gmg_localfiles, plugin for GNU MediaGoblin

Plugin for importing files from your filesystem without duplication.

This plugin lets you have all your original files in one folder on your file system, and it will stop MediaGoblin from copying those files to its own locations.

It will try to make mediagoblin not touch/ruin your files (no guarantees!), but it will make a mg_cache folder in the directory.

The plugin has currently been tested on what will become MediaGoblin 0.7.

Example setup in mediagoblin.ini:

[storage:queuestore]
base_dir = /srv/media/Pictures
storage_class = gmg_localfiles.storage:PersistentFileStorage

[storage:publicstore]
base_dir = /srv/media/Pictures
base_url = /mgoblin_media/
storage_class = gmg_localfiles.storage:PersistentFileStorage

[plugins]
[[gmg_localfiles]]

You will also need to serve the files, so in paste.ini:

[app:publicstore_serve]
use = egg:Paste#static
document_root = %(here)s/user_dev/media/public/

Installation

Put gmg_localfiles somewhere on your Python path. You might even just put it inside the MediaGoblin folder if you want to be done with it quickly ;-)

Running

Go into the gmg_localfiles folder and run python import_files.py.
