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.
