Script to extract minimum required nimbus files to get nimbus photo gallery working

Nimbus has one of the best image gallery libraries around. The only thing of value in this repo is the nimbusMinimumExtraction.sh script that copies the bare minimum files from the slightly large nimbus project to get the image gallery working.

steps to get this example working

steps to make this work:

1. git clone ...
2. git submodule update --init --recursive
3. cd script && chmod 755 nimbusMinimumExtraction.sh && ./nimbusMinimumExtraction.sh

nimbusMinimumExtraction script

This script copies the bare minimum files from the nimbus project into the folder lib/nimbusPhotoMin. You must have already fetched (step 2 above) the nimbus submodule for the script to work.

caching

Nimbus includes caching NIInMemoryCache. If you desire to use a different type of caching, you can comment out the following lines in the nimbusMinimumExtraction.sh script

cp ${NIMBUS_CORE}/NIDataStructures.* ${DST}
cp ${NIMBUS_CORE}/NIInMemoryCache.* ${DST}
cp ${NIMBUS_CORE}/NIPreprocessorMacros.h ${DST}

adding minimum nimbus photo galleries to an existing project

1. copy script to your project directory

2. clone the nimbus project locally

3. change the script DIRECTORY LOCATION VARIABLES to point to nimbus project folder you just cloned and the location in your existing project where you would like nimbus photo gallery files to be located. i.e.

   #DIRECTORY LOCATION VARIABLES
   NIMBUS_DIR=<path to nimbus project here>
   DST=<nimbus folder in LIB DIRECTORY of your existing project (i.e. DST="lib/nimbusPhotoMinFiles")>

4. run the script

5. Add the directory of minimum nimbus files you just copied from the script to your existing xcode project.
