Overview

WACS creates a adult web site environment with many best-of-breed features including model catalogs, attribute-based searches, latest additions highlighting, photographer catalogs and automatic downloads. It can be used either to store a personal collection or to build a commercial website. It includes a full user environment, collection management toolset, programming API and a customizable sample website template. The API is available in both perl and php5/7. It is fundamentally different from other image management systems in that it handles photosets and video clips as single entities rather than individual images. WACS runs on a Linux/Unix server and provides all you need to store, preuse and catalogue a personal collection of adult material or to run a commercial adult (aka porn) web server. It's a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl/PHP) application, although it also works with other databases and platforms (a Windows version is under consideration). It also includes the ability to automatically monitor and download sets by favourite models from subscription web sites. It consists of over 50,000 lines of perl and uses a choice of industry standard databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL or Oracle as the back end.

THERE IS NO ADULT CONTENT HERE! but there is on our demo site!
WACS is a tool for building adult web sites - either for your personal use to index and store a collection or as the toolkit to build a commercial site.

Wacs-PHP 1.0.1 is NOW OUT! Supports the new PHP8 syntax
The partner release of Wacs-PHP 1.0.1 is now out. With Fedora 35 having moved to PHP version 8 with it's major syntax changes, this release has quite a lot of internal changes to make it work. The API interface is largely unchanged however. You do as before need the Perl version of Wacs for collection management; Wacs-PHP is for the website side only.

SURPRISE! Wacs 1.0.1 is NOW OUT! wacs-php 1.0.1 will follow shortly
Two years on from the major 1.0.0 release, we bring you Wacs 1.0.1. This release mostly tidies up and fixes bugs but it does include a much improved and configurable thumbnailing system for videos, lots of fixes and improvements for PostgreSQL (which is now our default internal testing DB) and to the collection administration tools. Also updated for Fedora 35 and Ubuntu 20.04 (focal). Wacs-PHP release 1.0.1 will follow soon as will our build for Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi.

Changes to database support in Wacs 1.0.1, Raspberry Pi Support
In WACS 1.0.1 we're having a tidy up of support for old versions of the databases and we're separating out MySQL and MariaDB as they have begun to diverge from each other. The minimum supported versions will now be MySQL 8.0, MariaDB 10.2, Oracle 11g and PostgreSQL 12. Sorry if this causes anyone pain -- we're not actively using new features so the older versions should work "for a while" but our testing is all done with what the main distros we support ship with and they've moved up to these releases. We are also looking to support the Raspberry Pi running Ubuntu 21.04 Hirsute Hippo with the WACS 1.0.1 release. Paired with a suitable large capacity MicroSD card or an external USB hard disc this will make the perfect Porn Appliance!

New features coming in Wacs 1.0.1: configurable media settings, full asset handling
Development work continues apace on the next release of WACS. We are really working on smoothing the media management workflow with configurable thumbnailing preferences, automatic collection of official icons and set descriptions. We're also adding more icons and tags to the standard set. Check out the Subversion versions for early access to these new features.
