PHP app for controlling images in a Slideshow
Posted: Thu Aug 23, 2018 4:27 pm
Hi guys. I've seen a lot of tutorials explaining how to set up a Pi as a image kiosk for displaying slideshows. I used one of the tutorials and created a kiosk but found I needed a way to remotely control which images were in rotation.
So I wrote a PHP app to do that: http://tedwolfe.net/berry/kiosk.php. The app works by using three directories; past, current, and future. Files you upload are copied into the current directory. Only files in the current directory are displayed. Any files that are in the current directory when you upload new files are automatically moved to the past folder.
The app allows you to save images. When you save an image you are copying it into the future folder.
If you get to use this, drop me an email and let me know what you think. I'm at rockkon@outlook.com. Cheers.
