|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
### Run via Docker
|
|
|
|
Be aware that as this runs inside a container it mounts your current directory as a volume, and for the -d flag you need to use the path inside the container.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/import ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-cli:latest upload --key HFEJ38DNSDUEG --server http://192.168.1.216:2283/api -d /import
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Optionally, you can create an alias:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
alias immich="docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/import ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-cli:latest"
|
|
immich upload --key HFEJ38DNSDUEG --server http://192.168.1.216:2283/api -d /import
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
