# Run imgs in Docker

Clone repository and edit **imgs.ini**.

Build Docker image:

```shell
docker build --tag imgs .
```

Run container from image. Replace **/path/to/your/uploads/dir** with path to directory where you want to store images:

```shell
docker run -d \
    --name imgs \
    --publish 127.0.0.1:5000:5000 \
    --volume /path/to/your/uploads/dir:/opt/imgs/uploads \
    imgs
```

imgs will launched on `127.0.0.1:5000`. Set up reverse proxy server. I recommed to use basic authentication to prevent abuses. Nginx virtual host example:

```nginx
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name yourdomain.tld;
    root /path/to/imgs/root;

    location / {
        auth_basic "Authentication required";
        auth_basic_user_file /path/to/.htpasswd;
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
    }

    location ~* ^/favicon.ico$ {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~* \..* {
        auth_basic off;
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
    }
}
```

# Additional

imgs has a simple CLI tool based on curl. Copy **imgs** script to your PATH.

```

## Nautilus integration

Push files to your imgs instance via GNOME Files (former name: Nautilus). Depends on: curl, libnotify (notify-send utility).
