Lazygal is another static web gallery generator written in Python. It is command line based, uses reusable engine and is lazy - it regenerates only parts that have to be regenerated.
There is support for many interesting features like subgalleries, EXIF information, theming and custom folder meta data. Included themes are pure XHTML + CSS.
It can be summed up by the following features :
- Commande line based (thus scriptable).
- Reusable engine (to make a GUI for instance).
- Lazy : do not build what's already there.
- Recursive : generates subgalleries.
- Does not change your original pictures directories (the source argument).
- Tells you what should not be in your generated directories (and delete it if you want to).
- Can generate multiple sizes to browse pictures according to your screen.
- Sort pictures in the same directory by EXIF date if available, else file modification time.
- Theming.
- XHTML and CSS compliance for provided themes.
- Support for per folder meta data.
- RSS feed generation for your album updates.
- Optional generation of ZIP archives of original pictures.
- Output internationalization.
- Optional breaking of big galleries (directories) on multiple pages.
- Multiple sorting options for pictures and galleries.
A huge gallery shows Lazygal in action : Album. Another example using album images: Photos from Japan.
