mash-playbook VS dupeguru

Sometimes the easiest and quickest way to try (or even deploy) a new service is by using the recommended docker-compose-setup that they often have as an example. But if you have an existing infrastructure, like we do with the great mother of all self-hosting ansible playbooks, this isn't always easy to integrate. In particular when that infrastructure is managed and started and stopped independently from the additional docker-compose you intend to add. Lucky, who is running their out-most proxy using traefik, because with just a few extra labels your docker-compose becomes available TLS-certs included.

Yes! And don't forget MASH [0], its a collection of Ansible roles that is compatible with the Matrix Docker Ansible Deploy playbook. In case you want to add more services to your Matrix server.

This is why I like https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/mash-playbook and its associated Ansible roles for configuring various services.

All the portability of Docker, plus (something close to) the ease of use of installing a distro package like an .rpm or .deb.

I use Authentik. Is speaks LADP, OICD, OAUTH and SAML so most use cases are already included. For everything else there is the option of using a proxy provider with an appropriate webserver that uses [Forward aut](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/forwardauth/). I never used Forward Auth but the general setup is discussed here: https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/mash-playbook/issues/50

I used to use DupeGuru which has some photo-specific dupe detection where you can fuzzy match image dupes based on content: https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/

But I switched over to czkawka, which has a better interface for comparing files, and seems to be a bit faster: https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka

Unfortunately, neither of these are integrated into Photoprism, so you still have to do some file management outside the database before importing.

I also haven't used Photoprism extensively yet (I think it's running on one of my boxes, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up), but I did find that it wasn't really built for file-based libraries. It's a little more heavyweight, but my research shows that Nextcloud Memories might be a better choice for me (it's not the first-party Nextcloud photos app, but another one put together by the community): https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/memories

If your photos are exact duplicates you can also use the freeware dupeGuru app.

If you want a some other GUI options, AllDup or DupeGuru might be of interest. AllDup has a rather weird interface, though, imo.

I used DupeGuru (https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/) in the past but I'm not sure it's the best solution for you. Try it, it's open-source.

dupeGuru

dupeGuru is a graphical application available for macOS that can scan multiple drives and identify duplicate files based on various criteria like name, size, and content https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/
