# Photography 
|
||||
A jekyll website for photographers
|
||||
|
||||
## Highlights
|
||||
1. Easy setup and you get a website of your own for __free__. No web hosting charges too.
|
||||
2. To add new pictures, you need to just upload them. __No code__ changes required.
|
||||
3. And, my favorite, you get to see EXIF data like __aperture, shutter speed, iso__ etc. when you click on any image, automagically. Moreover, you can customize this as per your needs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
If you know a tad about tech and love taking pictures then this open-source project may help you setup a website to showcase
|
||||
all your creations without effort. And not just that, with this you need not pay a single dime to host your website as
|
||||
it's hosted by GitHub for __free__.
|
||||
|
||||
**Just follow the below steps and your website would be live in no time:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fork this repo by hitting the `Fork` button at the top right corner.
|
||||
2. Enable github pages from the repo settings.
|
||||
3. Upload your pictures to `images/fulls` and `images/thumbs` directory. _You can do that on github.com itself or you can clone and push the images to your repo._
|
||||
4. Add your own custom domain in `CNAME` file or just remove the file if you don't own a domain and use the default domain that github provides ([yourusername].github.io/photography).
|
||||
5. Update `baseurl` field in `_config.yml` file with whatever domain you used in step 4.
|
||||
6. And that's it, your website is set. To view, go to [photography.rampatra.com](http://photography.rampatra.com) (or whatever you have in the CNAME file) and if you don't have one, you can go to [[yourusername].github.io/photography](http://yourusername.github.io/photography)
|
||||
|
||||
And, of course, you don't want my name at the bottom to show up. You can change it in `_config.yml` file as well as a few other settings like your social links, google analytics, etc. Just do not forget to [build the website](#build-the-website) after you make the changes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Run the website locally to test
|
||||
1. `$ cd photography` - go to the project directory
|
||||
2. `$ bundle install` - install gems
|
||||
3. Change the `baseurl` in `_config.yml` to an empty value
|
||||
4. `$ bundle exec jekyll serve` - start/run the website
|
||||
|
||||
### Build the website
|
||||
1. `$ cd photography` - go to the project directory
|
||||
2. `$ npm install` - install all npm dependencies
|
||||
3. `$ gulp` - minify css, js, resize images, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: You only need to build the website if you make changes such as replacing the images, modifying the css styles, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
## ProTips
|
||||
|
||||
### Resize Images
|
||||
I have made this as a [npm](https://www.npmjs.com) package with [gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) to __automate image resizing
|
||||
and thumbnail generation__. So if you're lazy like me then you can just do the following before you push your images to github.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fork and clone the project to your computer
|
||||
2. Go inside the project `$ cd photography`
|
||||
3. Install all dependencies by `$ npm install`
|
||||
4. Copy all your pictures (possibly jpg, the largest size available, straight from your camera) and put it inside `images` directory
|
||||
5. Run `$ gulp resize` to resize the images and to generate thumbnails automatically
|
||||
6. Push your changes to github.com by `$ git add --all` and `$ git commit -m "a nice commit message"` and then finally `$ git push origin master`
|
||||
|
||||
### Contact Form
|
||||
You can make the contact form work without the need of any server-side code. Just follow this [article on github](https://github.com/dwyl/html-form-send-email-via-google-script-without-server) which uses a simple google script to send emails or to upload to a google spreadsheet when someone submits the form.
