GETTING STARTED
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
It may take a few minutes until your Droplet is provisioned, and all services have been initialized.
|
|
|
|
The initial admin password is stored on your Droplet, you'll see it when running these commands:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ssh root@YOUR-SERVER-IP
|
|
cat /root/.initial-password.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can then access your instance by opening the following URL in a Web browser (see "Using Let's Encrypt HTTPS" for how to get a valid certificate):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
https://YOUR-SERVER-IP/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All files related to PhotoPrism can be found in `/opt/photoprism`. It is running as "photoprism" (UID 1000) by default.
|
|
|
|
To edit the main config file containing services, storage paths, and basic settings (save changes by pressing *Ctrl+O*, then *Ctrl+X* to exit):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd /opt/photoprism
|
|
nano docker-compose.yml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remember to restart services for changes to take effect:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker-compose stop
|
|
docker-compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Using Let's Encrypt HTTPS ##
|
|
|
|
By default, a self-signed certificate will be used for HTTPS connections. Browsers are going to show a security warning because of that. Depending on your settings, they may also refuse connecting at all.
|
|
|
|
To get an official, free HTTPS certificate from Let's Encrypt, your server needs a fully qualified public domain name, e.g. "photos.yourdomain.com".
|
|
|
|
You may add a static DNS entry (on DigitalOcean go to Networking > Domains) for this, or use a Dynamic DNS service of your choice.
|
|
|
|
Once your server has a public domain name, please disable the self-signed certificate and enable domain based routing in docker-compose.yml and traefik.yaml (see inline instructions in !! UPPERCASE !!):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ssh root@YOUR-SERVER-IP
|
|
cd /opt/photoprism
|
|
nano docker-compose.yml
|
|
nano traefik.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then restart services for the changes to take effect:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker-compose stop
|
|
docker-compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You should now be able to access your instance without security warnings:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
https://photos.yourdomain.com/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note the first request may still fail while Traefik gets and installs the new certificate. Try again after 30 seconds.
|
|
|
|
## System Requirements ##
|
|
|
|
We recommend hosting PhotoPrism on a server with at least 2 cores and 4 GB of memory. Indexing and searching may be slow on smaller Droplets, depending on how many and what types of files you upload.
