nu2gallery
About
nu2gallery is a Python tool that writes a new Markdown file with metadata necessary to display an image post for gonvalhector.github.io .
The site utilizes Jekyll as its Static Site Generator, which uses MD files with Front Matter for its posts. Image posts, as I implemented them for the gallery, contain many variables in its front matter that are then used by a template to display them as HTML pages.
There was a lot of time-consuming copy-pastying used in the first few image posts I made for the site, so I ended up writing a little Python program that would streamline that process.
That program became outdated and hard to update when newer features were implemented for the image posts, so writing a similar tool that could be easily updated, mantained and expanded upon turned into a priority. This became nu2gallery .
