MediaGoblin 0.7.0发布,图片共享项目

升级

1. 更新到最新版本，Git： git fetch && git checkout -q v0.7.0 && git submodule update

2. 运行./bin/python setup.py develop --upgrade && ./bin/gmg dbupdate

新特性：

• New mobile upload API making use of thePump API(which will be the foundation for MediaGoblin’s federation)

• New theme: Sandy 70s Speedboat!

• Metadata features!  We also now have a json-ld context.

• Many improvements for archival institutions, including metadata support and featuring items on the homepage.  With the (new!) archivalook plugin enabled, featuring media is possible. Additionally, metadata about the particular media item will show up in the sidebar.

  In the future these plugins may be separated, but for now they have come together as part of the same plugin.

• There is a new gmg subcommand called batchaddmedia that allows for uploading many files at once.  This is aimed to be useful for archival institutions and groups where there is an already existing and large set of available media that needs to be included.

• Speaking of, the call to postgres in the makefile is fixed.

• We have a new, generic media-page context hook that allows for adding context depending on the type of media.

• Tired of video thumbnails breaking during processing all the time? Good news, everyone!  Video thumbnail generation should not fail frequently anymore.  (We think...)

• You can now set default permissions for new users in the config.

• bootstrap.sh / gnu configuration stuff still exists, but moves to be experimental-bootstrap.sh so as to not confuse newcomers.  There are some problems currently with the autoconf stuff that we need to work out... we still have interest in supporting it, though help is welcome.

• MediaGoblin now checks whether or not the database is up to date when starting.

• Switched to Skeleton as a system for graphic design.

• New gmg subcommands for administrators: - A “deletemedia” command - A “deleteuser” command

• We now have a blogging media type... it’s very experimental, however.  Use with caution!

• We have switched to exifread as an external library for reading EXIF data.  It’s basically the same thing as before, but packaged separately from MediaGoblin.

• Many improvements to internationalization.  Also (still rudimentary, but existant!) RTL language support!

• Known issues:

  • Webfinger is now json by default; in the spec it should be xml by default.  We have done this because of compatibility with the pump API.  We are checking with upstream to see if there is a way to resolve this discrepancy.

　　GNU Mediagoblin 旨在解决现有图片共享服务如Flickr、DeviantArt、Picasa和Facebook没有很好解决 的问题：诸如隐私、数据所有权，可靠性和软件自由。GNU Mediagoblin一开始是针对照片/艺术图，未来将扩大到所有媒体。

　　GNU Mediagoblin的设想很简单：它没有采用需要注册的中心化服务，而是允许任何人搭建一个实例，然后在朋友之间共享媒体。代码现已发布在Gitorious上，采用AGPLv3授权。
