I have a hard time understanding how photologue works exactly.
Is anybody aware of a Example Project Tutorial where I can display a gallery via Django-Photologue. Where Imagelinks are stored in a database?
Or how can I achieve that in Django?
Or what else is out there to create a decent Photo Display?
Thanks for the time!
The best way to get started with photologue is to start a new django project, and follow the installation instructions. Then, load up the django admin and start adding photos and creating galleries. You should be able to get a good understanding of Photologue that way.
Photologue is based around the concept of having gallerys of images with different photo sizes and effects. It's great if you want to show a gallery of images. If you are looking to intergrate images into your own apps, you might find ImageKit much more useful. I think it's based on Photologue, but instead of giving you automated photo galleries it provides hooks that you can use to do manage photos programmatically.
Here is an example project by the author of photologue:

So I 'm working on a project in django - it's like a variation of a blog. There will be 4 mini blogs within the website and the admin for each can create new posts - so they can also add an image to their post.
Now that django has recently been update (django 3.0 is here), I was wondering, what is the best way to store and serve these images in production? Could someone maybe link to a part in the documentation? I don't think this will come under staticfiles will it? I searched the documentation with keywords like "Media", "Serving images" etc but didn't really find much.
EDIT: The project is quite small and I want to save files inside a folder of my django project.
I have spent a lot of time trying different ways to upload multiple images in Django admin but I have failed miserably. I have tried django-multiupload-admin which I didn't manage to make it work and inlines is not what I am looking for. I just want to select several images all at once, upload them under one category and them display them into a mansory gallery. I am willing to pay someone to help me find a simple way. Please help!
You can extend the Admin interface pretty easily using Javascript.
Here is the link ... it will help you design django admin with drag and drop method to upload images
Django Snippet Article about Image Upload
I am trying to upload an image using a form with Django. First off, I don't know if I should be doing this with django or a combination of jQuery and Django. Second, I am looking for a simple tutorial using 1.7 and can't seem to find one. Is there something like this for version 1.7. I'm just looking for something super simple and then I can expand from there.
Code from your link should work perfectly in django 1.7.
The linked tutorial will work for Django 1.7, along with pretty much any tutorial. The one thing you're going to run into that's different in 1.7 is that the migrations are built into Django now instead of using a 3rd Party App called South.
You definitely should be using django forms to upload the image, it's really simple once you get the hang of it - it's just like another field. You definitely should not use a combination of JQuery and Django.
If Django can't do what you're wanting to accomplish, take a look at Django Crispy Forms. I would suggest getting an understanding of just using Django image uploading first through, regardless.
Hope this helps. Also take a look at the Official Documentation of file uploads, if you haven't already.
I am using Django-photologue this app to display a photo gallery, which is quite nice. But what I want to do further is extract out the GPSInfo from each image and display it on the website (or more advanced, display it in google map). I am quite a newbie to Django, so don't know how to proceed.
The way I am doing the gallery is from Django Photologue Upload Photo Example.
If you can show me some details, like how to override the models, views, urls, that would be great. And if you can suggest another app to incorporate the google map API,I really appreciate. Thanks
Django-photologue's documentation has some examples showing how you can override the admin, views, urls and models. If you try these examples, they can give you some ideas for creating your own customisations.
I am not sure how to best use EXIF.py, as I have never used it myself!
What would be the best way to make it possible to upload many pictures at once to some cms page? or alternatively, how can I change the admin template/view to make it work?
is there a nice way to achieve it?
(I'm working withe the default picture plugin)
picture plugin does not support multiple uploads. why don't you use gallery plugin? where you can add many images at once.
