Show HN: Scenery – an open-source photo-gallery with extended search (scenery.cx)

9 points by qwertyforce ↗ HN
Hello HN! Sharing a pet project of mine. It started out as a dull photo-gallery then I tried to make it "smarter". In the process of development, I've learnt a lot about computer vision and programming in general.

Current features: Search by tags (supports logical expressions, https://scenery.cx/search_syntax) Semantic text search You can find images with similar tags, color palette or visuals/semantics Reverse image search Image anti-duplication mechanism Automatic image tagging and captioning IPFS support

Hi, Cool, Ambience libraries seem to be simple (in a good way) but handy. I wish it had a BSD/MIT license so that I could potentially use it in my projects.

Hi, thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately, ambience is AGPLv3 at the moment.

I respect your decision but AGPLv3 is very restrictive. Anyway it is up to you.

"The most common misconception about open-source projects is if a Github project has no license then it’s okay to use. If a repository has no license, then all rights are reserved and it is not open-source or free. You cannot modify or redistribute this code without explicit permission from the copyright holder."

I don't see any LICENSE file in the repo. So, if you want more people to engage with your code, please add a LICENSE file to your repo.

Indeed, I totally forgot about the LICENSE files, thanks for the tip.
