A fork of szurubooru aimed at storing photos and videos taken with physical cameras.
The idea for this started in this issue. I wanted a self-hosted replacement for Google Photos. *If you're looking for one, also consider Immich. (I'm not affiliated with the project at all, I just think it's really cool and will be a much better replacement for this when it comes out. In fact I plan to build a migration tool when it does.)
- Date taken
- Automatically extracts the date and time when the photo was taken from its EXIF metadata.
- Shown on the post sidebar
- Camera
- Automatically extracts the make and model of the camera used to take the photo
- Also shown on the post sidebar
- Also works with some videos
- EXIF orientation support
- Acknowledges EXIF orientation and generates thumbnails and post dimensions correctly
- Images with orientations other than 1 now render properly
- Date taken and Camera do not work with image formats that lack EXIF support (such as PNG) or have been stripped of EXIF metadata.
- The current migration does not regenerate post thumbnails or fixes post dimensions. This will be fixed in the next commit.
- This fork might be less stable than upstream, since the changes I've made have not been tested on as large of a scale.
See installation instructions.
More installation resources as well as related projects can be found on upstream's GitHub project Wiki.
This fork has reached the level of functionality I need for my personal use. As such, there are missing features that might be useful to some:
- Mass deletion support (will also implement this upstream when I get to it)
- Tests (honestly, I don't even want to touch these)
- Proper post merging
- Updated documentation
I am also planning to rewrite this fork's server in another language sometime in the future.
