[Photoshow][photoshowurl] 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**

* `-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`.
