Photo Stream is a simple web-based photo gallery tool that allows you to create a photo gallery and share it with others. It is based on PHP and requires a web server with PHP support. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Photo Stream on NetBSD.
Before we begin, make sure that:
The first step is to download Photo Stream from the official GitHub repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/waschinski/photo-stream.git
This will create a new directory called photo-stream in your current working directory.
Photo Stream requires some dependencies to work properly. You can install them using the following command:
$ cd photo-stream
$ php composer.phar install
The next step is to configure Photo Stream. You can do this by copying the config.example.php file to config.php:
$ cp config.example.php config.php
Edit the config.php file according to your needs. Make sure to set the correct database credentials and other settings.
Photo Stream requires a MySQL/MariaDB database to store the photo metadata. You can create a new database using the following commands:
$ mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
> create database photostream;
> grant all privileges on photostream.* to 'photouser'@'localhost' identified by 'password';
> exit
Replace password with a secure password of your choice.
Photo Stream comes with a database schema that you need to import into the database. You can do this using the following command:
$ mysql -u photouser -p photostream < database/schema.sql
You can now run Photo Stream by starting your web server and accessing the URL http://yourdomain.com/photo-stream. You will be asked to create a new user account before you can use the tool.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Photo Stream on NetBSD. Now you can create a beautiful photo gallery and share it with your friends and family.
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!
