“We’ve just released a new tool to build a docker-compose.yml for Immich! You can find it at https://immich.app/docker-compose-builder.
The reason we built this is to try and simplify the process of installing Immich, especially when needing customizations beyond the default compose file that we include in the repository. Using features like hardware acceleration and external libraries, or customizing the installation in various other ways, has always required manual edits based on snippets that are scattered throughout the docs. Along with the separate .env file which has proven unfamiliar to many self-hosters, this has caused plenty of confusion and trouble. The new tool aims to codify these nuances in a way that’s easy to use, giving you a single file that’s ready to go.”
