Calibre is a e-book management app for desktop use. In short, Calibre-web is just a nice frontend for Calibre. Documentation is not very good so I decided to ask more experienced self hosters about a few things. I decided to use calibre-web - as a docker container and to be honest, it confuses me a lot. Linuxserver.io does provide images for both Calibre and Calibre-web, which i haven't tried. by lordEarlGray Few questions about calibre-web Hello, I'm setting up my ebook server. Yes, a desktop app, not a web app.Ĭompounding the fact, Readarr, an automatic e-book downloader, specified the needs for Calibre Content Server, which is only availabe in Calibre, the desktop app. Calibre-web is actually just a nicer front-end that you can expose to web browser, while Calibre is a desktop app to manage your e-book collection. Which is weird, since Calibre-web is just a pretty looking Calibre right? GitHub - janeczku/calibre-web: :books: Web app for browsing, reading and downloading eBooks stored in a Calibre database master 2 branches 20 tags Go to file Code Ozzie Isaacs Adapt cover size to kobo sync requested sze 7818c4a 4 days ago 3,893 commits. Turns out you need to generate one on the Calibre container. Looking at documentation, it recommends /book path as the location of the database.īut it founds nothing. After logging in, it prompts path to Calibre database. Install went okay, since the fact that to start the container it took almost full two minutes that made me frantically looking at my compose file looking for mistakes. When comparing the two, i see that Calibre-web has a much modern interface, compared to Calibre website which honestly looks like a antique website. Folks over on Linuxserver Awesome List have recommendation to manage your e-book collection, that is, Calibre and Calibre-web. And following my self-hosting excitement, naturally i'm interested in managing my (e-)books. First of all, shoutout to you guys on Linuxserver for maintaining such a high-quality list of Docker images.īooks always have a special place in my heart.
