I would like to have a central Calendar that I could sync everything to it, from my email calendars and my to do list, is there something like that selfhosted or not, that is FOSS?
(except I manually sort through my photos on a semi-weekly basis before I upload it to Immich).
I think that would be a better approach if I weren't very lazy, I think even after the initial run I could do that since I don't take lots of pictures but I was thinking about a fire and forget sort of thing.
If you want, I can cook up a little Python script you could stick into Cron to do all the tasks you described.
Thank you so much, I asked ChatGPT and it generated the bat file below (since I'm using Windows) do you think this would work?
@echo off
REM Change directory to your photos folder
cd /d "C:\path\to\your\photos\folder"
REM Sync files to backup folder
robocopy . "C:\path\to\your\Camera_Backup" /mir /xo
REM Delete files older than 15 days
forfiles /p "C:\path\to\your\photos\folder" /s /m *.* /d -15 /c "cmd /c if @isdir==FALSE del @file"
REM Upload assets using immich cli
immich upload "C:\path\to\your\Camera_Backup" -r -a --delete
Thank you. First person to not advise me to use something other than immich for this. And thanks for the heads up about the CLI, can you share the upload script?
Although, it will try to upload all photos every time
I will use the argument which makes it delete after upload, this way if it wasn't deleted then it wasn't uploaded and needs to be uploaded, hopefully the CLI is smart to do so.
I want it to use the folder name as album name, I was hoping that it would do the same for nested folders
I just noticed something else that is mildly annoying, after I move them to album I have to run the template migration job to move to the correct folder.
I’m not sure how you’d automate deleting stuff while making sure you’re not deleting items that haven’t been sent yet
Yeah this will be very tricky, I'm thinking if I got over the initial push to Immich, I just delete manually from my phone when I see things have already moved to Immich and I don't need it anymore.
Another good practice (at least I’d like to think so), my syncthing-int which sends everything to /photo_libraries also sends everything to two other backup folders that are pinned to separate discs. So if I have a drive failure or multiple drive failures I’d still have a copy of all the photos/albums.
I will do that to ensure I've backed everything up somewhere in case an Immich Failure.
I tried to add what's in the docs.syncthing using the GUI but it failed, I wasn't sure if I should modify something inside the ngnix docker container or not.
In Syncthing logs the difference between success and fail

Does syncthing have a domain name specified
I can't find an option to do so
In GUI you can change the port of the GUI and that's what I did, so I can right now actually access it using 192.168.1.2:9101 and it works. Do you have NPM configured in anyway other than pointing? have you made any changes in Syncthing itself to give it a domain name or an address?
I have it set to 0.0.0.0, and I can access it from another pc using the ip:port address. But when I try to access using the domain name it shows the login page but I can't login, it just refresh the page and I can see the error above in the logs.
Thank you for the* so much wanted advice, it's one of the reasons I actually posted this, to get advices on how to do things better.
I've been trying to do that for a specific service running (firefly) but I can't figure out what to do exactly, about the domain name, Is there a way to do that without one?
I used chatgpt to create the exact steps, commands and configurations I needed for my setup and achieved this the seemingly cheatful way. I used nginx and certbot. Worked like a charm. Congrats!
It's impressive that you was able to get it to help you correctly. It usually just spew things i need to fix that's why I didn't ask him, thank you for the tip.
Btw did you use a custom local domain name or did you use an actual domain ?
Yea I'm using Homarr, I've just finished setting everything up. The only problem I have right now is that I can't access Syncthing GUI through the domain.
I can access using the local ip but I can't access using the ssl domain, I can access it but I can't login for some reason. I can't figure out how to fix it
What Calendar and To Do solution do you recommend?
I would like to have a central Calendar that I could sync everything to it, from my email calendars and my to do list, is there something like that selfhosted or not, that is FOSS?
Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?
I would like new images to be uploaded to Immich from my phone and deleted after 30 days automatically, so I was thinking about this flow:...
[solved] Can’t login to Syncthing GUI with Ngnix Proxy Manager
Edit: Solution is in Nginx I disabled these: Cache Assets, Block Common Exploits, Websockets Support....
Finally got my server to work properly. (Routing with custom local domain instead of ports) ( programming.dev )
I spent all day today trying to get the routing to work correctly between Tailscale, Nginx and Adguard....
How are you making services remotely accessible? ( kbin.run )
I need help figuring out where I am going wrong or being an idiot, if people could point out where......
