This is the sample app for the blog post at:
https://nerves.build/posts/photo_flow
The code is not meant to be production-ready, just a quick off demo.
In order to run the project you must set the following 3 config values
config :photo_flow_example, PhotoFlowExample.FolderScan,
scanned_folder: "SOURCE_DIR",
image_destination: "DESTINATION_DIR"
config :geonames,
username: "GEONAMES_USER_NAME",
language: "en"
Set SOURCE_DIR to the location of your photos. It onoy looks for .jpg files. This will be recursed through and may timeout if too many photos are in the source directory.
Set DESTINATION_DIR to the location you want the ingested photos and their thumbnails copied to.
Set GEONAMES_USER_NAME to the user name you used when signing up for a free GeoNames account.
Then start your Phoenix server:
- Install dependencies with
mix deps.get - Create and migrate your database with
mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate - Install Node.js dependencies with
cd assets && npm install - Start Phoenix endpoint with
mix phx.server
Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.
Press the "Start Flow" button to begin the experiment
