Immich Charts

Installs Immich, a self-hosted photo and video backup solution directly from your mobile phone.

Goal

This repo contains helm charts the immich community developed to help deploy Immich on Kubernetes cluster.

It leverages the bjw-s common-library chart to make configuration as easy as possible.

Installation

$ helm repo add immich https://immich-app.github.io/immich-charts
$ helm install --create-namespace --namespace immich immich immich/immich -f values.yaml

There are a few things that you are required to configure in your values.yaml before installing the chart:

• You need to separately create a PVC for your library volume and configure immich.persistence.library.existingClaim to reference that PVC
• You need to make sure that Immich has access to a redis, and postgresql instance. You can do this either by enabling them directly in the values.yaml, or by manually setting the entries under the env key to point to existing instances.
• You need to set image.tag to the version you want to use, as this chart does not update with every Immich release.

Configuration

The immich chart is highly customizable. You can see a detailed documentation of all possible changes within the charts/immich/values.yaml file.

Chart architecture

This chart uses the common library. The top level env and image keys are applied to every component of the Immich stack, and the entries under the server, microservices, etc... keys define the specific values for each component. You can freely add more top level keys to be applied to all the components, please reference the common library's values.yaml to see what keys are available.

Uninstalling the Chart

To see the currently installed Immich chart:

helm ls --namespace immich

To uninstall/delete the immich chart:

helm delete --namespace immich immich

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.
