Hello all, I just installed photonixapp via docker following the install directions on GitHub. I brought the app up and ran the 2 commands that create a user and a album. I opened the app in my browser and it had a few onboarding steps. After finishing the onboarding steps, it kicks me to the login screen. But the login screen doesn't work. When I navigate to /login I see the username and password fields for a split second and then they disappear and there is just a blank page. I'm on Android and I have tried chromium, Firefox focus, Firefox, and bromite browsers. I also tried all those browsers with the "request desktop site* enabled. The same thing happens
I should have done more research before asking here. I found this GitHub issue and the solution on there seems to have fixed this issue. photonixapp/photonix#246
So I added ~450 images to the photos directory to test things out and it's got a lot of errors and brought my server to a crawl(system load was 30+). I also think it didn't scan everything, but instead crashed and stopped scanning.
Tons of those critical errors
And the end of the log were I suspect it crashed:
Sorry about using images over text logs, pita copying on my phone and I don't have my laptop on me atm
I have deleted a photo on the disk from a library that is being watched, however it is stil showing up in Photonix. Is there some sort of setting I need to enable to make it so that missing photos are removed (along with any metadata/thumbnail)? Seems like photonixapp/photonix#174 would have fixed this. In my case, the parent folder of the deleted photo was also deleted, so maybe inotify wouldn't pick that change up?
Hello everybody, I set up photonix using docker compose, I created a user and library, and when connecting to photonix, login screen appears and disappears almost instantly
since Photonix appears to be written in Python/Django/React (?correct me, I only learned about it today!), I think you will not find an unbiased answer in this channel @Pheggas 😉
hi there, I was very excited to try this but can’t seem to make it work. I followed the instruction for traefik closely but can’t get past the login page. The log keeps saying: upstream server temporarily disabled while connecting to upstream, client: 192.168.90.118, server: , request: "POST /graphql HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://127.0.0.1:8000/graphql", host: "photonix.example.net", referrer: "https://photonix.example.net/login"
I would appreciate it if anyone can give me some pointers
Actually, I'm facing the same problem (in my case, photonix being installed on a kubernetes cluster behind a physical nginx reverse-proxy)
I have a bunch (100K ish) photos stored in an S3 bucket. I've got them stored that way for ease of organizing, backing up, etc. I would love to be able to point photonix at these photos and have it work it's magic without having to move them... Is that something that is possible? If it helps at all I do have a WebDav endpoint (via mounting the S3 bucket on Nextcloud). Really appreciate any help or thoughts y'all might have!
I'd like to propose a different behaviour when displaying selected photos not matter using the feature 'tag' / 'object' / 'face'. When I chose to filter photos showing 'cars' photonix is listing all photos showing cars, good, BUT when I click on a photo to enlarge it to fullsize mode and I want to browse through the selection using arrow keys, photonix will show unfiltered photos!
I'm trying to get Photonix running on Docker Desktop on Windows Server 2019...I've got the containers running, but Postgresql keeps crashing out with the error: "running bootstrap script ... 2021-11-14 08:27:11.086 UTC [49] FATAL: data directory "/var/lib/postgresql/data" has invalid permissions" - I set the security permissions for the db folder in Windows to Full Rights for Everyone - but that didn't help. I assume I need to add a RUN command to the docker-compose.yml to change permissions from inside the container? Does anyone know how I might make that work?

Hi all, There’s been a bit of a lull recently in Photonix development from my side. My partner and I have been awaiting the arrival of our first child and naturally there have been things we’ve needed to get ready. Baby hasn’t yet joined us but I now have a bit more time to work on the project again. Thank you to everyone who’s continued to support the project and submit code improvements. Stay tuned.
Hi. is there anyone that has integrated Nextcloud with Photonix? is it possible to link each nextloud image folder to a Photonix gallery?

I've been struggling to find the right approach, especially with mix of things like containers for apps, some apps running with defined users, nextcloud, etc
is the project still alive?
login is broken for months
cannot login, cannot test
looks like a nodejs project
is there a map of modules interactions anywhere, smth that helps new comers getting started?
For current status, scroll back to 27 Nov 2021: https://matrix.to/#/!OFhmzCYjXSzZjvXCJw:gitter.im/$mIwlpxOj3lE1C8P-aN9zCdtK-etE9oUzsig1h0foe5I?via=gitter.im&via=matrix.org
Could be real a powerful software sadly Development stopped Aug/2021 https://github.com/photonixapp/photonix/projects/1
Finally, found the bottleneck with Photonix. What happened: many crashes and SIGKILL caused the thumbnailer and other processes to get terminated by docker. With #docker stats monitored the memory usage and found that its runs on the limit. Increase the docker image memory to 5gig now everything runs smooth -tested with +3000 images on OSX Catalina . Hopefully it helps others
Does anyone know if its possible to resort the photos by their exif creation date?
I have imported all my images from the iCloud and the creation date is now from today and the photos are wrong order in the web interface :-/
also i would like to know if @damianmoore is back :) his last message is from end of november (congratz for your new born child :) )
Hi @smp86:matrix.org . There isn't a way to sort on a specific type of date. I will look into the import code though as it should be using the earlier date for this scenario. And yes I am back, thanks for the congrats. I'm hoping to catch up with things and get a release out this week.
From my perspective the timeline should be ordered by latest images first :D Time ranges would be pretty nice too, sometimes i only know that i made a picture in March 2021, but with thousands of images i take per year it would take very long to scroll down that far.
Also i noticed that only 10000 of my 16000 images in my test instance have been processed and imported. Some images have the same creation date like others and i saw that pull request: photonixapp/photonix#348 - I guess that maybe this could be a potential fix
Do you also have some other maintainers or are you doing the project entirely alone?
i might like to send some ideas as a PR, i'm just a little confused because some PRs have been open for more than 6 months. Surely you had other things todo :-)
Hi @smp86:matrix.org thanks for your interest. I agree there is work we need to do on the timeline view, the WIP ticket for this is here: photonixapp/photonix#8 .
Sorry to hear some photos didn't appear - if you could come up with a test case that reproduces the error (i.e. 2 photos you upload that always results in just one) that would be helpful. Please note that edits of a photo or photos taken of the same subject on the same camera are grouped together into just one photo in the timeline and you can view different "versions" in the info panel on the right.
I've worked through most of the PRs now (had some time off). There are others contributing individual features but most work has been by me so far. If you have ideas, please check the existing"Issues" on GitHub and submit them there first. It would be great to have your input.
