-====== PiGallery2 ====== 
- 
-**note:** i don't use this service anymore, so this page might be uotdated. 
- 
- 
-[[http://bpatrik.github.io/pigallery2/|PiGallery2]] is a fast and efficient photo viewer for your photo collections. 
- 
-===== Installing ===== 
- 
-Create a **pigallery2** user belonging to group **photos**: 
-<code bash> 
-groupadd photos 
-useradd -d /data/daemons/pigallery2 -m -g photos pigallery2 
-</code> 
- 
-Installing on bare-metal on Gentoo is not easy because some dependencies still require Python 2 (!!!) it seems. Going containers is currently the best approach. See [[gentoo:containers|Using Containers on Gentoo]] for more details on containers in Gentoo. 
- 
-Grab the docker-compose file and start it, be sure to grab the one without NGINX: 
-<code bash> 
-su - pigallery2 
-wget https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2/raw/master/docker/docker-compose/pigallery2-only/docker-compose.yml 
-</code> 
- 
-now edit it. Change the port from //80// to **3011** (of course, pick your preferred port!), and setup properly your folders. 
- 
-Also, add the following lines to the end of the docker-compose file: 
-<code> 
-networks: 
-  pigallery2-net: {} 
-  </code> 
-to segregate Pigallery2 to it's own subnetwork. 
-   
-It's installation time: 
-<code bash> 
-podman compose pull 
-</code> 
- 
-==== NGINX reverse proxy ==== 
- 
-The following NGINX config: 
-<file - photos.conf> 
-location /photos/ { 
-        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3011/; 
- 
-        proxy_http_version 1.1; 
-        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; 
-        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade'; 
-        proxy_set_header Host $host; 
-        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade; 
-} 
-</file> 
- 
-You will be able to access your Pigallery2 on **https://mydomain.com/photos**. 
-Add it to your NGINX config and restart it. See [[selfhost:nginx|The Reverse Proxy concept]] page for more details. 
- 
-==== Starting and autostart on boot ==== 
- 
-Following my [[gentoo:locald|Custom User Services]] approach for containers, you will need the following configuration file: 
-<file - /etc/conf.d/user-containers.pigallery2> 
-USER=pigallery2 
-DESCRIPTION="Pigallery2 Photo Gallery" 
-</file> 
- 
-and create the link: 
-<code bash> 
-ln -s /etc/init.d/user-containers /etc/init.d/user-containers.pigallery2 
-rc-update add user-containers.pigallery2 default 
-</code> 
- 
-To start it now: 
-<code bash> 
-rc-service user-containers.pigallery2 start 
-</code> 
- 
-And then want to shut it down manually: 
-<code> 
-rc-service user-containers.pigallery2 stop 
-</code> 
- 
-Remember you need to start it once and after you can edit the configuration file **/data/daemons/pigallery2/pigallery2/config/config.json** and change the following line to look like: 
-<code> 
-"urlBase": "/photos/" 
-</code> 
- 
-to ensure Pigallery2 works with the new subpath.
