  • I think the issue might be that the config changes haven’t been properly committed. Docker container won’t just update based on docker compose config.

    docker container stop
    docker container rm
    

    You might want to delete and reset any settings which have been set

    docker volume ls
    docker volume rm (IDs from docker volume ls)
    

    (This will also wipe out any backups/accounts made on immich already tho)

    But once you have deleted the old containers, running docker compose up -d will start the containers with the new config. You can use docker compose logs -f to see the server logs and check if everything is working.


  • Okay wow. I looked into your repo and its a really interesting implementation of a DSL. I think I get what the code is trying to do? You run shimky through bash and it turns into python code? meta programming stuff! I think its a regular language? its hard to tell.

    So I’ve actually been studying DSLs for a few months and I can recommend some ways for you to improve this code if you want.











  • Nemo/most file explorers have a remote server option. For nemo, “Files > Connect to server”. Once configured, you should be able to view your server files from your file explorer and uploading files should be as easy as drag and drop. I’m pretty sure nautilis has something similar too!

    It’s not the best for security because if someone gets your computer, they can access your server through the file explorer. But it’s fast and convenient if you are already using your file explorer.





  • You are running fedora which is using the dnf package manager. The commands you mentioned (apt/ppa) are part of the apt (aptitude) package manager which is comes with Ubuntu.

    Apt is the command to install/manage packages on Ubuntu (and other distros that use apt). A ppa is a special way to tell apt where it can download packages from. It lets you a install 3rd party packages not provided by your distros default selection. It is specific to apt and will not work for dnf.

    This isn’t the end of the world and you can still install the package. Because these packages are open source, you can build the package from source. The instructions for which can be found on the github readme. Hopefully this cleared some things up!

    [Edit] done some poking around, and I managed to get it running on fedora. I had weird issues building it from scratch, so I did it in a janky way by downloading and extracting the deb (it had precompiled bin inside). Looks to be working tho I couldn’t test it because no qemu




  • I think both nix-env and flakes are designed with making package management easier. Nix-env tries to make it intuitive and familiar for new users. Flakes improve package management by simplifying the configuration.

    Personally I would love to see syntax highlighting, language server, code completion. Maybe all in a dedicated application which is configured to give the easiest experience for new users. If nix is intended to be managed through config files, then the experience of writing a config should be as easy as possible.
