Siddharth Kumar Sah e5086ada6e feat: extract auto-orient utility and expand test coverage
Extract EXIF auto-orientation logic into a shared auto-orient module
used by both single-tool and batch routes. This ensures camera photos
display correctly after processing regardless of entry point.

Also expands e2e and integration tests significantly.

# Getting started
## Run with Docker
The fastest way to get Stirling Image running:
```bash
docker run -d \
--name stirling-image \
-p 1349:1349 \
-v stirling-data:/data \
siddharth123sk/stirling-image:latest
```
Open `http://localhost:1349` in your browser. Log in with `admin` / `admin`.
## Run with Docker Compose
Create a `docker-compose.yml`:
```yaml
services:
stirling-image:
image: siddharth123sk/stirling-image:latest
container_name: stirling-image
ports:
- "1349:1349"
volumes:
- stirling-data:/data
- stirling-workspace:/tmp/workspace
environment:
- AUTH_ENABLED=true
- DEFAULT_USERNAME=admin
- DEFAULT_PASSWORD=admin
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
stirling-data:
stirling-workspace:
```
```bash
docker compose up -d
```
See [Configuration](./configuration) for the full list of environment variables.
## Build from source
Requirements: Node.js 22+, pnpm 9+, Python 3.10+
```bash
git clone https://github.com/siddharthksah/Stirling-Image.git
cd Stirling-Image
pnpm install
```
Start the dev server:
```bash
pnpm dev
```
This starts both the API server and the React frontend. The app opens at `http://localhost:5173` by default during development.
## What you can do
Once logged in, the sidebar lists every available tool. Pick one, upload an image, adjust the settings, and download the result.
A few things to try first:
- **Resize** an image to specific dimensions or a percentage
- **Remove a background** using the AI-powered background removal tool
- **Compress** a photo to reduce file size before uploading it somewhere
- **Convert** between formats (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF)
- **Batch process** a folder of images through any tool
Every tool in the UI is also available through the [REST API](../api/rest), so you can script your workflows or integrate Stirling Image into other systems.
