Support sharing of person-based photo collections from "Persons" section (see recognize#1281)

[codigo-iot]

Hi, and thanks for the great work on Memories.

I recently submitted a feature request in the Recognize repo (#1281) to propose a new functionality that would allow users to share all photos associated with a recognized person directly from the Persons section in Memories.

Since Memories provides the user interface where this action would be performed (extending the standard file/folder "Share" feature to person-based collections), I believe it would make sense to consider part of the implementation here as well.

🔧 What I’m suggesting:

Add a "Share" option for each person in the Persons view of Memories, enabling users to share the photos recognized for that individual, either via public link or with other Nextcloud users.

This would mirror the existing behavior available for files and folders, but for a logical collection of photos grouped by person.

---

📌 Use cases:

• Personal: Share all pictures of a family member with relatives in one click.
• Collaborative: Allow quick creation of albums by person.
• Enterprise: In a workplace scenario where surveillance photos are uploaded to Nextcloud, security personnel could share all sightings of a recognized person (e.g., a visitor or employee) for auditing or incident follow-up.

---

Again, much appreciation for your work — this feature would add great value for both personal and professional use cases.

Nevermind, I misinterpreted the issue.

This should be possible on the memories side by

• sharing all photos the user has access to associated with the person in question to the other user, which will give them access to the person as well, once Share photos of a person with other users nextcloud/recognize#948 is implemented
• simpler: just expose a public link to this user's person view of the person in question

Yes please! I'm desperately looking for that feature right now. Did you find a workaround? I can't even figure out how to add all photos tages "Alex" to an album to make it shareable

That's a possible solution, but I'm not sure it's the complete solution. The proposal is to focus on the same behavior as sharing (which can be a public link or shared with other users). Let's take the case of identifying people in a building via facial recognition, where we want to identify the person each time they enter the building, with the goal of sharing images of that person with a security supervisor. Would we need to create a username for the person who enters the building?

Esto debería ser posible en el lado de los recuerdos.

• compartir todas las fotos a las que el usuario tiene acceso asociadas con la persona en cuestión al otro usuario, lo que también le dará acceso a la persona, una vez que se implemente Compartir fotos de una persona con otros usuarios  nextcloud/recognize#948
• Más simple: simplemente exponga un enlace público a la vista personal de este usuario de la persona en cuestión.
