Components
collective.gallery use zope.components to provide as much reusable as possible components.
First we have photo resources. Plone already manage this for you:
Folder and Large Plone Folder can contains Image
Topic can be criterized to list only Image
Link can be sources of photos throw picasaweb.google.com and flickr.com services.
Next you have the business component: IGallery. This interface is implemented at two levels:
As named adapter over IATLink to get photos from picasaweb or flickr.
As browserview to control the resource (@@gallery)
The picasaweb and flickr services let you embed a flash slideshow to display your photos. Views are already available to use those services:
@@gallery-picasaweb-slideshow
@@gallery-flickr-slideshow
But they are not integrated in the Plone UI.
