Re: [Orgmode] Photo Gallery

[Eric Schulte]

This would require some work on your part,

but it shouldn't be hard to use Org-babel and your favorite scripting
language to automatically generate the html required to display an
image, for each file in a directory of photographs, and then use
the :results html setting to drop the resulting html directly into your
org-mode buffer.  For example the following is a minimal working
example.

* example generating html of pictures w/Org-babel

#+source: picture_list
#+begin_src sh
  ls ~/Pictures/Photo\ Booth
#+end_src

#+begin_src ruby :var pics=picture_list :results html
  list = pics.map{ |p| path = p.join(" ")}.
    map{ |p|"\t<li><a href=\"#{p}\">#{p}</a></li>" }.join("\n")
  "<ul>\n#{list}\n</ul>"
#+end_src

#+results:
#+BEGIN_HTML
<ul>
        <li><a href="Photo 1.jpg">Photo 1.jpg</a></li>
        <li><a href="Photo 2.jpg">Photo 2.jpg</a></li>
        <li><a href="Photo 3.jpg">Photo 3.jpg</a></li>
        <li><a href="Photo 4.jpg">Photo 4.jpg</a></li>
</ul>
#+END_HTML
