Able to migrate/"upload" files already in the upload directory?
Hello Alex (and team?)
Have been following this project for a few weeks now, and really like it thus far despite the minor issues.
Unfortunately, I accidentally nuked the VM on my proxmox that i was running it on trying to adjust some configurations and so I do not have the db files to restore. However, the photos are still in the upload directory in the template format. I've created a new instance and have a fresh immich installed (through docker as well).
Would I be able to somehow link the existing folders to the newly (re)created users, or is there a way to migrate/"upload"/link again? Hope that's clear!
Summary of my setup: ubuntu vm in proxmox with a mounted folder to my NAS which contains the upload directory. I also previously used the cli tool to mass upload the photos!
Sorry if this has been asked before / if it is not clear enough! Do let me know!
I would also like to contribute to the project if I happen to be free in the future! 🙂
