TagSpaces Pro Web

TagSpaces Pro Web is a web application based on the PRO Edition, supporting most features available in the desktop version and running in a web browser. This version is designed for self-hosting and is typically used in home environments or small companies (e.g., on NAS systems). It can only manage files located on S3 object storage hosted on private MinIO servers or other S3-compatible services like AWS S3 or Wasabi.

TagSpaces as a Web Application

With the web interface of the Pro Web edition, you can easily access your digital notes, photos, music, videos, and other documents on computers, tablets, or mobile phones within your local network.

If your private network is accessible via a VPN, you can access your files from anywhere on the Internet.

    Easy to Deploy and Maintain

    The web app requires just a static web hosting, which can be provided by any modern web server running on a PC, Docker, or NAS (Network Access Storage, such as from Synology or QNAP).

    For hosting your files, you will need S3-compatible object storage, which can be in the cloud, such as on AWS, or a MinIO server running on your NAS or another server in your private network.

    Deploying the web app on a web server will make it accessible to everyone on your network. To restrict access, you can set up basic authentication in front of the folder hosting the app. Even without this authentication, users will still need credentials to access files in the object storage.

      Custom Configuration

      Distributing TagSpaces to multiple users within an organization may require a common software configuration. Here is an incomplete list of the supported options:
      • Custom location lists
      • Custom tag libraries containing specific tag groups and tags
      • Predefined user interface themes
      • Predefined default perspectives
      • Custom lists of map tile servers

      MinIO Object Storage

      MinIO allows you to expose a local file structure (secured by user accounts and secrets) via an S3 API over HTTPS. For example, you can use it to provide access to "buckets" (folders) of data on your file store, secured by access and secret keys, just like AWS S3. You can further interact with your "buckets" using common tools, as if they were hosted on S3.

      Unlike the default MinIO administration application, TagSpaces allows you to tag, preview, and edit files from buckets directly in the web browser without needing to download them.

      MinIO is an open-source project and can be used for free under the terms of the AGPLv3 software license.
