Gossa is an open source tool for managing and organizing photographs. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Gossa on Windows 10.

Prerequisites

Before installing Gossa, you will need to install the following software:

• Git
• Docker

Step 1: Download Gossa

To download Gossa, you will need to clone the Gossa repository from GitHub. To do this, open the command prompt and run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/pldubouilh/gossa.git

This will download the Gossa source code to your local machine.

Step 2: Install Docker

Next, you will need to install Docker on your system. Go to the Docker website and download the appropriate version for your operating system. Once the installation is complete, make sure Docker is running in the background.

Step 3: Build the Gossa Docker Image

Navigate to the Gossa directory using the command prompt:

cd gossa

Then, run the following command to build the Gossa Docker image:

docker build -t gossa .

This will build the Docker image for Gossa. The process may take a few minutes to complete.

To run the Gossa Docker container, use the following command:

docker run --name gossa -d -p 3000:3000 -v $(pwd)/db:/app/db -v $(pwd)/data:/app/data gossa

This will create a Docker container named "gossa" and map port 3000 to allow access to the Gossa web interface. Additionally, two volumes are created to store the database and uploaded photographs.
