Aggregate images taken this week, from previous years and presents them on a web page with slideshow.
When I migrated my photo collection from google photos to a locally hosted instance of photoprism, I missed the automatically generated slideshow feature of google photos, here it is now.
The meta information of all images are read at startup and cached in memory. When the slideshow is opened, images from this calendar week from previous years are displayed. If no images from the calendar year are found, random images are displayed.
Indexing scales with storage performance
Slideshow change scales with CPU performance
Since the binary is compiled completely statically, there are no dependencies on system libraries like glibc.
Download the latest release for your system from the releases page:
# Assuming you run a x86/x64 system, if not adjust the binary name to download
LATEST_VERSION=$(curl -L -s -H 'Accept: application/json' https://github.com/RouHim/this-week-in-past/releases/latest | \
sed -e 's/.*"tag_name":"\([^"]*\)".*/\1/') && \
curl -L -o this-week-in-past https://github.com/RouHim/this-week-in-past/releases/download/$LATEST_VERSION/this-week-in-past-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl && \
chmod +x this-week-in-past
Create a folder to store the application data:
mkdir data
