A Photobooth webinterface for Raspberry Pi and Windows.
- Works on Windows and Linux.
- Under Windows digiCamControl by Duka Istvan can be used to control the camera and to take pictures.
- Under Linux gPhoto2 is used to control the camera and to take pictures.
- Images are processed with GD/ImageMagick.
- Photobooth caches all generated QR-Codes, Thumbnails and Prints.
- Pictures can be printed directly after they were taken or later from the gallery. Photobooth uses the command line to print the picture. The command can be modified in
my.config.inc.php. - Pictures can be send via E-Mail.
- You can choose an image filter before taking a picture.
- Settings can be changed in
my.config.inc.phpor via Admin Page (under /admin):- You can hide the gallery.
- The gallery can be ordered ascending oder descending by picture age (see
$config['gallery']['newest_first']inmy.config.inc.php). - Choose between md5format and dateformat images.
- You can switch between german, english and french language lables.
- QR-Code to allow downloading pictures from your Photobooth can be enabled/disabled.
- Print feature can be enabled/disabled.
- LivePreview can be enabled/disabled (uses device cam).
- Wedding specifig config to show a heart betweeen two names on the startpage.
- Green screen keying can be enabled/disabled (chroma keying).
- gphoto2 installed, if used on a Raspberry for DSLR control
- digiCamControl, if used unter Windows for DSLR control
- Apache
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
On Raspbian Stretch:
sudo apt-get install git apache2 php php-gd libav-tools
On Raspbian Buster
sudo apt-get install git apache2 php php-gd ffmpeg
Get the Photobooth source and set perms
cd /var/www/
sudo rm -r html/
sudo git clone https://github.com/andi34/photobooth html
cd /var/www/html/resources/lib
sudo git clone https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer
cd /var/www/html
sudo cp config.inc.php my.config.inc.php
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/images
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/keying
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/print
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/qrcodes
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/thumbs
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/tmp
sudo chown -R pi: /var/www/
sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www
Install latest version of libgphoto2, choose last stable release
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gonzalo/gphoto2-updater/master/gphoto2-updater.sh && sudo bash gphoto2-updater.sh
Give sudo rights to the webserver user (www-data)
sudo nano /etc/sudoers
and add the following line to the file:
www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
Ensure that the camera trigger works:
sudo rm /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.gtk.vfs.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor.service
sudo rm /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/gphoto2.mount
sudo rm /usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors/gphoto2.monitor
sudo rm /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor
Open the IP address of your raspberry pi in a browser
- Change the styling to your needs
- Download digiCamControl and extract the archive into
digicamcontrolin the photobooth root, e.g.D:\xampp\htdocs\photobooth\digicamcontrol
Use the copy named my.config.inc.php to make config changes for personal use to prevent sharing personal data on Github by accident.
There are three label files in the lang folder, one for de (german), one for en (english) and one for fr (french). You can change the language inside my.config.inc.php or via Admin Page.
Add --keep option for gphoto2 in my.config.inc.php:
$config['take_picture']['cmd'] = 'sudo gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download --keep --filename=%s images';
On some cameras you also need to define the capturetarget because Internal RAM is used to store captured picture. To do this use --set-config capturetarget=X option for gphoto2 in my.config.inc.php (replace "X" with the target of your choice):
$config['take_picture']['cmd'] = 'sudo gphoto2 --set-config capturetarget=1 --capture-image-and-download --keep --filename=%s images';
To know which capturetarget needs to be defined you need to run:
gphoto2 --get-config capturetarget
Example:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ gphoto2 --get-config capturetarget
Label: Capture Target
Readonly: 0
Type: RADIO
Current: Internal RAM
Choice: 0 Internal RAM
Choice: 1 Memory card
Edit the LXDE Autostart Script:
sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
and add the following lines:
@xset s off
@xset -dpms
@xset s noblank
@chromium-browser --incognito --kiosk http://localhost/
NOTE: If you're using QR-Code replace http://localhost/ with your local IP-Adress (e.g. http://192.168.4.1), else QR-Code does not work.
If touch is not working on your Raspberry Pi edit the LXDE Autostart Script again
sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
and add --touch-events=enabled for Chromium:
@chromium-browser --incognito --kiosk http://localhost/ --touch-events=enabled
To hide the Mouse Cursor we'll use "unclutter":
sudo apt-get install unclutter
Edit the LXDE Autostart Script again:
sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
and add the following line:
@unclutter -idle 0
If connection fails some help can be found here, especially gmail needs some special config.
You can use a hardware button connected on GPIO24 to trigger a photo. Set $config['use_gpio_button'] to true or use the Admin panel to enable this function.
You also need to run a python script in background to read the state of GPIO24 and send a key-combination (alt+p) if hardware button is pressed to trigger the website to take a photo.
To run the python script in background add a cronjob:
sudo crontab -e
@reboot python /var/www/html/button.py &
