🦋 immich-go(1) 🦋

okay so bestie, you've landed on the manual page for immich-go — and specifically, this is the immich-go-archive-from-picasa era. It's giving "I have a Picasa folder and I need it in my Immich library, like, yesterday." We got you. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

immich-go-archive-from-picasa — Upload photos from a Picasa folder or zip file 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

immich-go archive from-picasa [flags] ...

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Upload photos from a Picasa folder or zip file. That's the whole vibe. You point it at a Picasa folder (or a zip of one) and it does the uploading thing for you. No cap. 🌸

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --album-path-joiner=" / " — the string it glues multiple folder names together with when it's building an album name (e.g. ' ', ' - '). Default is chillin' at " / ".
  • --album-picasa[=true] — use the Picasa album name it finds in the .picasa.ini file 💖
  • --ban-file — exclude a file based on a pattern (case-insensitive, so don't come for it about capitalization 🙈). Can be specified multiple times. The default patterns are exactly:
'@eaDir/', '@__thumb/', 'SYNOFILETHUMB.', 'Lightroom Catalog/', 'thumbnails/', '.DSStore', '/.*', '.Spotlight-V100/', '.photostructure/', 'Recently Deleted/'
  • --date-from-name[=true] — use the date from the filename if the date isn't available in the metadata. Heads up, this only works for jpg, mp4, heic, dng, cr2, cr3, arw, raf, nef, mov — the rest of the file types are not invited to this party.
  • --date-range=unset — only import photos taken within the specified date range ⭐
  • --exclude-extensions= — comma-separated list of extension to exclude. (e.g. .gif,.PM) (default: none) 🚫
  • --folder-as-album=NONE — import all files in albums defined by the folder structure. Can be set to 'FOLDER' to use the folder name as the album name, or 'PATH' to use the full path as the album name.
  • --folder-as-tags[=false] — use the folder structure as tags, (ex: the file holiday/summer 2024/file.jpg will have the tag holiday/summer 2024) 🏷️
  • -h, --help[=false] — help for from-picasa. Your bestie when you forget everything. 😭
  • --ignore-sidecar-files[=false] — don't upload sidecar with the photo.
  • --include-extensions= — comma-separated list of extension to include. (e.g. .jpg,.heic) (default: all) ✅
  • --include-type= — single file type to include. (VIDEO or IMAGE) (default: all)
  • --into-album="" — specify an album to import all files into 🎀
  • --recursive[=true] — explore the folder and all its sub-folders. Yes queen, go deep. 💜

✨ OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS ✨

these ones come from the parent command, but they're still iconic:

  • --concurrent-tasks=16 — number of concurrent tasks (1-20) 🔥
  • --config="" — config file (default is ./immich-go.yaml)
  • --dry-run[=false] — dry run 👀
  • -l, --log-file="" — write log messages into the file
  • --log-level="INFO" — log level (DEBUG|INFO|WARN|ERROR), default INFO
  • --log-type="text" — log formatted as text of JSON file
  • --on-errors=stop — what to do when an error occurs (stop, continue, accept N errors at max)
  • --save-config[=false] — save the configuration to immich-go.yaml
  • -w, --write-to-folder="" — path where to write the archive
