v1.79.0

Highlights

Welcome to release v1.79.0 of Immich. This release introduces the most requested feature since the beginning of Immich; the ability to serve existing photos in a streamlined and easy-to-use manner. Not only that, this release packs a ton of other improvements that we hope you will like. Some of the highlights below

• Support for external libraries
• Set minimum detected face to show on your instance
• Notable fix: Video EXIF parsing
• Notable fix: Android background upload regression
• Notable fix: Jerky mobile's swipe behavior

Existing library support

Thanks to many months of hard work from @etnoy, @jrasm91, @danieldietzler. In this release, all assets will be part of a library. Existing assets are put in an “upload library” where all mobile uploads will be put. You can create an external library if you want to point Immich to your existing photos. Some basic features of the library mechanism are

• Supports creating multiple external libraries.
• Each library can recursively import one or more paths.
• Add exclude paths from being imported.

Complete documentation on how to use external libraries can be viewed here

Libraries, being a new top-level container, also allow us to develop more exciting features in the future.
