+# Immich Role
+
+This Ansible role deploys [Immich](https://immich.app/) - a high performance self-hosted photo and video management solution - using Podman with docker-compose files.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Podman installed on the target system (handled by the `podman` role dependency)
+- Podman compose support (`podman compose` command available)
+- Sufficient disk space for photos/videos at the upload location
+
+## Role Variables
+
+See `defaults/main.yml` for all available variables and their default values.
+
+### Key Configuration Requirements
+
+#### Required Passwords
+
+Both passwords must be set in your inventory (min 12 characters):
+- `immich_postgres_password` - PostgreSQL database password
+- `immich_valkey_password` - Valkey/Redis password
+
+#### Valkey ACL Configuration
+
+**Important:** Immich requires a dedicated Valkey ACL user with specific permissions. This role provides the ACL configuration, but you must register it with the Valkey role.
+
+**Required Setup in Inventory:**
+
+Add the Immich user to your `valkey_acl_users` list in your inventory or host_vars:
+
+```yaml
+# inventory/host_vars/yourserver.yml or group_vars/all.yml
+valkey_acl_users:
+  - username: immich
+    password: "{{ immich_valkey_password }}"
+    keypattern: "immich_bull* immich_channel*"
+    commands: "&* -@dangerous +@read +@write +@pubsub +select +auth +ping +info +eval +evalsha"
+```
+
+**ACL Breakdown:**
+- `keypattern: "immich_bull* immich_channel*"` - Restricts access to BullMQ keys used by Immich
+- `&*` - Allow all pub/sub channels (required for BullMQ job queues)
+- `-@dangerous` - Deny dangerous commands (FLUSHDB, FLUSHALL, KEYS, etc.)
+- `+@read +@write` - Allow read/write command groups
+- `+@pubsub` - Allow pub/sub commands (SUBSCRIBE, PUBLISH, etc.)
+- `+select` - Allow SELECT command (database switching)
+- `+auth +ping +info` - Connection management commands
+- `+eval +evalsha` - Lua scripting (required by BullMQ for atomic operations)
+
+**Based on:** [Immich GitHub Discussion #19727](https://github.com/immich-app/immich/discussions/19727#discussioncomment-13668749)
+
+**Security Benefits:**
+- Immich cannot access keys from other services
+- Cannot execute admin commands (FLUSHDB, CONFIG, etc.)
+- Cannot view all keys (KEYS command denied)
+- Defense-in-depth with ACL + key patterns + database numbers
+
+#### External Network Configuration
+
+Immich requires a dedicated external network to be defined in your inventory. Add this to your `host_vars` or `group_vars`:
+
+```yaml
+podman_external_networks:
+  - name: immich
+    subnet: 172.20.0.0/16
+    gateway: 172.20.0.1
+```
+
+**How it works:**
+1. Define the Immich network in `podman_external_networks` list in your inventory
+2. The `podman` role (a dependency) creates the external network before Immich deployment
+3. The Immich docker-compose file references this external network
+4. The network persists across container restarts and compose stack rebuilds
+
+## Dependencies
+
+This role depends on:
+- `podman` - Container runtime
+- `postgres` - PostgreSQL database
+- `valkey` - Redis-compatible cache (formerly Redis)
+
+**Note:** The Valkey role must be configured with the Immich ACL user (see Valkey Configuration section above) before running this role.
+
+## Example Playbook
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: servers
+  become: true
+  roles:
+    - role: podman
+    - role: immich
+      vars:
+        immich_postgres_password: "your-secure-postgres-password"
+        immich_valkey_password: "your-secure-valkey-password"
+        immich_upload_location: /mnt/storage/immich/upload
+        immich_timezone: America/New_York
+```
+
+**Complete Example with Valkey ACL:**
+
+In `inventory/host_vars/yourserver.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+# Podman external networks
+podman_external_networks:
+  - name: immich
+    subnet: 172.20.0.0/16
+    gateway: 172.20.0.1
+
+# Valkey admin password
+valkey_admin_password: "your-valkey-admin-password"
+
+# Valkey ACL users - register all service users here
+valkey_acl_users:
+  - username: immich
+    password: "{{ immich_valkey_password }}"
+    keypattern: "immich_bull* immich_channel*"
+    commands: "&* -@dangerous +@read +@write +@pubsub +select +auth +ping +info +eval +evalsha"
+  # Add other services here as needed
+
+# Immich passwords
+immich_postgres_password: "your-secure-postgres-password"
+immich_valkey_password: "your-secure-valkey-password"
+```
+
+In your playbook:
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: servers
+  become: true
+  roles:
+    - role: valkey    # Must run first to create ACL users
+    - role: postgres
+    - role: podman
+    - role: immich
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+The role deploys Immich using Podman containers that connect to shared system services:
+
+**Immich Containers:**
+1. **immich-server** - Main application server (exposed on configured port)
+2. **immich-machine-learning** - ML service for facial recognition and object detection
+
+**Shared System Services:**
+3. **PostgreSQL** - Database with vector extensions (from `postgres` role)
+4. **Valkey** - Redis-compatible cache (from `valkey` role)
+
+### Container Networking
+
+Both Immich containers run on a **dedicated external Podman network** with its own CIDR block. The network is created by the `podman` role as an external network, referenced in the compose file:
+
+```yaml
+networks:
+  immich:
+    external: true
+    name: immich
+```
+
+The actual network configuration (subnet: `172.20.0.0/16`, gateway: `172.20.0.1`) is handled by the podman role based on the `immich_network_*` variables.
+
+This provides:
+- **Network isolation**: Separate subnet (defined in inventory, e.g., `172.20.0.0/16`) from other containers
+- **Network persistence**: Network survives compose stack rebuilds and container recreation
+- **Named bridge**: Explicit interface naming for the network
+- **Container-to-container communication**: The server reaches the ML container via service name (`immich-machine-learning:3003`) using Docker/Podman internal DNS
+- **Container-to-host communication**: Both containers can reach PostgreSQL and Valkey on the host via `host.containers.internal:{{ podman_subnet_gateway }}`
+
+**Key Points:**
+- The network must be defined in your inventory via `podman_external_networks`
+- The network is created by the `podman` role before Immich deployment (via role dependency)
+- The Immich network has its own gateway (e.g., `172.20.0.1` as defined in inventory)
+- `extra_hosts` maps `host.containers.internal` to the **Podman default bridge gateway** (e.g., `10.88.0.1`), not the Immich network gateway
+- This allows containers to route to the host machine for PostgreSQL/Valkey access
+
+**Checking the network:**
+```bash
+# List all Podman networks
+podman network ls
+
+# Inspect the Immich network
+podman network inspect immich
+```
+
+### Data Isolation
+
+The role implements proper data isolation for both database backends:
+
+- **PostgreSQL**: Immich gets its own database (`immich`) and dedicated user (`immich`) with restricted privileges (NOSUPERUSER, NOCREATEDB, NOCREATEROLE)
+- **Valkey**: Immich uses a dedicated ACL user (`immich`) with:
+  - Dedicated password (independent from `valkey_admin_password`)
+  - Key pattern restriction (`immich_bull*` and `immich_channel*` only)
+  - Command restrictions (no admin/dangerous operations like FLUSHDB, CONFIG)
+  - Database number isolation (uses DB 0 by default, configurable)
+  - Pub/sub channel access for BullMQ job queues
+
+**Security Benefits:**
+- Each service has unique credentials
+- Compromised service cannot access other services' data
+- Cannot accidentally delete all data (FLUSHDB/FLUSHALL denied)
+- Cannot view keys from other services (KEYS command denied)
+- Defense-in-depth: ACL + key patterns + command restrictions + database numbers
+
+The compose file is deployed to `{{ podman_projects_dir }}/immich/docker-compose.yml` and managed via a systemd service.
+
+## Post-Installation
+
+After deployment:
+
+1. Access Immich at `http://<host-ip>:2283`
+2. Create an admin account on first login
+3. Configure mobile/desktop apps to point to your server
+
+## Management
+
+The role creates a systemd service for managing the compose stack:
+
+```bash
+# Check status
+systemctl status immich
+
+# Stop Immich
+systemctl stop immich
+
+# Start Immich
+systemctl start immich
+
+# Restart Immich
+systemctl restart immich
+
+# View logs for all containers
+cd /opt/podman/immich && podman compose logs -f
+
+# View logs for specific service
+cd /opt/podman/immich && podman compose logs -f immich-server
+```
+
+### Manual Management
+
+You can also manage containers directly with podman compose:
+
+```bash
+cd /opt/podman/immich
+
+# Start services
+podman compose up -d
+
+# Stop services
+podman compose down
+
+# Pull latest images
+podman compose pull
+
+# Recreate containers
+podman compose up -d --force-recreate
+```
+
+## Updating Immich
+
+To update to a newer version:
+
+1. Update the `immich_version` variable in your playbook or inventory
+2. Re-run the Ansible playbook
+3. The systemd service will restart with the new version
+
+Or manually:
+
+```bash
+cd /opt/podman/immich
+podman compose pull
+systemctl restart immich
+```
+
+## Storage
+
+- **Upload location**: Stores all photos, videos, and thumbnails
+- **Database location**: PostgreSQL data (not suitable for network shares)
+- **Model cache**: ML models for facial recognition
+
+Ensure adequate disk space and regular backups of these directories.
+
+## Files Deployed
+
+- `{{ podman_projects_dir }}/immich/docker-compose.yml` - Compose definition
+- `/etc/systemd/system/immich.service` - Systemd service unit
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- **Set strong passwords** for both `immich_postgres_password` and `immich_valkey_password` (min 12 chars)
+- **Use Ansible Vault** to encrypt passwords in production:
+  ```bash
+  ansible-vault encrypt_string 'your-password' --name 'immich_postgres_password'
+  ansible-vault encrypt_string 'your-password' --name 'immich_valkey_password'
+  ```
+- **Configure Valkey ACL** properly (see Valkey Configuration section) - do not use `+@all`
+- Consider using a reverse proxy (nginx/traefik) for HTTPS
+- Restrict access via firewall rules if needed
+- Keep Immich updated by changing `immich_version` and redeploying
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Check service status
+```bash
+systemctl status immich
+```
+
+### View compose file
+```bash
+cat /opt/podman/immich/docker-compose.yml
+```
+
+### Check container status
+```bash
+cd /opt/podman/immich
+podman compose ps
+```
+
+### View logs
+```bash
+cd /opt/podman/immich
+podman compose logs
+```
+
+### Valkey ACL Issues
+
+**Error: "NOPERM No permissions to access a channel"**
+- The Valkey ACL is missing channel permissions
+- Ensure `&*` or `+allchannels` is in the ACL commands
+- Verify ACL is properly loaded: `valkey-cli ACL LIST`
+
+**Error: "NOAUTH Authentication required"**
+- Check `immich_valkey_password` is set correctly
+- Verify the password matches in both inventory ACL config and immich vars
+
+**Error: "WRONGPASS invalid username-password pair"**
+- Ensure the Immich user is registered in `valkey_acl_users`
+- Check the Valkey ACL file was deployed: `cat /etc/valkey/users.acl`
+- Restart Valkey to reload ACL: `systemctl restart valkey`
+
+**Verify Valkey ACL Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Connect as admin
+valkey-cli
+AUTH default <valkey_admin_password>
+
+# List all ACL users
+ACL LIST
+
+# Check specific user
+ACL GETUSER immich
+
+# Monitor commands (useful for debugging permissions)
+MONITOR
+```
+
+**Test Immich user credentials:**
+```bash
+valkey-cli
+AUTH immich <immich_valkey_password>
+SELECT 0
+PING
+# Should return PONG
+
+# Try a restricted command (should fail)
+FLUSHDB
+# Should return: (error) NOPERM

+# Nginx Role
+
+This Ansible role installs and configures Nginx as a reverse proxy for web applications.
+
+## Features
+
+- Installs Nginx
+- Configurable worker processes and connections
+- Gzip compression support
+- SSL/TLS configuration
+- Modular vhost configuration via `/etc/nginx/conf.d/`
+- Zero-downtime reloads
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Systemd-based Linux distribution
+- Root/sudo access
+
+## Role Variables
+
+See `defaults/main.yml` for all available variables and their default values.
+
+### Key Configuration
+
+The role provides sensible defaults for worker processes, connection limits, upload sizes, compression, and SSL/TLS settings. Override as needed in your inventory.
+
+## Dependencies
+
+None.
+
+## Example Playbook
+
+### Basic Installation
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: servers
+  become: true
+  roles:
+    - role: nginx
+```
+
+### Custom Configuration
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: servers
+  become: true
+  roles:
+    - role: nginx
+      vars:
+        nginx_worker_processes: 4
+        nginx_worker_connections: 2048
+        nginx_client_max_body_size: 500M
+```
+
+## Service Management
+
+The role creates handlers for managing nginx:
+
+```yaml
+notify: Reload nginx   # Graceful reload (zero downtime)
+notify: Restart nginx  # Full restart
+```
+
+## Vhost Configuration Pattern
+
+This role is designed to work with service-specific vhost configurations. Each service role should:
+
+1. Deploy its vhost config to `/etc/nginx/conf.d/<service>.conf`
+2. Notify the nginx reload handler
+3. Use a variable to enable/disable nginx integration
+
+### Example Service Integration
+
+In your service role (e.g., `immich`):
+
+**defaults/main.yml:**
+```yaml
+immich_nginx_enabled: false
+immich_nginx_hostname: immich.example.com
+```
+
+**tasks/main.yml:**
+```yaml
+- name: Deploy nginx vhost for service
+  ansible.builtin.template:
+    src: nginx-vhost.conf.j2
+    dest: /etc/nginx/conf.d/myservice.conf
+    validate: nginx -t
+  when: myservice_nginx_enabled
+  notify: Reload nginx
+
+- name: Remove nginx vhost when disabled
+  ansible.builtin.file:
+    path: /etc/nginx/conf.d/myservice.conf
+    state: absent
+  when: not myservice_nginx_enabled
+  notify: Reload nginx
+```
+
+**templates/nginx-vhost.conf.j2:**
+```nginx
+server {
+    listen 80;
+    server_name {{ myservice_nginx_hostname }};
+
+    location / {
+        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:{{ myservice_port }};
+        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
+        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**handlers/main.yml:**
+```yaml
+- name: Reload nginx
+  ansible.builtin.systemd:
+    name: nginx
+    state: reloaded
+```
+
+## Independent Deployments
+
+This pattern allows for independent service deployments:
+
+1. **Deploy service A** → Only touches `/etc/nginx/conf.d/serviceA.conf` → Reload nginx
+2. **Deploy service B** → Only touches `/etc/nginx/conf.d/serviceB.conf` → Reload nginx
+3. **No downtime** for other services during deployment
+
+## Log Management
+
+Nginx logs are written to:
+- `/var/log/nginx/access.log` - Access logs
+- `/var/log/nginx/error.log` - Error logs
+
+These are also captured by systemd journal:
+```bash
+# View nginx logs
+journalctl -u nginx -f
+
+# View traditional log files
+tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log
+tail -f /var/log/nginx/error.log
+```
+
+## Configuration Validation
+
+The role automatically validates nginx configuration before applying changes using `nginx -t`.
+
+Manual validation:
+```bash
+nginx -t                    # Test configuration
+nginx -t -c /path/to/conf  # Test specific config file
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Check nginx status
+```bash
+systemctl status nginx
+```
+
+### Test configuration
+```bash
+nginx -t
+```
+
+### Reload configuration
+```bash
+systemctl reload nginx
+```
+
+### View error logs
+```bash
+journalctl -u nginx -n 100
+# or
+tail -f /var/log/nginx/error.log
+```
+
+### List loaded vhost configs
+```bash
+ls -la /etc/nginx/conf.d/
+```
+
+## SSL/TLS Support
+
+For SSL support, you can:
+
+1. **Manual certificates:** Place certs in `/etc/ssl/` and reference in vhost configs
+2. **Let's Encrypt:** Use certbot or similar tools (can be added to playbook)
+3. **Self-signed:** Generate with `openssl` for testing
+
+The base nginx.conf includes SSL protocol configuration that applies to all vhosts.
+
+## Performance Tuning
+
+Adjust these variables based on your workload:
+
+- `nginx_worker_processes`: Set to number of CPU cores
+- `nginx_worker_connections`: Increase for high traffic (check `ulimit -n`)
+- `nginx_client_max_body_size`: Increase for large file uploads

-```yaml
-# Base directory for docker-compose projects
-podman_projects_dir: /opt/podman
+### Key Configuration
 
-# Unqualified search registries (for short image names)

-  - ghcr.io
+#### Unqualified Search Registries

-# Podman bridge interface name (if using custom network)
-podman_subnet_iface: podman1
-```
 
-### Unqualified Search Registries
+#### External Networks
 
-When you use short image names (without registry prefix), Podman searches these registries in order:
-
-```bash
-# Short name
-podman pull redis:alpine
-
-# Resolves to
-docker.io/library/redis:alpine
-```
-
-**Default search order:**
-1. `docker.io` - Docker Hub
-2. `quay.io` - Red Hat Quay
-3. `ghcr.io` - GitHub Container Registry
-
-You can customize this list via the `podman_unqualified_search_registries` variable.
-
-### Podman Bridge Network
-
-By default, Podman dynamically assigns network subnets to bridge interfaces. You can document your network configuration using these variables:
-
-**Default behavior (empty `podman_subnet`):**
-- Podman manages networks automatically
-- No manual configuration needed
-
-**Explicit network documentation:**
-
-```yaml
-podman_subnet: "10.89.0.0/24"
-podman_subnet_gateway: "10.89.0.1"
-podman_subnet_iface: podman1
-```
-
-Use this to:
-- Document your infrastructure topology
-- Allow services to bind to the bridge gateway (e.g., PostgreSQL, Valkey)
-- Reference in other roles that need bridge network information
-- Maintain consistent network configuration across deployments
-
-**Finding your Podman network:**
-
-```bash
-# List Podman networks
-podman network ls
-
-# Show bridge interfaces
-ip addr show | grep podman
-
-# Get specific interface IP
-ip -4 addr show podman1
-```
+The role can create external Podman networks for services that need dedicated network isolation. Define the `podman_external_networks` list in your inventory. Networks persist across container restarts and compose stack rebuilds. See `defaults/main.yml` for configuration details.

+#### Container Access
+
+For containers to access Valkey, set `valkey_bind` to include the Podman gateway:
 ```yaml
-# Bind address (localhost only for security)
-valkey_bind: 127.0.0.1
-
-# Port
-valkey_port: 6379
-
-# Authentication (REQUIRED - must be set explicitly)
-# valkey_admin_password: ""  # Intentionally undefined - role will fail if not set
-
-# ACL users (services register their users here)

-# Example:
-# valkey_acl_users:
-#   - username: immich
-#     password: "secretpassword"
-#     keypattern: "immich_bull* immich_channel*"  # Space-separated patterns (template converts to ~pattern1 ~pattern2)
-#     commands: "&* -@dangerous +@read +@write +@pubsub +select +auth +ping +info +eval +evalsha"
-
-# Max memory (0 = unlimited)
-valkey_maxmemory: 256mb
