![]() The problem is, that the main Calibre’s file – the metadata.db – will be updated on the host’s filesystem when you’ll edit a book from the browser using Calibre Web, but this change will NOT trigger local Nextcloud instance to push this change to its clients when it’ll become back online as it’s running just like a server – it’s not client part. This is issue relates to this current setup with the Nextcloud as storage, as it’s running on my own server and sometimes can be offline which can cause data un-sync on desktops. Pitfalls – merging the metadata.db with Nextcloud Out from the box Calibre Web has two themes – the light one, default: NGINX + Let’s Encrypt set up already described in the Bitwarden: an organization’s password manager self-hosted version installation on an AWS EC2 post.Ĭheck the library’s directory under Nextcloud which will be used by our Calibre Web:ĮxecStart=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose -f calibre-compose.yml upĮxecStop=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose -f calibre-compose.yml down and will use WebDAV from our phone to connect to the Nextcloud using Moon+ Reader.will mount a directory from the Nextcloud with Calibre’s library.run a Calibre Web instance in Docker – a web interface for a library.So, now I have my library itself is stored in a Nextcloud (see the Nextcloud: running in Docker Compose on Debian with Let’s Encrypt SSL post), and I’ll use the Moon+ Reader application on my Android devices as it can synchronize read position via WebDAV.Īlso, you can use Google Drive as a storage backend for Calibre Web, read the docs. The idea is to move away from storing books in Google Books and using its e-book reader on mobile and via a browser but still to be able to access my library from anywhere and to have have a book’s reading position synchronization ability, as it is in the Google Books mobile and browser readers. ![]() You will see the following screenshot.I’m using Calibre for my e-books library management for many years, but until today always used its desktop version.Ī couple of days ago I found the Calibre Web project – the same library, working with the same database, but accessible via a browser. ![]() Refer to the screenshot below, select the menu item " Library Books " > " Switch/create library ". In the "Apps" folder, create a folder " Calibre-demo".In the Dropbox, create an " Apps" folder.If you want to follow my demo closely, create the folders as follows. You need to create a folder in the Dropbox which will be used for storing the Calibre Library (e.g ePub files). On your Windows-based PC or Mac, download and install the Calibre (free software).Īfter installation, create a library by following the following steps. Dropbox is required when you install Calibre. On your PC or Mac, download and install Dropbox. On your android mobile device, install Dropbox.Ĭ. Reference: CC Dropbox broken connection *WORKAROUND*ī. How to search the Calibre and retrieve a book?" For detailed instructions, refer to " Step 5. The workaround is: use a gmail account to sign up for the Dropbox. Calibre Companion (CC) can no longer connect to Dropbox with a email account. ![]() ***Important: You must use a gmail account to sign up for the Dropbox.Ģ019-03 Due to a change in Dropbox authentication method.
