HomeGallery is a self-hosted web application for managing image galleries. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install HomeGallery on EndeavourOS latest using the terminal.
Before proceeding with the installation, you need to have the following requirements:
Before installing any packages or applications on your EndeavourOS system, make sure to update it to the latest version.
sudo pacman -Syyu
Git is required to clone the HomeGallery repository. Install Git using pacman:
sudo pacman -S git
HomeGallery is a dockerized application, so we need to install Docker on EndeavourOS. Run the following commands:
sudo pacman -S docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl start docker
Git clone the HomeGallery repository using the command below:
git clone https://github.com/tommyblue/home-gallery.git
Once the cloning is complete, navigate to the HomeGallery directory:
cd home-gallery
Before running HomeGallery, we need to configure it. HomeGallery provides an example configuration file, so we'll copy and modify it.
cp .env.example .env
nano .env
Change the following settings in the .env file to match your system:
HYDRA_URL=http://localhost:3001
APP_URL=http://localhost:8080
Save and exit the file.
Now it's time to build and start HomeGallery. Docker-compose is used to build and start the containers. The --build tag tells Docker to rebuild the containers using the updated configuration.
sudo docker-compose up --build
HomeGallery will take some time to download and build all the required images, so be patient. Once everything is done, you should be able to access HomeGallery in your web browser by visiting http://localhost:8080.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed HomeGallery on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now upload your images and manage your galleries.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
