Create a .env file in the root directory and copy the contents of .env.example into it. Replace the placeholder value with the path to the folder you want to monitor (I linked it to my downloads folder). Note that the container only has read access to this folder.
Ensure that you have docker installed. Run:
docker compose up --build
Any changes you make to the files in $HOST_FOLDER will be logged in the console.
You can also search for image files that you added to the host folder by visiting http://localhost:8000/docs and entering a search query in the json body.
