Home assistant add-on: Piwigo

I maintain this and other Home Assistant add-ons in my free time: keeping up with upstream changes, HA changes, and testing on real hardware takes a lot of time (and some money). I use around 5-10 of my >110 addons so regularly I install test machines (and purchase some test services such as vpn) that I don't use myself to troubleshoot and improve the addons

If this add-on saves you time or makes your setup easier, I would be very grateful for your support!

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

Use the add-on env_vars option to pass extra environment variables (uppercase or lowercase names). See https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Add-Environment-variables-to-your-Addon-2 for details.

Webui can be found at http://homeassistant:81 or through the sidebar using Ingress. Configurations can be done through the app webUI, except for the following options.

Setup Steps

  1. Create a user and database for Piwigo in a MySQL/MariaDB server
  2. In the database setup page, use IP address rather than hostname
  3. Edit nginx configuration in /config/piwigo/nginx/site-confs for SSL (port 443)
  4. Self-signed keys are in /data/keys (replace with your own if needed)
  5. Edit configuration files in /config/piwigo for email settings
