Simple Rake task to generate an image gallery.

Requirements

ruby, rake, RMagick, haml

Usage

1. Copy template.haml.example to template.haml
2. Put a bunch of images into the i directory
3. Run rake from the command line

You will now have a bunch of thumbnails in the t directory, plus an index.html file containing the thumbnails.

If you add new images to i, just run rake again & it will add them.

Configuration

There are a few configuraion options you may want to play around with in Rakefile; including image & thumbnail directories, template & output filenames, and maximum thumbnail width & height. Should be pretty self explanatory.

Other tasks

• rake convert_images - just convert images in i to thumbnails
• rake build_template - just build the HTML file
• rake clean - remove all files in t & index.html
• rake clobber - same as rake clean, but removes all files in i, too

TODO

• Put config stuff in a YAML file or something
