## Configuration
-### Nginx
-Included is a default nginx config file {pyshelf_nginx.conf}. This file should be sufficient to get you up and running. You are required to change the location alias's to reflect your pyshelf install folder leaving everything after /frontend intact.
-
-Further resources for nginx setup may be found @ [This nginx, django, & uwsgi, guide](https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/Django_and_nginx.html)
-
-### uwsgi
-Inside uwsgi.ini you should make changes to reflect your install directory, and the port you wish uwsgi to listen on. Alternativly you can make the requisite changes to listen on a socket instead. This change would also require a change to the pyshelf_nginx.conf file as well.
-
-### pyShelf
-User configuration is contained within config.json in the project root. You must set book_path to the location of your books, and change the database connection details to match your environment.
-
-## Misc
-Django has been implemented to power the frontend experience, and web based database maintenance. A properly configured web server is required for hosting the frontend, and a PostgreSQL server for the database, configuration of these servers is outside of the scope of this readme.
+All configuration is now handled by the installer.
Running via the Django test server might be possible, albeit not recomended.
## In Progress
-* Searching, & further organizational tools.
+* Organizational tools.
* Docker image for those who need it.
* Improved cover image storage, and acquisition.
