podman, postgres, valkey, and nginx are shared services deployed once per host. Declaring them in meta/main.yml re-ran them on every service deploy, adding significant time to targeted runs. Playbooks now list shared services first (tagged 'infra') and every role entry carries a group tag plus its own name, so '--tags <role>' deploys just that role. Roles still fail fast when a shared service is missing (password asserts, postgresql tasks). Prerequisites are documented in role READMEs. CLAUDE.md updated to reflect the new convention.

# Immich Role
|
|
|
|
This Ansible role deploys [Immich](https://immich.app/) - a high performance self-hosted photo and video management solution - using Podman with k8s files.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
The `podman`, `postgres`, `valkey`, and `nginx` roles must have been applied to the host first (they are shared services, intentionally not declared in `meta/main.yml` to keep immich deploys fast). Order them before `immich` in the playbook for fresh installs.
|
|
|
|
## Role Variables
|
|
|
|
See `defaults/main.yml` for all available variables and their default values.
|
|
|
|
### 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
|
|
|
|
## External Libraries
|
|
|
|
Mount host paths read-only into the server container via `immich_external_libraries`,
|
|
then add the in-container `mount_path` in the Immich UI
|
|
(Administration → External Libraries). The `{{ ansible_user }}` running the rootless
|
|
pod must have read access on the host path.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Valkey ACL Issues
|
|
|
|
**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
|
|
```
