# 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, Movies or Tv, 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._ ## 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 ## Currently Supported Formats * epub * mobi * pdf # Installation - curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th3r00t/pyShelf/refs/heads/0.8.0--dev-zipapp/install.sh | sudo bash # Coming Soon - [ ] Manual Collections $id{67975ab0-5cf3-41f3-9198-d4284d30729b} - [ ] Books Removal $id{5eee7312-f4de-4cf0-855e-36cc056a6bf1} - [ ] Access Restrictions $id{98254c2c-e5a5-47bc-9369-e01dc8d2b2dc} - [ ] Metadata Manipulation $id{b149f6f8-300f-47a7-97cb-9ef365585147} - [ ] UiUx Improvements $id{21546c49-f3c4-495b-ad9b-d045226b11a3} - [ ] Expanded book information view $id{bdfdc654-e18d-48ef-8dc1-26aa77c596be} - [ ] Improved Cover Image System $id{d7764dad-6926-44dd-9f3e-f03ee687b143} - [ ] OPDS Support $id{ca717447-4f7c-4eef-b430-1f8c649b15fb} ## Development * [`pre-commit`](https://pre-commit.com/) _Before developing, run `pre-commit install` See the [documentation](https://pre-commit.com/) for more information._ * ['sem-ver'](https://semver.org) _Before advancing version numbers be sure to set PROJECT_NUMBER in doxygen.conf accordingly._ | 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.
