@markpitblado@mstdn.ca Nice! I had set up Calibre as a web service, but this looks like a **much** better bet

@markpitblado@mstdn.ca Neat. Does Booklore pickup metadata from the book or do you have to do a lot of manual editing? I use something similar in calibre-web-automated. It doesn't sync my books automatically, but comes with an OPDS endpoint that I can use to download specific books. I have some larger comicbooks in my library that would eat up the storage on my reader quickly if I just synced everything. 😅 I've been thinking about switching away from anything Calibre based, because it's a bit heavy-weight. The Docker image still pulls down the entire Calibre app, including GUI elements and whatnot. It's huuuuuuge. But then my library is currently nice and ordered, just the way Calibre wants it. I'm a bit afraid that I'd have to do too much juggling around to press it into anything else.

@markpitblado@mstdn.ca Double CGNAT, so only local stuff possible, and not as my own server. I went through your https://www.markpitblado.me/blog/a-self-hosted-music-setup-that-rivals-spotify/ which was nice. I wish I could do it, but again DCGNAT.

@markpitblado@mstdn.ca I’ve been using calibre but this looks really nice. Can you edit the book content in it? I think I’ll check it out either way!
