Uploading Media Files

There are several options for uploading media files.

1. Local File Storage (Recommended for self-hosted)

Mount a host directory instead of using a Docker volume.

Example: /home/server_user/gramps_media/:/app/media

Upload your media files into /home/server_user/gramps_media/ on the host.

2. Amazon S3 Storage

Use the S3 Media Uploader Addon (https://www.grampsweb.org/install_setup/s3/).

Best for large-scale or remote file hosting.

3. Gramps Web Sync

The most convenient method to sync files and databases.
