The backend of my Photobooth project. For the frontend, check out photobooth-frontend.
This is the backend of my Photobooth project. It connects to a gphoto2 supported camera and provides a REST API to control it. It also provides a WebSocket connection to view the camera preview.
It's suggested to look at the slides photobooth.slides.denv.it to understand the project better.
- photobooth-frontend to display the UI
- Eventually photobooth-os as the OS
go install ./
You can then run the server with photobooth-server.
To be able to upload the resulting pictures to Google Photos, make sure to place a client_secret.json file in the same directory where you're running photobooth-server.
You can get this file by creating a new project in the Google Cloud Console and enabling the Google Photos API. Make sure to set the redirect URI to http://localhost:8080/google/oauth2/callback. The server will then handle the OAuth2 flow for you.
Once you start the server, you can then visit http://localhost:8080/auth/google-photos to start the authentication flow. After this is done, you'll be able to upload pictures to Google Photos on the album specified in internal/const.go.
