# Home assistant add-on: Photoprism
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!

## Using Photoprism Command-Line Interface
Photoprism also provides a command line interface:
https://docs.photoprism.app/getting-started/docker-compose/#command-line-interface
You can access it via portainer addon or executing `docker exec -it <photoprism container id> bash` via _ssh_.
:warning: Do not use `docker exec <photoprism container id> photoprism` as this will lead to unpredictable behavior.
