Synology

This is a place for all topics regarding Synology hard- and software - especially (but not limited to) their NAS devices.

Just one thing: Let’s please be pleasant to each other and respect that people have different experience levels. Some are pros, some are noobs, yet everybody may have good ideas or interesting questions to ask and comments to make, and all of these shall be heard and appreciated. ❤️


And since we know from TV that all IT nerds 🤓 are h4xx0rs and wear hoodies all the time (if not even ski masks) in front of their computers, I chose an appropriate banner image (image credit).

I built a simple node js/docker app that uses the unofficial api to fetch photos in a selected timeframe, then send an email with working web links to those photos.

For example, you'll get a daily/weekly/or monthly email with links to any photo in the past within that given day/week/month.

I've only tested it on my NAS (using quickconnect), so I'd love any feedback/suggestions.

The memories feature was the only thing I missed after switching from google photos, so I figured this would be an easy to implement solution.

The docker image is in the docker hub registry, so it's pretty easy to get up running by hosting it on your NAS. You'll just need to add the environment variables. Instructions are in the github readme.

I started building it just as a solution for myself, but figured others might find it useful. Let me know if there are any mistakes or features you'd like to see added! Feel free to open a github issue and make a PR.

Oh man, I've got a J model and sometimes I hate that it can't run docker containers. This is definitely one of those moments.
