🚨 WORK IN PROGRESS
Various tools that I use together with my Immich installation to enhance it (from my point of view). I hope you find this useful to use as-is or as a starting point of some tweaks of your own. I'm happy to merge changes that do not alter the scope of this project to much.
See Real World Example, this is a simplified (but functionally identical) version of my setup.
The tools are split in to different micro services. They are intended to be run as part of the Immich docker-compose.yml and reads it's configuration from Immich environment.
Unofficial Immich API. There are a lot of data in Immich database, this is a simple REST API that exposes that information.
This service provides file system operations to to local folders. At the moment it does two things, a hasher service who is service that hashes files to build a search index and a REST service to access the data and delete files.
A simple REST API that wraps around Immich CLI. This was an quick and dirty solution to implement file uploads.
Immich has a lot of potential and is (for me) the best solution in 2023. For me the the killer feature is a great mobile application with local cache of remote files, overall it's fast to use with a really great mobile experience.
I like to be part of the Immich journey both as a user, a sponsor and maybe a developer. I see great potential in Immich but also a few pieces where the our visions do not align. This project is my workaround for that, it's a a few non-intrusive additions who implement a few features that's missing from my point of view.
For more information with a lot of nice pictures see Docs/Why?
I hope that I will be able to remove most of these micro services in the future with official version and/or that the Immich applications and services has changed so I do not need them. I will maintain these to work with my Immich installation as needed.
