photoprism2immich

photoprism2immich is a tool to migrate media libraries and albums from Photoprism to Immich. The tools scan the original photoprism files folders and upload all the images and videos on Immich using API calls. It also query Photoprism API to retrieve albums photo and create the albums on Immich.

It has a built-in feature for skipping already uploaded files and albums in case something goes wrong during upload, avoiding duplicates.

The migrate-album and migrate-favorites features draws heavy inspiration from ppim-migrator by user v411e
