Photo library tool

Topics: Python html Go back

This tool reads all photos from a directory, and creates an html file with scaled down versions of those photos. If a thumbnail is clicked, the original photo and its path will be shown. I can find and visualize all my photos with it.

The directory where the original photos will be searched, can have as many subdirectories underneath as needed. The output html file is created if it does not exist. If it already exists, it adds the images of the chosen directories or subdirectories.

I used BeautifulSoup, pathlib, os, PIL, json, and pytest.
The program reads the inputs from a json file. The output file’s information is stored throughout the process in a class.
