home-gallery VS mblaze

Maybe home gallery could work? I've been testing it a bit lately. https://github.com/xemle/home-gallery

Hi. I'm a new Unraid user and trying to add https://github.com/xemle/home-gallery to my unraid. I only used to install through the CA store so I can't seem to get this to work manually. Can anyone help or is there any tutorial which would help me? Thank you :)

Homegallery: Web gallery featuring face/object recognition auto-tagging, and AI-powered similar image discovery. Demo. Github

Home Gallery[1] for my photo collection. It has (local) face and object detection.

AdGuard for ad blocking

OctoPrint for 3d printing

I haven't tried PhotoPrism but I'll give it a whirl. In my case, I'm looking for the best way to enable multiple family members upload, tag, and effectively browse tens of thousands of photographs as we all continue digitizing family albums.

I'm currently using HomeGallery[0] behind Authelia[1] for authentication to view so many images effectively. For uploading, I'd been using Nextcloud but it began to noticeably lag after a few thousand images. I switched to FileRun[2] with symlink'd photo directories and a user for each family.

With HomeGallery, I get the desired performance on mobile devices with de-duplication and tagging. My instance is detecting objects fine, but I owe it troubleshooting time to figure out face recognition. The "similar images" feature can be fun with so many photos. A nice tagging modal on keybind per-image would be a nice-to-have.

Using FileRun for uploads works fine, but I also needed a continuous cron job for docker exec to generate any missing thumbnails.

I would recommend home gallery or time theme for typecho, did a quick research after seeing this post since I also want to personally host one :), but just a quick reminder that the latter one is a theme for a blog CMS called typecho yet it mostly targets the Chinese community, it might be a bit tricky for setting up typecho & its affiliated widgets and etc, but once you get it done, enjoy. However I'm personally not a huge fan of "dynamic" webpages that requires a server, so if you got any updates on a STATIC gallery that could host on a serverless platform like netlify, please let me know! (Also don't forget to use a reliable CDN provider for your image serving, or else the images loading speed will be slow as fuck if users are out of the area where your server is located.)

I'm so close to being a full-time mblaze user, it is truly excellent. There is something so smart about being able to use your standard shell tooling and interaction facilities to interact with mail. It is like everything that was a good idea with mh¹/nmh decades ago, just better all round and with a nicer message format.

Even if you don't like the idea of using command line tools as your MUA, you can easily make mblaze interactive with common tooling. For example, you could use mlist via fzf along with its --preview window as pretty awesome interactive client. Everything works as you'd expect, and you have all the power of every single tool you use to mangle that mail at any point.

I just seem to fall back in to mutt too easily in the end, I can't get over the final hump. I've even implemented a chunk of mimicry bindings so that I shouldn't even notice, but mutt pulls me back in for "that one minor feature" every now and then. I've been doing this dance for at least a few years at this point², but I think it may be longer.

I combined mblaze (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze), fzf and standard UNIX tools to build my own CLI MUA in under 300 lines, most of which is shell scripts.

When UNIX is your platform you don't need a complex UI framework with thousands or millions of lines of codes, and you get to reuse knowledge you've already built elsewhere.

I need to write more about it

If you like Himalaya, you'll probably like mblaze as well (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze)

I also find fzf to be very good for building simple UIs. In fact I saw ways to do 80% of burgr with a few lines of fzf; composable tools really are the bee's knees

I self‐host mostly because local copies of things give me some privacy (sites won’t know what my IP is searching for), and it also lets me work easily when Comcast is down… which is annoyingly frequent in my neighborhood.

All of these machines are running OpenBSD, except the gaming machines and the HTPC.

• Outgoing Email: OpenSMTPD, with mandatory TLS. Since I’m the only one sending email from my domain, the outgoing relay is hidden behind my LAN and my DKIM keys never leave my network. Outgoing mail gets routed via Wireguard through a VPS so it doesn’t look like it’s coming from a residential IP block.

• Incoming Email: OpenSMTPD on my MXes, with MTA‐STS and DNSSEC/DANE so as many senders use TLS as possible. Delivers to Maildir on my LAN, which I access directly using mblaze over SSH (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze) and IMAP via Dovecot (which supports Maildir backend).

• Roundcube webmail.

• DNS zones: NSD running on two VPSes, slaves pulling their config via WireGuard from the master which runs in a VM on my LAN.

• Public webserver, with personal (public) homepage, Git repositories (clonable and browsable via CGit), photo gallery, files/images/random files when I need to share them by sending a link in IRC, etc.

• Matrix: Synapse for the server, Element for the client. Besides hanging out in Matrix rooms I use this for one‐on‐one audio calls with my friends (generate a link, send it to them, and chat through the browser).

• Pleroma, so I can interact with the Mastodon network.

• Apertium for text translation. The range of languages is a bit limited but for supported pairs it’s nice to avoid Google Translate.

• A home theater PC in my living room running Kodi, which pulls all my Blu‐Rays from a home NAS.

• A powerful gaming machine that uses Steam to stream games to either the HTPC or my Steam Deck. I only use this at home… I wonder how bad the latency would be if I connected to it when on a trip?

• My music collection, whether ripped from CD or bought digitally, is automatically tagged and sorted with Beets, and I run the web plugin to access it over the web. Beets’s web interface is kind of primitive; I would love to replace it with something like FunkWhale.

• Full mirrors of websites with free content: Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, Wiktionary, Stack Overflow, Project Gutenberg, Standard Ebooks

• Full OpenBSD package mirrors

• OpenStreetMap, running OSRM (routing) on top of an open source Leaflet/Mapbox demo I set up years ago. I’ve been meaning to update this to something more modern and less reliant on Mapbox software.

• Radicale for CalDAV/CardDAV, so my calendar and contacts are synced across all my devices automatically.

• Home adblocking with Unbound (what most people use PiHole for I guess). DNS lookups for my home network are anonymized with DoH over Tor (CloudFlare provides documentation for how to do this).

• Ways to access my home network when away from home: WireGuard VPN in a roadwarrior configuration; public‐facing SSH (with WebAuthn‐backed keys); failing that, an HTTPS proxy with Squid. (Yes, I have been stuck at conferences where the wifi network blocked SSH, WireGuard, and all traffic that wasn’t HTTP/HTTPS or DNS from the blessed server!)

You're probably looking for notmuch, which integrates very well with other tools. There's also mblaze (https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze) that might be of interest.

For parsing mails in the shell mblaze can be nice sometimes: https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze

mblaze is nice once you get used to it. Pretty neat how you can compose simple pipelines interactively or just using simple scripts for repetitive tasks.

Aerc looks amazing, but I am still waiting for threading support before making the jump [1]. To the best of my knowledge, it supports everything else I would need.

My current stack is: Mutt, Neovim, fdm, msmtp, Syncthing, notmuch, lynx (for HTML conversion), mblaze [2] (for scripting), and a tiny pair of scripts to snooze and unsnooze e-mails. Here is an interesting observation, although a pipeline like this may look terrifying, it makes swapping in Aerc to take it for a spin trivial since it all interacts with a Maildir.

There is also mblaze https://github.com/leahneukirchen/mblaze if you are so inclined.
