Zoph 1.5 and 25 years of Zoph

Today it was 25 years ago that Zoph v0.1 was created. Great day for a new release!. Zoph v1.6 is now available for download, in both php source format as well as Docker images.

25 years ago today, Jason Geiger finished the first version of Zoph. 25 years later, Zoph is still alive and kicking, making it one of the oldest PHP projects that is still actively maintained!

This release of Zoph adds something I'm particulary proud of and have wanted to add to Zoph for a long time: AI support to help you categorise your photos. It is still in beta, but my own tests have shown some promising results. The whole process will likely to require some more finetuning, but it looks like something that could be helpful for easier organising your photos. As always, this is completely optional and 100% local, nothing is sent to Google, OpenAI or other cloud-based providers.

It will require setting up a separate Zoph AI server, because contrary to Zoph, which is written in PHP, Zoph AI is written in Python. In order to run Zoph AI, you will need to run a Docker server. It is possible to run Zoph AI without it, but it is not recommended nor supported. Everything is documented in the documentation. Furthermore, this release contains some maintenance (mainly the upgrade of PHPUnit, which is used to automatically test Zoph) and some bugsfixes.

Please report any issues you have via Gitlab issues, I will do my best to resolve them as soon as possible.

The full changelog can be found in the changelog. You can download Zoph from the Gitlab site.

Zoph Docker images are available from Docker Hub and Gitlab.
