igal - online gallery generator

Today Marcel introduced me to igal, which is a cool perl script for generating static html gallery quickly. Sample usage:

$ igal -c -k -p 4 --title "Party" --xy 140 --bigy 400 --wx 800 --www

Some useful options:

  • –title [s] specify title of html page
  • –xy [n] max width/height to scale thumbnails
  • –bigy [n] scales image slides to some medium height, e.g. 400.
  • –wx [n] sets filmstrip to be max n pixels wide
  • –www make all igal files world readable
  • -f force thumbnail regeneration
  • -c generates .caption file for inserting captions for images, also serves to rearrange order, hide files (need to edit manually and rerun igal)
  • -p [n] padding between thumbnails, default 3.
  • -k use caption as html slide title
  • –clean removes all files igal may have created earlier
