Hey folks!
It’s been a year and a half since I last posted about my self-hosted photo gallery here with release v0.15.0.
If you are happy with Immich that’s great! I’m mostly having some fun here and the more the merrier, right? :)
See link for the release notes since v0.15 or just skip to the demo.
Happy to hear any feedback, ideas, suggestions, or comments :)
Really didn’t like Immich because of its massive install size and being forced to use Docker - this project is exactly what I was looking for. One simple go binary with no extra hoops to get it up and running? Delicious.
Installed, will be following it for sure! Thanks for the excellent software.
What is the install size of immich? 😦
Exactly my situation. Thanks @[email protected]. The only way this could be done better was to do it in PHP / have fastcgi so it wouldn’t require a constantly running background process specifically for it. People can say a lot of things about PHP, but nothing beats the fastcgi model.
I don’t know a lot about fastcgi, but looking it up it seems like it also keeps a persistent process running to avoid execution overhead, but I don’t know how that process is managed 🤷♂️
Either way, you could use a supervisor of sorts that shuts down the process/container after some idle time (at least for containers I know some exist) and that should probably work fine (outside of interrupting scanning operations).
I haven’t tried it myself yet though :)
Thanks for trying it out! Let me know if you run into any issues or have some ideas :)
I remember trying it. A very neat idea beautifully implemented. But switched to IMMICH, more features, closer to what I needed.
Keep up the great job! Having alternatives is always a good thing.
I loved photofield!
Hey thanks! The Immich folks are doing an astounding job indeed :)
I love how smooth is photo field, and the way it makes browsing your photos so unique.
I think it’s a neat project!
