This is a **fast** (like faster than your PC fast) **directory-first photo gallery website**, optimised for running on low resource servers (especially on raspberry pi).
|
|
|
|
✔️ Strengths:
|
|
* ⚡ Fast, like for real.
|
|
* ✔️ Simple. Point to your photos folder and to a temp folder and you are good to go.
|
|
|
|
⛔ Weakness:
|
|
* 😥 Its simple. Shows what you have that's it. No gallery changes (photo delete, rotate, enhance, tag, organize, etc), your gallery folder is read-only.
|
|
* 📁 Optimized for galleries with <100K photos with <5k photos/folder.
|
|
* It will work on bigger galleries, but it will start to slow down.

## 1. Getting started (also works on Raspberry Pi)
|
|
|
|
### 1.1 [Install and Run with Docker (recommended)](docker/README.md)
|
|
|
|
[Docker](https://www.docker.com/) with [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/) is the official and recommend way of installing and running *Pigallery2*.
|
|
It contains all necessary dependencies, auto restarts on reboot, supports https, easy to upgrade to newer versions.
|
|
For configuration and docker-compose files read more [here](docker/README.md) or check all builds [here](https://hub.docker.com/r/bpatrik/pigallery2/tags/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1.2 Direct Install (if you are familiar with Node.js and building npm packages from source)
|
|
As an alternative, you can also directly [install Node.js](https://www.scaler.com/topics/javascript/install-node-js/) and the app and run it natively.
|
|
### 1.2.0 [Install Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
|
|
Download and extract
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### 1.2.1 Install PiGallery2
|
|
#### 1.2.1-a Install from release
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~
|
|
wget https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/releases/download/1.9.0/pigallery2-release.zip
|
|
unzip pigallery2-release.zip -d pigallery2
|
|
cd pigallery2
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
#### 1.2.1-b Install from source
|
|
|
|
**Note:** A build requires a machine with around 2GB or memory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~
|
|
wget https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/archive/master.zip
|
|
unzip master.zip
|
|
cd pigallery2-master # enter the unzipped directory
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note**: It is recommended to create a release version with `npm run create-release` on a more powerful machine and deploy that to you server.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: you can use `npm run create-release -- --languages=fr,ro` to restrict building to the listed languages (English is added by default)
|
|
|
|
#### 1.2.2 Run PiGallery2
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
To configure it, run `PiGallery2` first to create `config.json` file, then edit it and restart.
|
|
The app has a nice UI for settings, you may use that too.
|
|
|
|
Default user: `admin` pass: `admin`. (It is not possible to change the admin password, you need to create another user and delete the default `admin` user, see [#220](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/220))
|
|
|
|
**Note**: First run, you might have file access issues and port 80 issue, see [#115](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/115).
|
|
Running `npm start -- --Server-port=8080` will start the app on port 8080 that does not require `root`
|
|
Adding read/write permissions to all files can solve the file access issue `chmod -R o-w .`, see [#98](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/98).
|
|
|
|
##### 1.2.2.1 Run on startup
|
|
You can run the app up as a service to run it on startup. Read more at [#42](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/issues/42#issuecomment-458340945)
|
|
|
|
### 1.3 Advanced configuration
|
|
You can set up the app any of the following ways:
|
|
1. Using the UI (recommended)
|
|
2. Manually editing the `config.json`
|
|
3. Through switches
|
|
* Like: `node start -- --Server-port=3000 --Client-authenticationRequired=false`
|
|
* You can check the generated `config.json` for the config hierarchy
|
|
4. Through environmental variable
|
|
* like set env. variable `Server-port` to `3000`
|
|
|
|
Full list of configuration options are available at the [MANPAGE.md](MANPAGE.md).
|
|
|
|
### 1.4 Useful links/tips:
|
|
|
|
#### using nginx
|
|
It is recommended to use a reverse proxy like nginx before node
|
|
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5009324/node-js-nginx-what-now
|
|
|
|
#### making https
|
|
With cerbot & nginx it is simple to set up secure connection. You have no excuse not doing so.
|
|
https://certbot.eff.org/
|
|
|
|
#### node install error:
|
|
If you get error during module installation, make sure you have everything to build node modules from source
|
|
```bash
|
|
apt-get install build-essential libkrb5-dev gcc g++
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 2. Translate the page to your own language
|
|
1. [Install Pigallery2](#121-b-install-from-source) from source (with the release it won't work)
|
|
2. add your language e.g: fr
|
|
* copy `src/frontend/translate/messages.en.xls` to `src/frontend/translate/messages.fr.xls`
|
|
* add the new translation to the `angular.json` `projects->pigallery2->i18n->locales` section
|
|
3. translate the file by updating the `<target>` tags
|
|
4. test if it works:
|
|
build and start the app
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm run build
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
5. (optional) create a pull request at github to add your translation to the project.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: you can also build your own release with as described in [1.1.1-b Install from source](#121-b-install-from-source);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 3. Feature list
|
|
|
|
See: http://bpatrik.github.io/pigallery2/
|
|
|
|
## 4. Suggest/endorse new features
|
|
Unfortunately, lately I only have a limited time for this hobby project of mine.
|
|
So, I mostly focus on those features that are align with my needs. Sorry :(.
|
|
Although, I try to fix bugs ASAP (that can still take from a few days to months).
|
|
I also try to implement some feature requests that have a lots of 'likes' (i.e.: `+1`-s or thumbs ups) on it.
|
|
If you have a feature that you really would like to happen, I welcome contributions to the app. See [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) for more details.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Known errors
|
|
* IOS map issue
|
|
* Map on IOS prevents using the buttons in the image preview navigation, see #155
|
|
* Video support on weak servers (like raspberry pi) with low upload rate
|
|
* video playback may use up too much resources and the server might not respond for a while. Enable video transcoding in the app, to transcode the videos to lover bitrate.
|
|
* When using an Apache proxy, sub folders are not accessible
|
|
* add `AllowEncodedSlashes On` in the configuration of the proxy
|
|
|
|
## 6. Supporting the project
|
|
I'm making this app for my own entertainment,
|
|
but I like to share it with others as the contributions and bug reports make the app better
|
|
and it also does not cost anything to me :)
|
|
|
|
There is [no way to donate](https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/discussions/328#discussioncomment-894546) to this project at the moment. And I'm also not planning on monetizing it.
|
|
But it warms my hearth [seeing that it is useful for some people](docs/references/README.md).
