DBPS

A Go library for creating Dropbox backed photo sites.

The library queries a Dropbox folder for files, caches images in memory, and polls for new images. HTTP Handlers are provided to serve the image files and to return a list of photos as JSON (ordered by EXIF created at time).

This is used by a couple of my sites. It is not supported and offered as-is.

Example

package main

import (
  "log"
  "net/http"

  "github.com/dpup/dbps"
)

func main() {

  p := dbps.NewPhotoSite(dbps.Config{
    DropBoxClientID:     "[redacted]",
    DropBoxClientSecret: "[redacted]",
    DropBoxAccessToken:  "[redacted]",
    PhotoFolder:         "Photos/my-portfolio",
  })

  http.Handle("/photos.json", p.DataHandler)
  http.Handle("/photos/", http.StripPrefix("/photos/", p.PhotoHandler))
  http.Handle("/thumbnails/", http.StripPrefix("/thumbnails/", p.ThumbnailHandler))

  log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil))
}

Generate tokens using Dropbox's App Console.
