Calibre-Web and Calibre-Web-Automated

Calibre-Web and Calibre-Web-Automated serve an OPDS 1 catalog of your Calibre library.

Add the catalog

Field Value
Catalog URL https://<server>/opds (or http://<server>:8083/opds on a home network)
Username and password your Calibre-Web login

Calibre-Web's OPDS feed must be reachable with that login. If you put the server behind Cloudflare Access or a similar gateway, add its headers to the catalog (see Views and Features).

What you get

  • The start page lists Calibre-Web's sections: recently added, authors, series, shelves, languages and so on.
  • Books show their series and number in it, such as "❖ Dune Chronicles #2", read from the SERIES: line that Calibre-Web puts in the description, and their language in the book details.
  • Long shelves are paged: the next part of the feed is fetched as you go, to the last book.

Tips

  • Use server filenames (in the catalog's Edit dialog) keeps the file name that Calibre-Web gives a download, instead of naming it "Author - Title".
  • Tick Sync catalog in the same dialog to include the catalog in Sync all catalogs (see Views and Features).
