Bookshelf – Self-hosted eBook library that runs on object storage

If it is helpful to other people here is how I manage my ebook library with flatfiles and heterogeneous devices (Android, macOS, iOS, Kindle, etc)

I have my own eBook library hosted with copyparty. It is a single binary. Runs on plain files. And speaks OPDS for integration with KOreader (Kindle) or Readest (iOS/macOS). https://github.com/9001/copyparty#opds-feeds

It also speaks webdav so I can quickly sync everything via rclone to an SD card on devices like an Android tablet.

I really like the convenience of flat files and multiple protocols.

I've been using Readest (https://web.readest.com/) but I'll definitely be checking this out.

I'm a fan of audiobookshelf. Don't let the name fool you, it does a lot! I use it for podcasts, audio books, & ebooks. It's great!

For someone looking for a bit more than this, I recently got Bookorbit running and its quite powerful for being so young. https://bookorbit.app/

Does Calibre support S3 these days as a storage backend?

Now if only I had a good self hosted object store option
