image-annotate-template

image-annotate-template is a simple website template for creating a presentation with annotated images. It uses Jekyll static site generation, Bootstrap 5, and the Annotorious JS library.

Get Started

• Set up your website:
  • Create a copy of the template.
  • Add your images to the "objects" folder.
  • Activate GitHub Pages to create your live site.
  • For more detailed instructions see "docs/create-website.md"
• Annotate images:
  • Visit Annotate page.
  • Select image and use the interface to create/edit annotations.
  • Download annotation data as JSON.
  • Add the annotation JSON file to project repository "objects" folder.
• Publish annotated images:
  • Create or edit a content page (see "docs/create-website.md" for details).
  • Add annotation-viewer: true to the front matter.
  • Use the "annotated-image.html" include to add annotated images to the page. Check the comments in the include for all supported options.

Guidelines

• Supported image types include JPG and PNG. Ensure your file extensions are lowercase, .jpg, .jpeg, or .png only.
• For ease of use, create meaningful filenames without spaces.
• You can set the default annotation styles (fill, opacity, stroke color, stroke width) in "_config.yml" or as front matter on each page.
• If you have issues with the "Annotate Image" page caching old versions of your annotations, open the page in a new browser window.
• Unpublish the "Annotate Image" page when you are done annotating images and don't want it to display publicly by removing the nav: option from the front matter (or just deleting "pages/annotate.html").
