Well I might not have been clear about my setup. I use Perkeep for my personal use and store a lot of my images already. However I want my family to see some of those images as well so I thought I could put links to those images on my local website/gallery/webapp and have Perkeep serve them other than duplicate that data.
I use Perkeep for my ebook collection as well and whilst I want all ebooks to be readable within my home network I do not want to open Perkeep's ui since there are personal files as well on that instance. Sorry for being not clear enough as to what I want to achieve. I use Minio on my public facing server so I do not have to take care of putting a file in the right collection which is nice. Was thinking Perkeep could serve for this purpose in small/personal scale as well. Cheers On Friday, March 29, 2019 at 8:52:18 AM UTC, john.fuller wrote: > > There's a lot to grasp with Perkeep.
