Installation

Installation via pip (recommended)

  1. Install calibre web via pip with the command pip install calibreweb (Depending on your OS and or distro the command could also be pip3).
  2. Optional features can also be installed via pip, please refer to this page for details
  3. Calibre-Web can be started afterwards by typing cps or python3 -m cps

Manual installation

  1. Install dependencies by running pip3 install --target vendor -r requirements.txt (python3.x). Alternativly set up a python virtual environment.
  2. Execute the command: python3 cps.py (or nohup python3 cps.py - recommended if you want to exit the terminal window)

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.

Quick start

Point your browser to http://localhost:8083 or http://localhost:8083/opds for the OPDS catalog 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 Go to Login page

Default admin login:

Username: admin
Password: admin123

Requirements

python 3.5+

Optionally, to enable on-the-fly conversion from one ebook format to another when using the send-to-kindle feature, or during editing of ebooks metadata:

Download and install the Calibre desktop program for your platform and enter the folder including program name (normally /opt/calibre/ebook-convert, or C:\Program Files\calibre\ebook-convert.exe) in the field "calibre's converter tool" on the setup page.

Download Kepubify tool for your platform and place the binary starting with kepubify in Linux: \opt\kepubify Windows: C:\Program Files\kepubify.

Docker Images

A pre-built Docker image is available in these Docker Hub repository (maintained by the LinuxServer team):

LinuxServer - x64, armhf, aarch64

  • Docker Hub - https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/calibre-web

  • Github - https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-calibre-web

  • Github - (Optional Calibre layer) - https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-calibre-web/tree/calibre

    This image has the option to pull in an extra docker manifest layer to include the Calibre ebook-convert binary. Just include the environmental variable DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/calibre-web:calibre in your docker run/docker compose file. (x64 only)

    If you do not need this functionality then this can be omitted, keeping the image as lightweight as possible.

    Both the Calibre-Web and Calibre-Mod images are rebuilt automatically on new releases of Calibre-Web and Calibre respectively, and on updates to any included base image packages on a weekly basis if required.

    • The "path to convertertool" should be set to /usr/bin/ebook-convert
    • The "path to unrar" should be set to /usr/bin/unrar
