PhotoDB / AudioDB can and must be individually configured to your own specific needs. For this, a YAML file called config.yaml is used. Open the config.yaml file located in the PhotoDB root directory to see what a PhotoDB configuration file might look like.

In the next chapters, you will learn how to adapt this file to setup your very own local or global PhotoDB instance.

NOTE: PhotoDB /AUdioDB is meant to be used as a collaborative tool that can be acessed via the internet. For this purpose you need to configure some server and HTTP(S) settings, that cannot be explained in detail in this manual.
Alternatively, PhotoDB can be set up locally, e.g., to get a first impression of the software.
You may skip server and HTTP(S) configuration if you just want so set up a local instance, but you always need to configure basic PhotoDB settings.
