# Overview This photo manager performs the following: 1. Scan a target directory looking for any photo that has been updated, removed, or added 2. Process that image, extracting EXIF data, and adding to the DB 3. Schedule backend processing of all photos that have not been face scanned with the latest FACE_SCANNER version # To use the Docker Create a symbolic link from 'photos' to where your photos are stored, and from 'db' to where you want the DB files: ```bash ln -s /multimedia/Pictures photos ln -s /multimedia/PicturesDB db ``` Then build and spin up the container: ```bash docker build . -t photos docker-compose up -d ``` At this point, port 8123 will be supporting the photo app. #### Upgrade Node ```bash wget -qO- https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo bash - sudo apt-get install --yes nodejs ``` ```bash sudo npm install --global npm@latest ``` ### NEF processing uses darktable ``` sudo apt install -y darktable ``` ### Create `photos` user for DB Photos is currently using sqlite, which means you don't need to do anything fancy beyond having run 'npm install' to get sequelize and sqlite3 installed.
