the sapphic urge to build a thing that syncs albums across immich instances...

(correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this exists yet, from a few web searches)

Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!

I don't imagine this to be too hard tbh

So I've been working on that tool a little bit on the side every day since, and I'm happy to announce that the first image was just synced from a shared album on one immich instance to another album on my own instance ^^

It's far from finished, but nice to see that this works already, and it was indeed not hard at all.
Btw, my goal for this is to have a minimal proof-of-concept tool that works well for syncing a single album – not to implement a whole lot of functionality or friendly UI.

Using this for importing shared links would also be cool tho. Maybe I could turn it into a library or something.

Got around to polishing it a bit, adding a readme and pushing it to codeberg, so there is now codeberg.org/fugi/immich-album-sync :)

This is very much unfinished – I put a roadmap in the readme as an overview of what works (spoilers: only unidirectional sync of simple media, so far) and what doesn't / is untested. Feel free to look, try out, give feedback, send patches, ...
