Dang it I finally literally just updated yesterday after not updating for like six months and being lazy haha.
Nice new features though and no breaking changes so no big deal. Just update it again today, I guess.
I wish I could set my Immich Docker image to a specific version other than ‘latest’ and let Watchtower update it automatically. Perhaps it would be helpful to have a major release for every breaking change.
I don’t use Watchtower, but many images follow semver so setting the version to something that you feel comfortable with can help.
I use podman and set my images to auto-update, and I just use a tag that’s broad enough to probably not break stuff with the auto-updates.
I love the new features. It’s the small things, like locating an image on your timeline from an album, that make a difference. The improvements to external library scanning are promising. When I transfer my DSLR images to the Immich external library, it used to miss a few images, and I always had to rescan manually. I hope this update fixes that issue.
I’m going to have to let this loosen my photo collection! Looks awesome!
How far away is stable release? Timeline says early 2025 which is kind of now. Tbh I might install it now anyway, doesnt seem to be many breaking changes anymore
What has to be fixed for me to use it in production is the apps connection to the back end to not break every time it’s updated. Because on iOS app updates are forced, but the server I update less frequently and if they’re not the same version the app doesn’t work.
For what it’s worth, I only ever had that be a problem once in the past year I’ve been using Immich. And I don’t update more than once a month. I think it is uncommon anymore for them to release updates for the app that are incompatible with various sever version iterations.
The only thing that breaks is my PC when I try to run most jobs concurrently. Just be patient with it. I’m using external libraries instead of importing directly to immich storage
Is external libraries just a volume mount outside of the config? In that case I would probably do the same with photos stored on my NAS
That’s right. I use unraid so I have my photo external share mounted as /library and immich uploads as a /immich_photos share.
