Immich

Immich is a high-performance, self-hosted photo and video backup solution with mobile apps and a web UI. Running Immich on PikaPods? These notes cover a few things worth knowing. Refer to the official Immich docs for complete documentation.

Using external libraries

You can add an existing photo collection using the External Libraries feature. The /libraries folder is already available in your pod for this purpose - simply connect via SFTP to upload your photos there. Then add the same path as library path in Immich (e.g. /libraries/personal-library).

It can take some time for all photos to be processed, if the library is large. You can see pending import tasks in Administration > Jobs.
