# Python Package - gPhotosAlbum_JPEGcompression

## Overview

Short Description:
Takes Google Photos Album (visible to anyone with url) and produces a zip file with compressed JPEGS.

USP:
- The JPEGS retain the metadata.
- 1.5x to 15x reduction in file size depending on the JPEG.
- Larger files with higher megapixel undergo very good compression.
- Almost perfect image clarity up to 250% magnification.


## Release Notes


### version 2.1.7
- Big update, switched to using selenium web driver automation.
- Auto config selenium, no need to lift a finger.
- Include some additional tweaks and optimizations.


### version 1.4.3
- Some fixes (as always).


### version 1.4.2
- First public release of gPhotosAlbum_JPEGcompression.
- JPEGS retain metadata.


## Installation

You can install the package using pip:

```bash
pip install gPhotosAlbum_JPEGcompression
```

## Methods

### 1. Simple usecase.

Takes the Google Photos Album url as Input. Ensure that the Photos are set to "Accesible by anyone with the url".

Returns: A zip file of the compressed images (JPEGs).


```python
from gPhotosAlbum_JPEGcompression import compress_GoogleAlbum_jpeg


googleAlbumURL = "https://photos.app.goo.gl/loremimpsunm56"

compress_GoogleAlbum_jpeg(googleAlbumURL)
```

#### Parameters:

- Gphotos_url (str): URL of the Google Photos album.
- scroll_pause_time (float, optional, default=0.5): Time to pause during scrolling for dynamic loading.
- isHeadless (bool, optional, default=True): Whether to run the browser in headless mode.
- imageXpath (str, optional, default='//a[@tabindex="0"]/@href'): XPath expression to locate image URLs.
- url_prefix (str, optional, default="https://photos.google.com/"): Prefix for image URLs.
- output_path (str, optional, default="defaultlocationpreference"): Path where compressed images will be saved.
- window_height (str, optional, default="1080"): Browser window height in pixels.
- window_width (str, optional, default="1920"): Browser window width in pixels.
- scalefactor (str, optional, default="0.70"): Scaling factor for images in normal mode.
- headless_scalefactor (str, optional, default="0.3"): Scaling factor for images in headless mode.
- headless_height (str, optional, default="19900"): Browser height in pixels when in headless mode.
- headless_width (str, optional, default="2400"): Browser width in pixels when in headless mode.



### 2. Advanced usecases.

Takes the Google Photos Album url as Input. Ensure that the Photos are set to "Accesible by anyone with the url".

Returns: A zip file of the compressed images (JPEGs).


```python
from gPhotosAlbum_JPEGcompression import compress_GoogleAlbum_jpeg

Gphotos_url = "https://photos.google.com/share/exampleAlbumURL"

compress_GoogleAlbum_jpeg(
    Gphotos_url=Gphotos_url,
    scroll_pause_time=1.0,  # Increase scrolling pause to ensure all images are loaded
    isHeadless=True,  # Run in headless mode for faster execution
    imageXpath='//a[@tabindex="0"]/@href',  # XPath for locating image links
    url_prefix="https://photos.google.com/",  # URL prefix for constructing image links
    output_path="/compressed_images",  # Specify output path for compressed files
    window_height="1080",  # Window size for normal mode
    window_width="1920",
    scalefactor="0.8",  # Image scaling factor for compression
    headless_scalefactor="0.3",  # Scaling factor when running in headless mode
    headless_height="19900",  # Browser height for headless mode
    headless_width="2400"  # Browser width for headless mode
)
```
