# Photon Screenshot Dashboard
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
A modern, self-hosted PHP screenshot and media management dashboard with powerful organization features, sharing capabilities, and a clean web interface.
|
||
|
||
The project consists of three main components:
|
||
|
||
1. **Photon Dashboard** (`photon`): Web interface for managing screenshots.
|
||
2. **Photon Worker** (`worker`): Background processing and file scanning.
|
||
3. **MariaDB Database** (`db`): Stores metadata and application data.
|
||
|
||
Keep up-to-date on new releases by following the [changelog](./changelog.md).
|
||
|
||
## Features
|
||
|
||
- **Smart Organization**: Organize screenshots with folders and tags.
|
||
- **Advanced Search**: Find images quickly by name or content using OCR.
|
||
- **Easy Sharing**: Built-in public sharing URLs.
|
||
- **Media Support**: JPG, PNG, GIF, and MP4 (experimental) file support.
|
||
- **Bulk Operations**: Select and manage multiple files at once.
|
||
- **Sorting Options**: Sort by date, size, or filename.
|
||
- **Trash Management**: Safe deletion with trash functionality.
|
||
- **Background Processing**: Dedicated worker for compression and OCR processing.
|
||
- **Database Storage**: MariaDB backend for reliable data persistence.
|
||
|
||
An external authentication proxy is recommended to protect your dashboard from unwanted eyes.
