linuxserver/calibre-mod

Calibre-mod is not a standalone container but an additional docker layer for the LinuxServer.io Calibre-Web container which adds the binaries and dependencies necessary to enable ebook conversion in Calibre-web on x86-64 utilising Calibre.

Supported Architectures

Our images support multiple architectures such as x86-64, arm64 and armhf. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.

Simply pulling linuxserver/calibre-web should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

Architecture	Tag
x86-64	amd64-latest

Usage

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a Calibre-Web container utilising this mod.

docker

docker create \
  --name=calibre-web \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -e DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/calibre-mod:latest \
  -p 8083:8083 \
  -v <path to data>:/config \
  -v <path to calibre library>:/books \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/calibre-web

docker-compose

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

---
version: "2"
services:
  calibre-mod:
    image: linuxserver/calibre-web
    container_name: calibre-web
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
      - DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/calibre-mod:latest
    volumes:
      - <path to data>:/config
      - <path to calibre library>:/books
    ports:
      - 8083:8083
    restart: unless-stopped

Parameters

Container images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

Parameter	Function
`-p 8083`	WebUI
`-e PUID=1000`	for UserID - see below for explanation
`-e PGID=1000`	for GroupID - see below for explanation
`-e TZ=Europe/London`	Specify a timezone to use EG Europe/London.
`-e DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/calibre-mod:latest`	Adds the ability to convert books on x86-64
`-v /config`	Where calibre-web stores the internal database and config.
`-v /books`	Where your calibre database is locate.

Application Setup

In the Calibre-Web admin page (Basic Configuration:External Binaries) set the path to converter tool to /usr/bin/ebook-convert

Building locally

If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:

git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-calibre-mod.git
cd docker-calibre-mod
docker build \
  --no-cache \
  --pull \
  -t linuxserver/calibre-mod:latest .

Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with -f Dockerfile.aarch64.
