Gesture Drawing

About

Gesture Drawing is a simple web application that provides a way to have a slideshow of pictures based on the categories you choose. The pictures should be organized in a hierarchy of folders that will be the different categories you can choose:

pictures
 `-- male
      `-- standing
      `-- sitting
 `-- female
      `-- laying
 ...

See the Configuration section to know how to configure the pictures path.

It was mainly done to play with Scala, Scalatra and some JSON libraries.

The application is not visually polished...

Configure

The configuration is done in the file ~/.gdrawing/gdrawing.conf. For now you can only configure the root path where the hierarchy of pictures will be found

pictures_path = "/path/to/pictures"

Run

Using sbt

You can launch the application using:

$ java -jar sbt.jar run

You can also use the jetty-run sbt command:

$ sbt
$ jetty-run

Packaging a WAR file

To package the application, use:

$ sbt package

You will end up with a gesture-drawing*.war file in the target folder. You can then deploy it inside Tomcat or Jetty...
