App or service to self host ebooks?
Does anyone know of a self hosting option for hosting ebooks? I keep hoping there is an open source library type app where I could add my ebooks and host them for myself and others.
You're viewing a single thread.
I use Kavita to host ebooks and manga for myself. It's still work in progress, so do expect changes, though I haven't had huge issues on the stable releases so far. Besides Tachiyomi for comics/manga there aren't any native reading apps yet, so you will have to use the webinterface for the time being.
Another option often mentioned is Calibre Web, though I haven't used that myself.
I'll throw in my vote for Kavita. Works great. I read a lot on my phone so I just saved the app shortcut to my home screen from Firefox.
I use kavita and kavitaEmail as well and haven't had issues. I like the email service so I can send a book to my kindle when I want to start it.
I honestly prefer Kavita even though I do not download comics or manga. Their reader is so nice, specially with the themes. 0 issues on my end except for indexing, which the dev promptly fixed after I reported the issue.
I use Moon+ Reader pro on my android, and on my iOS I simply make a "webapp" of the website.
Moon+ Reader doesn't sync though, does it? I thought there weren't any readers that supported OPDS-PS, just simple downloading.
No, you're right, it does not sync. Usually I do this on longer durations without internet, else I just use a webapp (on mobile) or the website on PC.
