# pyShelf 0.8.0
Terminal based ebook server. Open source & Lightweight.
Having used Calibre for hosting my eBook collection in the past, I found myself frustrated having to install X on my server, or manage my library externally, Thus I have decided to spin up my own.
 ### You dont need an X server to host a website, or your Movie & Tv collection, so why should you need one to host ebooks? _Other solutions require you to have access to an X server to at the very least generate your book database, pyShelf doesnt. We aim to provide a fully featured ebook server with minimal requirements, and no reliance on X whatsoever._ Follow or influence development @ ## 0.8.0 Patch Notes. ## Features * Recursive Scanning * Fuzzy Search with optional specifiers - tag:fiction - author:Clancy - title:"The Hunt for Red October" - The Expanse * Download System * Automated Collections based on folder structure * Expanded book information view | Branch | Support | Feature set | | --- | --- | --- | | Master | Bugs get priority | Most stable branch, may be behind in the core feature set | | Development| Please report all bugs | Most active branch, this branch is a rolling release, containing the latest features.
