Apache-Album
view release on metacpan or search on metacpan
URI which points to where the thumbnail hierarchy will live. Note
that in previous versions a thumbs subdirectory would be created.
This made traversal a bit more difficult and always made permission
creating a challenge. By putting all images created by the server in
one place we can easily track diskspace usage and make sure the server
sets up all permissions.
=item DefaultBrowserWidth
A general number of how wide you want the final table to be, not an
absolute number. If the next image would take it past this "invisible
line", a new row is started.
=item NumberOfColumns
Instead of using DefaultBrowserWidth and a guess at the number of
pixels, NumberOfColumns can be set to the maximum number of columns in
a table. The default is 0 (which causes DefaultBrowserWidth to be
used instead).
=item BodyArgs
This entire string is passed in the <BODY> tag. Useful for setting
background images, background color, link colors, etc. If set in the
httpd.conf file, you must put quotes around the value, and escape any
quotes in the value. If this value is set in the .htaccess file, this
is not necessary:
In httpd.conf: PerlSetVar BodyArgs "BACKGROUND=gray.gif text=\"#FFFFFF\""
In .htaccess : PerlSetVar BodyArgs BACKGROUND=gray.gif text="#FFFFFF"
=item OutsideTableBorder
This variable's value is passed to the outer table's BORDER attribute.
=item InsideTablesBorder
This variables's value is passed to all the inner table's BORDER
attributes. Note that the name of the C<InnerTablesBorder> has an 's'
in it, as it modifes all the inner tables.
=item SlideShowDelay
The number of seconds to spend on each picture when viewing a slide
show.
=item Footer
This text/html will placed at the bottom of the page after all the
thumbnails, but before the end of the page. Useful for links back to
a home page, mailto: tag, etc.
=item EditMode
Allows the user to create new albums and upload pictures. Obviously
there are security implications here, so if EditMode is turned on that
location should probably have some kind of security. Albums can share
the same AlbumDir, so you can have something like:
/albums - ReadOnly version, no security
/albums_edit - Allow new album creation and picture uploads,
require authentication
both using the same AlbumDir.
=item AllowFinalResize
If this is set to true, the user will have 3 additional options when
viewing the full sized picture. The thumbnail can still be selected
to view the full picture, or Sm (Small), Med (Medium), or Lg(Large)
can be selected to bring the picture down to fit better in a 640x480,
800x600, or 1024x758 screen.
=item ReverseDirs
When viewing albums, they will be sorted by name. If this is set to
true the order will be reversed. (Useful if you want to use things
like dates/months as the directory names, this will put the most
recent albums first.
=item ReversePics
When viewing pictures, they will be sorted by name. If this is set to
true, the order of the pictures will be reversed.

=head1 OTHER FEATURES
For people with lots of bandwidth and memory, Apache::Album can
generate a single page with all the full sized pictures (or all the
Small(sm), Medium(med) or Large(lg) pictures if AllowFinalResize is
turned on). This is enabled by passing
?all_full_images=sm|med|lg|full to the url of an album, for example:
=over 2
C<http://your.web.server/albums/specific_album/?all_full_images=sm>
=back
Will create a page with all the picutres in an album, but none will be
larger than 640x480. The pictures will have captions as if the
pictures were being viewed one at a time.
=head1 LIMITATIONS
PerlMagick is a limiting factor. If PerlMagick can't load the image,
no thumbnail will be created.
