So to be clear, if I just Update Stack and don't make any changes to the docker-compose or env files, I should have no issues with the change breaking my instance, correct? The "opt-in" process occurs when/if I make changes to the docker-compose and env files, correct? Sorry - a bit confused on this release. |

I usually only update the stack. But wouldn't it be advisable to make the switch regardless? Just in case future changes require changes to the config or env files? |

You can still update something in the docker compose or .env files without opting-in for this change. For example let's say you want to add an external library, then you can add this line Doing that will not make you opt-in for the above-mentioned breaking change. The breaking change will only happen if you modify the docker compose and .env with the modifications mentioned by Alex at the top of this page. |

The migration was actually easy to do, I think the release notes make it sound almost impossible. Everything was still there. I of course also took a backup just in case. |

All I did was docker cp immich_postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data <backup-location>
# Optionally (but recommended)
docker exec -t immich_postgres pg_dumpall --clean --if-exists --username=postgres > <backup-location>/dump.sql
docker compose stop
## Do the changes to the compose and .env as mentioned in the Release notes
# Copy the backup to the postgres folder (this should be same as the one you just put in .env)
cp -R <backup-location>/data postgres

Sorry for the noob question, but I am new to docker, and basically a hack… I have been updating Immich with “docker compose pull && docker compose up -d”. Will this opt me in to the breaking changes in 1.102? |

I'm far from being an expert and I'm freaking scared of breaking everything, so please, let me ask you: I'm using portaner. If my compose contained this: Then the last line should be changed to And I'll have to add to my ENV and remove Am I right ? |

If you do the changes you mentioned above, you also need to migrate your database from the docker volume BUT, you should migrate the volume only if you know what you are doing, and after making a backup of the database. You can also not change anything to your docker compose and environment file (i.e. not opting-in for this change), and you'll fine as well :) |

Thanks for your answer :)
But why should I migrate if I'm using the exact same location ? Edit: I wasn't using docker volume, but a binded volume on my hard drive, if that makes sense |

You're already doing what these changes suggest (using a bind mount instead of a named volume). You can make the changes you mention if you'd like, but what you have right now is fine too. |

I'm using unraid with docker-compose stack official method. What permissions and user id / group id should I use for the immich appdata folder / immich postgres database directory?

Wow, I never realized the official docker-compose was not already using the database as a local mount. Mine has been like this for a while. Now here is my 2-cents:
If people are interested, I could take in charge the task of creating a Wiki Page to develop this further (including the data restoration part, not covered above)... I cannot count the number of times I've dealt with backup creation and backup recovery of database and so on. Cheers, |

I recently upgraded to v1.102.3 and undertook the steps to remove pgdata and add location etc: I had already setup immich_db_dumper and had plenty of backups. However when I go to restore the backup, when I start Immich it just brings me to the Admin Registration page "Since you are the first user on the system, you will be assigned as the Admin and are responsible for administrative tasks, and additional users will be created by you." I have restored the backup by undertaking the following:
Can anyone suggest how to restore? |

Ah crap, you should have verified things are ok first before deleting it. Anyway, can you attach to the database and look at the user table to see if there is any entry? |

Can you look in the backup after unzipping it and see if the SQL contains your data correctly? Also can you send a screenshot of the import command you are using and resulting output if any |

I'm a bit late to the party here on posting this (as I had a bad illness for a couple weeks), but, I think the "upgrade to local postgres storage" is fairly straightforward. I've seen some posts indicating that, but, some of them lack some detail- so here goes... With the containers running, you can find the existing database location by doing the following: You can cut and paste the output of this command into your favorite text editor and search for "postgres". You should find something similar to this: I don't think its necessary to do a docker compose down (correct me if I'm wrong)- just stop the containers. This way you're not going to accidentally delete anything, and you can get a more accurate backup. To backup, just follow the docs: https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/quickstart.html https://immich.app/docs/guides/template-backup-script You can also do the pgdump in addition to this: The containers will have to be running for the pgdump At this point you should be ready to copy the database to a new location from the docker volume location to any location of your choosing on your machine. You should use rsync for this as it preserves permissions. You will most likely have to run as root I believe (or sudo). Don't use cp, its just asking for trouble and it will most likely break file permissions on the db files. Use the --dry-run option to test first. Note the trailing slash here on the source path makes a difference, use it!!! Stop the containers again before the database rsync copy When all looks good, execute the rsync (i.e. remove the dry-run option) Now you can backup your old docker compose yaml files just to be safe and compare them with the new ones. You can use cp for this :) Now compare the differences between the files in vscode or your favorite editor. The obvious ones will be the database location. Once you've merged your changes into the new docker compose files, simply run the 2 upgrade commands. If I've missed something, let me know. So far this is working for me. |

Important: Before proceeding, back up the database. In fact, I can also run it normally this way: docker compose stop
sudo su
cp -r /var/lib/docker/volumes/immich_pgdata/_data/* /home/myuser/immich-app/postgresThen, follow the official instructions to modify the docker compose downThen redeploy. |

Did you read all the release notes and also move the files properly, or did you just blindly apply the compose/env changes?
Asking for help ASAP is inappropriate. Everyone here is providing help voluntarily, especially Theo who is not part of the Immich team but just a very helpful user. |

v1.102.0
Caution
For people always pulling the latest compose file, this is a breaking change!
Disregarding the notes will result in (temporary) data loss!
Background
In the past, we've seen many cases where people accidentally deleted their Postgres data by (unintentionally) deleting the docker volume (e.g.,
docker compose down -v).This is unfortunate as there is no way to recover that data (if you don't have a backup, MAKE BACKUPS!).
We have been thinking about mounting the Postgres data to a local folder for a while but always hesitated, as this would break existing instances due to people not reading the change logs carefully. However, there have been too many issues, and we ultimately decided to make that change.
What do I have to do?
Nothing. You should only copy the compose file with every new release if we tell you to do so in the release notes. Generally, we don't recommend making changes to existing instances. If you have never had issues, attempting to migrate the data will put it at (an unnecessary) risk.
I want to migrate my docker volume to a local folder
Unfortunately there isn't a "proper" way to export a docker volume.
The recommended method is to mount the volume and the directory (you want to copy your data to) to an arbitrary container, get a shell inside that container and copy the folder manually.
Caution
Take backups before attempting this. Especially make sure you have a current database dump (
pg_dump)Warning
Do not use a directory under
/mntfor the postgres location if you are using WSL.Generally (on all operating systems) we recommend against using a network share for your database location. This is bound to break and cause all sorts of weird issues.
If you would like to opt-in to this change, there is an additional environment variable in the
.envfile as well as a modification in your existingdocker-compose.ymlfile.docker-compose.ymlfiledatabase: container_name: immich_postgres image: registry.hub.docker.com/tensorchord/pgvecto-rs:pg14-v0.2.0@sha256:90724186f0a3517cf6914295b5ab410db9ce23190a2d9d0b9dd6463e3fa298f0 environment: POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${DB_PASSWORD} POSTGRES_USER: ${DB_USERNAME} POSTGRES_DB: ${DB_DATABASE_NAME} volumes: - - pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data + - ${DB_DATA_LOCATION}:/var/lib/postgresql/data restart: always volumes: - pgdata: model-cache:.envfile[...] DB_HOSTNAME=immich_postgres DB_USERNAME=postgres DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich +DB_DATA_LOCATION=./postgresHighlights
Welcome to release version
v1.102.0of Immich. We reached 30,000 stars!!! Thank you so much for your continuous support. We are proud to bring you this release with a focus on QoL improvements and bug fixes across the web, mobile, and server. We hope you enjoy it. Some of the highlighted changes can be found below.In-app language settings
You can now keep your phone interface in a different language and have Immich's app in a different language with the new in-app language setting. It can be found in
Settings > Languages. After making the change, the new language will propagate across the app.Haptic feedback control
We added an option in the mobile app to disable haptic feedback. It can be found under
Settings > Preferences > Haptic FeedbackWeb album page's UI/UX enhancement
Album Grouping
With this new feature, albums can now be grouped by year or owner (or not grouped at all). This can be very useful to not get lost when having a lot of albums, that even are sometimes similar.
Group bydrop-down is located next to theSort byone. The two buttons on the right areExpand allandCollapse all. They are not displayed whenNo groupingis selected.Collapse.mp4

Album List
Download,Edit,ShareandDelete.EditandRemovebuttons have been removed).Download.Album View
Set as album cover.AV1 transcoding
This release adds support for the next-gen AV1 format using the SVT-AV1 encoder. AV1 promises smaller files at the same quality as the other codecs we support, especially for high resolution videos. Note that client support for AV1 is more limited, so we recommend trying it on one (server-only) video and confirming it plays before transcoding your full library with it.
New image settings
Before this release, all preview images were JPEG, and all thumbnails were WebP. This is now customizable, so you can set them as you like. This also paves the way for adding other formats with minimal change.
There's also a new option to use the embedded preview in RAW images instead of converting the RAW image itself. This is particularly useful if the converted images from a camera don't look quite right or if you have custom-developed previews you'd like to use instead.
Option to fill the screen with slideshows view
We added a new option in the slideshow settings to fill the screen with the slideshow view, this will give you a more immersive viewing experience.
And as always, bugs are fixed, and many other improvements also come with this release.
Please consider supporting the project.
