Any photos included in /photos will be presented as galleries split by month. Config settings are persistent and stored into /config.

Usage

To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  pixapop:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/pixapop:latest
    container_name: pixapop
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
      - APP_USERNAME=admin #optional
      - APP_PASSWORD=admin #optional
    volumes:
      - /path/to/config:/config
      - /path/to/photos:/photos
    ports:
      - 80:80
    restart: unless-stopped

docker cli (click here for more info)

docker run -d \
  --name=pixapop \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -e APP_USERNAME=admin `#optional` \
  -e APP_PASSWORD=admin `#optional` \
  -p 80:80 \
  -v /path/to/config:/config \
  -v /path/to/photos:/photos \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  lscr.io/linuxserver/pixapop:latest

Parameters

Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

Ports (-p)

Parameter Function
80 WebUI

Environment Variables (-e)

Env Function
PUID=1000 for UserID - see below for explanation
PGID=1000 for GroupID - see below for explanation
TZ=Europe/London Specify a timezone to use EG Europe/London.
APP_USERNAME=admin Specify a username to enable authentication.
APP_PASSWORD=admin Specify a password to enable authentication.

Volume Mappings (-v)

Volume Function
/config Stores config and logs for nginx base.
/photos Your local folder of photos.

Miscellaneous Options

Parameter Function

Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.

As an example:

-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword

Will set the environment variable PASSWORD based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretpassword file.

Umask for running applications

For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022 setting. Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.

User / Group Identifiers

When using volumes (-v flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:

  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)

Docker Mods

We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
