phpfspot install howto: * requirements - apache/apache2 (in fact any webserver which supports php) - php5 - the following extensions must be available (compiled in or as shared object): * gd * sqlite3 - PEAR extensions (pear install %name%) * Calendar * HTML_AJAX - smarty (php template engine, http://smarty.php.net) - sqlite3 * installation 1. copy the sample phpfspot-config-file to your new config file cp phpfspot_cfg.php.dist phpfspot_cfg.php 2. Edit phpfspot_cfg.php and edit the necessary configuration parameters. This file also include explanation of each option. Take care that the path to the f-spot database (photos.db) and the f-spot photo base directory (usally Photos) is set correctly. 3. Open phpfspot in our favourite browser. The URL depends what you have specify as $webpath in the configuration var. But usually it will be http://myserver/phpfspot (where myserver is your webservers IP, server name, virtual host name, ...). 4. To pre-create all thumbnails invoke the script gen_thumbs.php cd ${phpfspot_home} ./gen_thumbs.sh thumbnails can also be created on-the-fly by the webserver but this will take away a lot of resources of your system during thumb-generation. pre-creation on the shell works faster.
