As someone who has and still used photoprism for over two years and donated heavily...steer clear. Their update cycle is slow and the things they keep adding don't seem helpful. Still no multi-user support. If you don't upload new photos via photoprism using WebDAV you have to make your own scripts to watch for changes and refresh which took a lot of time for me to setup.
I'm just going to start using Nextcloud and Memories app going forward.
Rsync
I'm uploading to a directory using syncthing. It's working perfectly fine without any scripts. I'm running Photoprism in a docker container.
So you have photoprism pointed to a folder but you push photos into the folder witb syncthing. How do you trigger the re-index or its somehow automatic? I run my photoprism in docker and I always had to manually trigger the index after changes to the folder.
Yes, exactly. I push photos into the "import folder" of Photoprism. I don't manually trigger the re-index but I restart photoprism at night using a cronjob. I am not using settings like "PHOTOPRISM_AUTO_IMPORT". Contact me if you need me to investigate more.
