website for the full documentation: https://thumbsup.github.io.
Sample gallery
See a sample gallery online at https://thumbsup.github.io/demos/themes/mosaic/
Requirements
Thumbsup requires the following dependencies:
- Node.js:
brew install node
- exiftool:
brew install exiftool
- GraphicsMagick:
brew install graphicsmagick
And optionally:
- FFmpeg to process videos:

We recommend running Thumbsup with the least appropriate privilege, such as giving read-only access to the source images. The Docker setup detailed in the documentation follows this advice.
