Microgram

Code used for creating a "Photo Index" page for a Micro.blog hosted website.

Currently used on my wife's site.

To use, simply create a page on your Micro.blog website with the following content:

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="https://microgram.cleverdevil.io/css" />

<div id="microgram">
  Loading ...
</div>

<script src="https://microgram.cleverdevil.io/js"></script>

This will inject some JavaScript into the page, which will then discover and crawl your feeds for photos and populate the content for you.

By default, thumbnails will be rendered as 200x200 pixel squares. If you'd like, you can change this by passing a size parameter to the CSS include like so:

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="https://microgram.cleverdevil.io/css?size=300" />

Note: this is still relatively experimental, and has some assumptions baked in that need to be made configurable on a per-website basis.

Having a Problem?

If you're experiencing a problem, feel free to open a bug. The most common issue tends to be when Micro.blog's own image proxy service is down. If that happens, your photo grid will appear to load, but no images will actually show up. Generally speaking, this resolves itself quickly!
