LibrePhotosOS

An out of the box Raspberry Pi distro with LibrePhotos installed.

Where to get it?

You can use the pi-imager commuity raspberrypi imager here, unofficial section.

Or download directly form the official mirror here

How to use it?

  1. Unzip the image and install it to an SD card like any other Raspberry Pi image
  2. Configure your WiFi by editing LibrePhotosOS-wpa-supplicant.txt at the root of the flashed card when using it like a flash drive
  3. Boot the Pi from the SD card
  4. Hostname is librephotosos (not raspberrypi as usual), username: ubuntu and inital password is: ubuntu
  5. After a few mintues you should be able to access http://librephotosos.local/ or http://librephotosos.lan/
  6. You can change the settings of the docker settings are located at /boot/docker-compose/librephotos/

Requirements

  • Raspberrypi 3 and above, needs a 64bit capable pi
  • 2A power supply

Features

  • LibrePhotos
  • Automatically mounts hard drive attached to Pi and links librephotos to the "librephotos" folder on that drive

Developing

Requirements

  1. Docker or Vagrant, docker recommended
  2. Docker-compose - recommended if using docker build method, instructions assume you have it
  3. Downloaded Raspbian Lite image.
  4. Root privileges for chroot
  5. Bash
  6. sudo (the script itself calls it, running as root without sudo won't work)

Build LibrePhotosOS

LibrePhotosOS can be built using docker running either on an intel or RaspberryPi (supported ones listed). Build requires about 4.5 GB of free space available. You can build it assuming you already have docker and docker-compose installed issuing the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/guysoft/LibrePhotosOS.git
cd LibrePhotosOS/src/image
wget -c --trust-server-names 'https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/20.04.4/release/ubuntu-20.04.4-preinstalled-server-arm64+raspi.img.xz'
cd ..
sudo docker-compose up -d
sudo docker exec -it librephotosos-build build

Building LibrePhotosOS Variants

LibrePhotosOS supports building variants, which are builds with changes from the main release build. An example and other variants are available in the folder src/variants/example.

To build a variant use:

sudo docker exec -it LibrePhotosOS-build build [Variant]

Building Using Vagrant

There is a vagrant machine configuration to let build LibrePhotosOS in case your build environment behaves differently. Unless you do extra configuration, vagrant must run as root to have nfs folder sync working.

To use it:

sudo apt-get install vagrant nfs-kernel-server
sudo vagrant plugin install vagrant-nfs_guest
sudo modprobe nfs
cd LibrePhotosOS/src/vagrant
sudo vagrant up

After provisioning the machine, its also possible to run a nightly build which updates from devel using:

cd LibrePhotosOS/src/vagrant
run_vagrant_build.sh

To build a variant on the machine simply run:

cd LibrePhotosOS/src/vagrant
run_vagrant_build.sh [Variant]

Usage

  1. If needed, override existing config settings by creating a new file src/config.local. You can override all settings found in src/config. If you need to override the path to the Raspbian image to use for building LibrePhotosOS, override the path to be used in ZIP_IMG. By default, the most recent file matching *-raspbian.zip found in src/image will be used.
  2. Run src/build_dist as root.
  3. The final image will be created in src/workspace

Code contribution would be appreciated!
