  [Photoshow][appurl] is gallery software at its easiest, it doesn't even require a database.

  ## Usage

  ```
  docker create \
  --name=photoshow \
  -v <path to data>:/config \
  -v <path to pictures>:/Pictures:ro \
  -v <path to store thumbs>:/Thumbs \
  -e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid> \
  -e TZ=<timezone> \
  -p 80:80 \
  linuxserver/photoshow
  ```

  ## Parameters

  `The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side.
  For example with a port -p external:internal - what this shows is the port mapping from internal to external of the container.
  So -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080
  http://192.168.x.x:8080 would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 80.`


  * `-p 80` - port for the webui
  * `-v /config` - stores config and logs for nginx base
  * `-v /Pictures` - your local folder of photos you wish to share
  * `-v /Thumbs` - local folder to store thumbnails of your images
  * `-e PGID` for GroupID - see below for explanation
  * `-e PUID` for UserID - see below for explanation
  * `-e TZ` - for timezone information *eg Europe/London, etc*

  It is based on alpine linux with s6 overlay, for shell access whilst the container is running do `docker exec -it photoshow /bin/bash`.

  ### User / Group Identifiers

  Sometimes when using data 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 the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will "just work" ™.

  In this instance `PUID=1001` and `PGID=1001`. To find yours use `id user` as below:

  ```
    $ id <dockeruser>
      uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)
  ```

  ## Setting up the application

  On first run create an admin account, any folder and its subfolders that you map to /Pictures will be presented as a webgallery. Config settings are persistent and stored as a subfolder of the /Thumbs mapping.


  ## Info

  * To monitor the logs of the container in realtime `docker logs -f photoshow`.


  * container version number

  `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' photoshow`

  * image version number

  `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' linuxserver/photoshow`
