How to Install Photo Stream on Clear Linux Latest

This is a step-by-step tutorial on how to install Photo Stream from https://github.com/waschinski/photo-stream on Clear Linux Latest.

Step 1: Install Docker

Before we can install Photo Stream, we need to install Docker:

sudo swupd bundle-add containers-basic
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl start docker

Step 2: Clone Photo Stream

Next, we need to clone the Photo Stream repository:

git clone https://github.com/waschinski/photo-stream.git

Step 3: Build the Docker Image

Inside the cloned directory, run the following command to build the Docker image:

cd photo-stream
sudo docker build -t photo-stream .

This will take a few minutes to download and install all the required dependencies.

Step 4: Run the Docker Container

Finally, we can run the Docker container with the following command:

sudo docker run -d \
  --name photo-stream \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e PHOTO_DIR=/path/to/photos \
  -v /path/to/photos:/photos \
  photo-stream

Replace /path/to/photos with the directory where your photos are stored.

The --name option specifies the name of the Docker container, -p maps the container's port 8080 to the host's port 8080, -e sets the PHOTO_DIR environment variable to the path of the photo directory, and -v mounts the host's photo directory into the container's /photos directory.

Step 5: Access Photo Stream

Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8080. You should now be able to see your photos on the Photo Stream web interface.

Congratulations, you have successfully installed and set up Photo Stream on Clear Linux Latest!
