This project was created so prevent having to query Google Photos while building a collage on my local server. I use it to download 1024 x h thumbnails to facilitate building collages and mosaics while offline.
It tracks the Google Photos id so I can eventually download the highest quality visible segments of the photos I use.
It is also used to presist audio recording and notes.
I do not expect this to have a very long future as I think it may be best to simply integrate with Google Photos directly. I mostly created this to learn dotnet 7.
- pull and build svelte-lab locally
- pull missing images from google photos (1024 wide, max size)
dotnet ef dbcontext scaffold "Data Source=../photo.sqlite" Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite -o Test -c PhotoContext dotnet user-secrets init dotnet user-secrets set ConnectionStrings:PhotoDatabase "Data Source=photo.sqlite" dotnet ef dbcontext scaffold Name=ConnectionStrings:PhotoDatabase Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite -o Test -c PhotoContext "Name=ConnectionStrings:PhotoDatabase"
System.InvalidOperationException: A named connection string was used, but the name 'ConnectionStrings:PhotoDatabase' was not found in the application's configuration. Note that named connection strings are only supported when using 'IConfiguration' and a service provider, such as in a typical ASP.NET Core application. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=850912 for more information.
Today I learned how to build migrations to perform database upgrades, found #dotnet aspnet-codegenerator and generated views and controllers from #entityframework contexts, added #razor pages for simple crud ops and static pages to serve the #svelte based collage builder.
Although I was not thrilled with #blazor, #razor has strong appeal.
