The Manifest.lrweb and HTML file
Welcome to Part 3 of our introduction to creating Web Engines for Lightroom 2. We’ve looked at the galleryInfo.lrweb file, so now we need to look at the other 2 files we need to make a gallery, the manifest.lrweb file and a HTML file.
Manifest
As the name might indicate, the manifest.lrweb file tells lightroom what files we need to make the gallery. Here we map template files to real files, and keep resources to help with our gallery, such as CSS and Javascript files. Here’s a very basic manifest.lrweb file:
importTags( "lr", "com.adobe.lightroom.default" )
AddGridPages {
template='grid.html',
rows=5,
columns=3,
}
