Nowadays, the privatization and deployment of lightweight chart bed/gallery system has become a high-frequency demand of more and more users. MT Photos is a self-hosted chart bed/gallery system that is very suitable for running in a Docker environment.

MT Photos is based on Node.js and Vue. The interface is simple and beautiful. It supports multi-user rights management, multi-directory mounting, batch upload, label classification, picture comments, thumbnail automatic generation and other functions. The overall experience is very smooth. Whether it is to build a private map bed, blog map source, work material library, or for team picture management, it can be competent.

The following content will take the Windows Docker environment as an example, take you to complete the local deployment of MT Photos, and combine Aweray Aweseed with remote networking to solve the pain point of "remote access without public network IP!

1. MT Photos on-premises with Docker

MT Photos is based on Docker deployment and supports docker-compose installation. MT Photos can be deployed as long as there is a Docker environment, whether on Qunhui, Wei Unicom, Green Union, Feiniu, UNRAID NAS, or on Windows and Linux hosts.

At present, the official website provides tutorials. If you want to know more about it, you can move to MT Photos official website. The following method is to pull the Docker image to realize quick installation in the Windows system.

The first step is to confirm that Docker has been installed in the system and create the following directories required by MT Photos.

In the second step, run the Docker command with one click to automatically pull the image and complete the installation.

After the deployment is completed, open the browser to access the localhost:8063, and you can enter the management background of MT Photos!

2. the use of Aweray Aweseed remote networking, remote remote access to MT Photos

Since MT Photos is usually deployed on the host or NAS in the home, and most home broadband does not provide public network IP, or does not have optical cat management rights, port forwarding settings cannot be performed, which leads to the map bed/gallery service can only be accessed within the LAN. Once you leave the home network, you can't view or upload pictures remotely.

At this time, you only need to use Aweray Aweseed SD-WAN-based remote networking to quickly realize remote access, which is not only simple, safe and reliable, but also supports direct access.

Remote networking mode 1: each device installs a Aweray Aweseed client and logs in to the same Aweray account

Go to the Aweray official website to download the Aweray Aweseed client (supporting Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linux, Docker and various NAS), install the client on the MT Photo server and log in to the Aweray account.

If remote devices need to access MT Photo in different places, they can also download Aweray Aweseed clients, install and log in the same Aweray account, and can automatically network. Subsequently, it can be accessed by Aweray the virtual IP address service port number of the MT Photo server in the Aweseed client.

Through the above content, we have completed the rapid deployment of Docker in MT Photos chart bed/gallery system, and realized remote access anytime and anywhere with the help of Aweray Aweseed remote networking. If you are also looking for a high-value, lightweight, easy-to-use map bed tool, try MT Photos!
