# Calibre-Web
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The [AutopPirate](/recipies/autopirate/) recipe includes [Lazy Librarian](https://github.com/itsmegb/LazyLibrarian), a tool for tracking, finding, and downloading eBooks. However, after the eBooks are downloaded, Lazy Librarian is not much use for organising, tracking, and actually **reading** them.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Calibre-Web](https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web) could be described as "_[Plex](/recipies/plex/) (or [Emby](/recipies/emby/)) for eBooks_" - it's a web-based interface to manage your eBook library, screenshot below:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Of course, you probably already manage your eBooks using the excellent [Calibre](https://calibre-ebook.com/), but this is primarily a (_powerful_) desktop application. Calibre-Web is an alternative way to manage / view your existing Calibre database, meaning you can continue to use Calibre on your desktop if you wish.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As a long-time Kindle user, Calibre-Web brings (among [others](https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web)) the following features which appeal to me:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Filter and search by titles, authors, tags, **series** and language
|
||||||
|
* Create custom book collection (shelves)
|
||||||
|
Support for editing eBook metadata and deleting eBooks from Calibre library
|
||||||
|
* Support for converting eBooks from EPUB to Kindle format (mobi/azw)
|
||||||
|
* Send eBooks to Kindle devices with the click of a button
|
||||||
|
* Support for reading eBooks directly in the browser (.txt, .epub, .pdf, .cbr, .cbt, .cbz)
|
||||||
|
* Upload new books in PDF, epub, fb2 format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Ingredients
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. [Docker swarm cluster](/ha-docker-swarm/design/) with [persistent shared storage](/ha-docker-swarm/shared-storage-ceph.md)
|
||||||
|
2. [Traefik](/ha-docker-swarm/traefik) configured per design
|
||||||
|
3. DNS entry for the hostname you intend to use, pointed to your [keepalived](ha-docker-swarm/keepalived/) IP
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Preparation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Setup data locations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We'll need a directory to store some config data for Calibre-Web, container, so create /var/data/calibre-web, and ensure the directory is owned by the same use which owns your Calibre data (below)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
mkdir /var/data/calibre-web
|
||||||
|
chown calibre:calibre /var/data/calibre-web # for example
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Ensure that your Calibre library is accessible to the swarm (_i.e., exists on shared storage_), and that the same user who owns the config directory above, also owns the actual calibre library data (_including the ebooks managed by Calibre_).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Prepare environment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We'll use an [oauth-proxy](/reference/oauth_proxy/) to protect the UI from public access, so create calibre-web.env, and populate with the following variables:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
OAUTH2_PROXY_CLIENT_ID=
|
||||||
|
OAUTH2_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET=
|
||||||
|
OAUTH2_PROXY_COOKIE_SECRET=<make this a random string>
|
||||||
|
PUID=
|
||||||
|
PGID=
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Follow the [instructions](https://github.com/bitly/oauth2_proxy) to setup your oauth provider. You need to setup a unique key/secret for each instance of the proxy you want to run, since in each case the callback URL will differ.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Setup Docker Swarm
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Create a docker swarm config file in docker-compose syntax (v3), something like this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
!!! tip
|
||||||
|
I share (_with my [patreon patrons](https://www.patreon.com/funkypenguin)_) a private "_premix_" git repository, which includes necessary docker-compose and env files for all published recipes. This means that patrons can launch any recipe with just a ```git pull``` and a ```docker stack deploy``` 👍

|

|
|

|
!!! note
|
||||||
|
Setup unique static subnets for every stack you deploy. This avoids IP/gateway conflicts which can otherwise occur when you're creating/removing stacks a lot. See [my list](/reference/networks/) here.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Serving
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Launch Calibre-Web
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Launch the Wekan stack by running ```docker stack deploy calibre-web -c <path -to-docker-compose.yml>```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Log into your new instance at https://**YOUR-FQDN**. You'll be directed to the initial GUI configuraition. Set the first field (_Location of Calibre database_) to "_/books/_", and when complete, login using defaults username of "**admin**" with password "**admin123**".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Chef's Notes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Yes, Calibre does provide a server component. But it's not as fully-featured as Calibre-Web (_i.e., you can't use it to send ebooks directly to your Kindle_)
|
||||||
|
2. A future enhancement might be integrating this recipe with the filestore for [NextCloud](/recipies/nextcloud/), so that the desktop database (Calibre) can be kept synced with Calibre-Web.
