Release v1.130.0 · immich-app/immich
-
Well damn I just added a massive external library a week ago and it took ages... Awesome improvements!
-
How far away is stable release? Timeline says early 2025 which is kind of now. Tbh I might install it now anyway, don't seem to be many breaking changes anymore

If you have an existing photo library somewhere on a drive, and load it in immich keeping its own folder structure. In the docker compose file you map the external library to the container.
It keeps folder structure now? I remember when I tried to import my Digikam/Piwigo based collection, it would dump it all into 1 album flattening the hierarchy if directories.IIRC this was a technical decision on Immich choosing to use a list of albums vs a folder hierarchy. I'll need to give it another try if it's changed

On the drive your hierarchy is kept as it is if you use the external library feature. In this realease you can even browse the folder structure on mobile.
In Immich I did have to reorder all photos to their own albums, although I think there is a function that does this based on the folder structure. I did not try this however.

The only thing that breaks is my PC when I try to run most jobs concurrently. Just be patient with it. I'm using external libraries instead of importing directly to immich storage

Is external libraries just a volume mount outside of the config? In that case I would probably do the same with photos stored on my NAS

That's right. I use unraid so I have my photo external share mounted as /library and immich uploads as a /immich_photos share.

What has to be fixed for me to use it in production is the apps connection to the back end to not break every time it’s updated. Because on iOS app updates are forced, but the server I update less frequently and if they’re not the same version the app doesn’t work.

you could use dockcheck, it has this feature:
-d N Only update to new images that are N+ days old.Dockcheck is the way to go

For what it's worth, I only ever had that be a problem once in the past year I've been using Immich. And I don't update more than once a month. I think it is uncommon anymore for them to release updates for the app that are incompatible with various sever version iterations.
