piwigo-3dhop is a plugin for Piwigo that allows 3D models to be added to galleries and viewed using 3DHOP.
3DHOP currently supports models in .ply and .nxs format. Other files may be added to Piwigo using the "multiple formats" functionality but cannot be viewed directly.
The easiest way to install the plugin is from within Piwigo. Search for '3dhop' in the plugin manager, click 'install', and then 'activate now'.
To use the latest development version of the plugin, you can clone this repository directly into the plugins directory of your Piwigo installation.
cd <PATH_TO_PIWIGO>/plugins
git clone https://github.com/joeroe/piwigo-3dhop.git 3dhop
Alternatively, download the repository using the link above and unzip it to plugins/3dhop.
Enable the '3dhop' plugin in your Piwigo admin interface. You can then add models to the gallery using file synchronisation (FTP) or the upload tool.
Note that the plugin currently cannot generate thumbnails of 3D models on album pages, etc.
