# Quick start
|
|
|
|
PicHost is a self-hosted image host for NAS, home servers, or VPS. Docker is recommended; the first visit runs a web wizard to create the admin account.
|
|
|
|
## Try it online
|
|
|
|
| Branch | Notes |
|
|
| ------ | ----- |
|
|
| **main** | No public demo — see [screenshots](./index.md#screenshots) or the repository README |
|
|
| **cloudflare** | R2-only live demo: [pic.roven.cc](https://pic.roven.cc) |
|
|
|
|
## Docker (recommended)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -d \
|
|
--name pichost \
|
|
-p 6892:6892 \
|
|
-v ./data:/data \
|
|
--restart unless-stopped \
|
|
muxui/pichost:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Default port: **6892**. Open `http://<host>:6892` and complete setup.
|
|
|
|
If you cloned the repo:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See `docker-compose.yml` in the repository.
|
|
|
|
## First-time setup
|
|
|
|
1. Open your instance URL (Docker default `http://<host>:6892`).
|
|
2. Complete `/setup` with admin username and password.
|
|
3. (Optional) Configure site URL, image URL, Referer rules — see [Environment variables](./configuration.md) and [Dual-domain separation](./domain-separation.md).
|
|
4. Upload from the home page; use the top nav for **Gallery**, **Storage** (admin), **Settings**, and **API**.
|
|
|
|
## Sign in
|
|
|
|
Management pages (upload, gallery, settings, etc.) require login. Enter username and password, **drag the slider to align with the gap**, then click **Sign in**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If registration is enabled, create an account from the register page. Legacy deployments may still use a secret key (see the on-screen hint).
|
|
|
|
## Forgot password
|
|
|
|
Requires `docker exec` (server access):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker exec pichost reset-password # admin only when there is exactly one
|
|
docker exec pichost reset-password <username> # admin or regular user
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A random password is printed. Change it after login.
|
|
|
|
Local dev: `npm run reset-password` or `npm run reset-password -- <username>`
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading to v1.2.0
|
|
|
|
If `data/` has legacy top-level folders next to `images` (e.g. `blog/`, `twikoo/`), read the [v1.2 migration guide](./migration.md) first.
|
|
|
|
Object-storage-only or files already under `data/images/` — pull the new image and restart.
