About

Piwigo is a photo gallery software for the Web. This addon is based on the docker image from linuxserver.io.

Installation

The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in comparison to installing any other Hass.io add-on.

1. Add my Hass.io add-ons repository to your Hass.io instance.
2. Install this add-on.
3. Click the Save button to store your configuration.
4. Start the add-on.
5. Check the logs of the add-on to see if everything went well.
6. Carefully configure the add-on to your preferences, see the official documentation for for that.

Configuration

1. You must create a user and database for piwigo to use in a mysql/mariadb server.
2. In the setup page for database, use the ip address rather than hostname.
3. A basic nginx configuration file can be found in /config/piwigo/nginx/site-confs, edit the file to enable ssl (port 443 by default), set servername etc.
4. Self-signed keys are generated the first time you run the container and can be found in /data/keys, if needed, you can replace them with your own.
5. The easiest way to edit the configuration file is to go in /config/piwigo from home assistant local files editor to configure email settings etc.
