Add a job to D‐Genies gallery

Note: gallery is only available in webserver mode.

Requirements

First, you must run a job, visualize the result and export the picture in png format.

Optimize picture

We decide to stick to png format, but others, like jpg, can be used.

Then, use imagemagick to resize the picture to 500x500 pixels

convert my_orignal_picture.png -resize 500x500 my_resized_picture.png 

Optionally, you can use tools like optipng in order to optimize file size.

optipng -o7 my_resized_picture.png

Register the job into gallery

Next, copy the illustrating picture file into the gallery directory inside the data directory (~/.dgenies/data/gallery as default) Crete the directory if it not exists.

Finally, register the job into the gallery with the following command:

dgenies gallery add -i <id_job> -n <name> -q <query_name> -t <target_name> -p <pict_filename>

where:

• id_job: the name of the job
• name: title of the job that will be displayed in the gallery
• query_name: label displayed in the table at the end of the gallery table from the query
• target_name: label displayed in the table at the end of the gallery table from the target
• pict_filename: filename added in the gallery folder (without path)

Other operations

You can also delete an item from the gallery:

dgenies gallery del -i <id_job>

or:

dgenies gallery del -n <name>

where id_job and name as described above. You can add the --remove-pict option to remove the picture file from the gallery folder.

Note: first item of the gallery will be shown on home page.
