Histoslide

Histoslide is a Django app to show openslide images. It can use other OpenSeadragon or the Google Maps API to navigate the images.

Quick start

1. Install openslide http://openslide.org/ on your system

2. Add "histoslide" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

   INSTALLED_APPS = [
       ...
       'histoslide',
   ]
   

3. Configure histoslide in settings.py

SLIDEFILE_EXTENSIONS = ('.jpg', '.jpeg', '.mrxs', '.tif', '.tiff') HISTOSLIDE_SLIDEROOT = <absolute path to root of slide files>

4. Include the histoslide URLconf in your project urls.py like this:

   url(r'^histoslide/', include('histoslide.urls')),
   

5. Run python manage.py migrate to create the histoslide models.

6. Start the development server and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ to register one or more slides (you'll need the Admin app enabled).

7. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/histoslide/slide/1/ to view the first slide.
