PhotoPrism is an open-source photo management software that helps you organize and share your photos easily. It's a great tool for photographers, hobbyists, and anyone looking to manage their photo collection. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install PhotoPrism on Void Linux.
Before we start, there are a few things you need to have:
PhotoPrism requires a few packages to be installed on your system before it can run correctly. Open your terminal and run the following command to update your package list and install the required packages:
sudo xbps-install -S nodejs git gcc make cmake gettext
Next, we need to clone the PhotoPrism repository from GitHub. Open your terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism.git
This will download the latest version of PhotoPrism onto your computer.
Now that we have the source code, we need to build and install PhotoPrism. Open your terminal, navigate to the photoprism directory that you just downloaded, and run the following commands:
cd photoprism
make install
Note that "make install" will compile and install PhotoPrism, so it may take some time to complete.
After the installation process is complete, you can launch PhotoPrism by running this command:
photoprism
This will start the PhotoPrism server, and you can access it by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:2342.
That's it! Now you have successfully installed PhotoPrism on your Void Linux system. You can start managing your photo collection hassle-free.
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!
