Main features are:
- tags navigation
- album navigation
- date navigation with a calendar page
- cool iPhoto like zooming effect
Demo site:
http://rdigikam.sitlib.org/tags/
To install follow these steps:
- as root, you need to run:
gem install sqlite3-ruby
gem install rmagick
gem install calendar_grid
calendar_grid can be found here http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=786
Once you've got all that installed:
- uncompress the tarball, that should give you another tarball and a bash script script
- run the script './setup.sh' as normal user
ok now you're almost done:
-edit the file rdigikam/app/helpers/application_helper.rb
edit the two variables on top. You might have something like:
@rdigikampath="/home/user/rdigikam-0.1/rdigikam" if you uncompressed the original tarball in your home.
and @mydigikampath="/home/user/Pictures"
Hope it works

to run the app:
cd rdigikam
script/server
then open your browser to http://localhost:3000/tags
PS:this is still work in progress
