Hall of Mirrors

JavaScript Image Gallery for After Dark. Hall of Mirrors adds a responsive image gallery using PhotoSwipe.

Demo

Your browser doesn't support HTML5 video. Here is a link to the video instead. Ref: embedding-videos-in-readmes

Setup

None required, unless you're hosting your site root from a path including a / such as domain.example/blog/. If so, update the url data types in default-skin.css to include the full path. Use the included bin/urlize script to facilitate this change.

Installation

1. Copy the contents of this repository into a directory called themes/hall-of-mirrors under the root of your After Dark site.

2. Add hall-of-mirrors as a theme component to your After Dark site config.toml, e.g.

   theme = [
     "hall-of-mirrors",
     "after-dark"
   ]
   

3. Add and specify settings for the module in your After Dark site config, e.g.

   [params.modules.hall_of_mirrors]
     enabled = true # Required in version 0.x.x
   

4. Create a Leaf Bundle for your images and content.

5. Configure the content to reference the images.

6. Build and deploy your After Dark site.

Configuration

To display a gallery add the Page Resources you wish to display to your Leaf Bundle and configure your front matter as shown.

Minimal

Display a gallery for all JPEG images in the page bundle:

[[resources]]
  src = "**.jpg" # Display any jpeg image in the leaf bundle
  name = "gallery" # Name must include the word 'gallery'

Display a gallery for images in a specific bundle subdirectory:

[[resources]]
  src = "images/gallery/**.jpg" # Restrict images to a folder
  name = "Image gallery" # Provide a more friendly gallery name

Extended

Add captions and enhance SEO by configuring individual resources:

[[resources]]
  src = "**/ray-hennessy-763310-unsplash.jpg"
  [resources.params]
    thumb_size = "750x" # Adjust size of thumbnail image
  [resources.params.meta]
    creator = "Ray Hennessy"
    description = "This is a long description. It is shown instead of the title and is intended to provide more information."

[[resources]]
  src = "**sprat**" # Glob for image with 'sprat' in the filename
  title = "Diverse succulents around a rock"
  [resources.params]
    hide_credits = true # Display title but not creator
  [resources.params.meta]
    creator = "Annie Spratt" # Maps to schema structured data

[[resources]]
  src = "**/blake-richard-verdoorn-20063-unsplash.jpg"
  title = "Bridge over a green waterfall"
  [resources.params]
    hide_credits = true
    thumb_size = "350x"
  [resources.params.meta]
    creator = "Blake Richard Verdoorn"
    keywords = ["nature", "waterfall", "bridge"]

[[resources]]
  src = "images/gallery/**.jpg"
  name = "Nature gallery"
  [resources.params.meta]
    genre = "digital" # Set genre meta for all gallery images

This should get you started. Expect some breaking changes as the development is finalized.
