Imagehive

A self-hostable photo gallery. Very early, very work-in-progress and not ready for use yet. Licensed under GPLv3.

Targeted features

Powerful user management (photos are by default private, can be shared with other users in the app, or users outside it)
A photo feed similar to GPhotos or Apple Photos, searchable.
Album management: Allow creating albums with images and share them with others
Automatic tagging of images
Easy deployment with a docker-compose.yaml file. (potentially also provide a Kubernetes deployment setup)

Support for databases other than PostgreSQL. We use PostgreSQL specific features and support for MySQL etc. is not planned.
Image editing support. We want to keep the scope reasonable (this is a side project).

Prerequisites: Install Java 21, NodeJS 18+ and PostgreSQL 16 (plus nushell and just if you want to use the justfile shortcuts)
Create a new database (createdb imagehive)
Set the required environment variables (IMAGEHIVE_PG_JDBC_URL, IMAGEHIVE_PG_USER and IMAGEHIVE_PG_PASSWORD)
Run just generate-client and wait for it to succeed.
To start the different apps, do just backend start, just frontend start and just ai start if you have just and nushell installed, otherwise look in the justfile for the respective projects to see what commands they run.
