cargo build --release
```

The binary will be available at `./target/release/immich-tools`.

## Configuration

To connect to your Immich server, you need to provide:

- `server_url`: The API endpoint of your Immich instance (usually ends with `/api`)
- `api_key`: Your Immich API key (can be generated in the Immich web interface)

These can be provided in several ways (in order of precedence):

1. **Command line arguments**:
   ```bash
   immich-tools --server-url https://photos.example.com/api --api-key your-api-key server version
   ```

2. **Environment variables** (prefixed with `IMMICH_TOOLS_`):
   ```bash
   IMMICH_TOOLS_SERVER_URL=https://photos.example.com/api IMMICH_TOOLS_API_KEY=your-api-key immich-tools server version
   ```

3. **Environment variables pointing to files** (suffixed with `_FILE`):
   ```bash
   IMMICH_TOOLS_SERVER_URL_FILE=~/immich-url.txt IMMICH_TOOLS_API_KEY_FILE=~/immich-api-key.txt immich-tools server version
   ```

4. **Configuration file** in the OS-specific location:
   - Linux: `~/.config/immichtools/config.toml`
   - macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/fr.enoent.Immich-Tools/config.toml`
   - Windows: `~\AppData\Roaming\enoent\Immich Tools\config\config.toml`

### Example Configuration File

```toml
server_url = "https://photos.example.com/api"
api_key_file = "/home/example/.config/immichtools/apikey"

[people.sync_date_of_births]
vcard = "/home/example/contacts.vcf"
```

## Immich API Compatibility

The bindings are generated automatically from the Immich OpenAPI specification. The current version is compatible with
Immich v1.119.1, with some limitations around file upload operations (Progenitor doesn't yet support
`multipart/form-data` content types, see [this issue](https://github.com/oxidecomputer/progenitor/issues/518)).
