  2. Execute the command: python cps.py (or nohup python cps.py - recommended if you want to exit the terminal window)
  3. Point your browser to http://localhost:8083 or http://localhost:8083/opds for the OPDS catalog
  4. Set Location of Calibre database to the path of the folder where your Calibre library (metadata.db) lives, push "submit" button optionally a google drive can be used to host the calibre library (-> Using Google Drive integration)
  5. Go to Login page

Default admin login: Username: admin Password: admin123

Issues with Ubuntu: Please note that running the above install command can fail on some versions of Ubuntu, saying "can't combine user with prefix". This is a known bug and can be remedied by using the command pip install --system --target vendor -r requirements.txt instead.

Requirements

Python 2.7+, python 3.x+

Optionally, to enable on-the-fly conversion from EPUB to MOBI when using the send-to-kindle feature:

Download Amazon's KindleGen tool for your platform and place the binary named as kindlegen in the vendor folder.

Docker images

Pre-built Docker images based on Alpine Linux are available in these Docker Hub repositories:

x64

  • technosoft2000 at technosoft2000/calibre-web. If you want the option to convert/download ebooks in multiple formats, use this image as it includes Calibre's ebook-convert binary. The "path to convertertool" should be set to /opt/calibre/ebook-convert.
  • linuxserver.io at linuxserver/calibre-web. Cannot convert between ebook formats.
