Tube Database
Posted on Wednesday, March 25 @ 10:48:48 EDT by Shane
I finally got around to entering most of my tubes into my database. It was quite a bit of work to get things set up but now once its set up I can enter in tubes as I order and buy them.
The database can be seen here
Check out the "List All" and the Search function.
The structure is based on OpenDB and I wrote all off the categories, item structures and types. Since the program was originally written for collecting movies it was quite a bit of changes.
Since I wanted to have pictures of every tube that I entered. I had to come up with a simple way to take and upload pictures to my web server. I solved this with a wi-fi SD card from Eye-fi. The SD card goes in the camera and when ever you are near your wi-fi network it automatically uploads the pictures to you computer. Unfortunately this only works with windows and Mac. I made a folder on my windows box for the pictures to upload to and got a script to ftp any file dropped into that folder to my webserver. Now when I want to enter a tube I take the picture of the tube and just enter the link to the picture in the form I made. It works pretty smooth and you can enter ina tube in under 30 seconds.
If you would like to try this for yourself let me know and I will help you.
