If you manage your ebooks with Calibre, Bookhoard can automatically import your curated metadata, including series information, tags, and custom covers. + +## What is Calibre? + +Calibre is a free and open-source ebook management software. It allows you to: + +- **Organize your library** - Create collections, add tags, manage series +- **Edit metadata** - Update titles, authors, descriptions, covers +- **Fetch metadata online** - Download from Google Books, Amazon, Goodreads +- **Convert formats** - Convert between EPUB, MOBI, PDF, and more +- **Sync to devices** - Send books to Kindle, Kobo, and other e-readers + +## How Bookhoard Integrates with Calibre + +### Automatic Metadata Import + +When you scan a Calibre library in Bookhoard, it automatically detects and imports metadata from Calibre's `metadata.opf` files. This includes: + +- ✅ **Titles and authors** - Your curated edits +- ✅ **Series information** - Series name and position +- ✅ **Tags and genres** - Your custom organization +- ✅ **Descriptions** - Book summaries +- ✅ **Publishers and dates** - Publication information +- ✅ **Identifiers** - ISBN, ASIN, and other IDs +- ✅ **Contributors** - Illustrators, editors, translators +- ✅ **Custom covers** - Your chosen cover images + +### Sidecar-First Approach + +Bookhoard uses a **sidecar-first** approach for Calibre libraries: + +1. **If `metadata.opf` exists** → Use Calibre's curated metadata +2. **If no sidecar** → Use embedded metadata from the book file +3. **Fallback** → Use folder structure and filename + +This ensures your Calibre curation work is respected and imported accurately. + +## Setting Up Your Calibre Library in Bookhoard + +### Step 1: Organize Your Calibre Library + +Ensure your Calibre library has `metadata.opf` files in each book's folder. Calibre creates these automatically when you add books to your library. + +Typical Calibre folder structure: +``` +Calibre Library/ +├── Author Name/ +│ ├── Book Title (Series #1)/ +│ │ ├── Book Title.epub +│ │ ├── metadata.opf ← Bookhoard reads this +│ │ └── cover.jpg +│ └── Book Title 2/ +│ ├── Book Title 2.epub +│ └── metadata.opf ← Bookhoard reads this +``` + +### Step 2: Add Library in Bookhoard + +1. Navigate to **Admin** → **Libraries** +2. Click **Add Library** +3. Configure: + - **Name**: "My Calibre Library" + - **Type**: Ebook (or Audiobook/Comic) + - **Folder**: Path to your Calibre library + - **Scan on save**: ✅ Checked +4. Click **Save** + +Bookhoard will automatically scan the library and import all books with their Calibre metadata. + +### Step 3: Verify Import + +1. Navigate to **Library** view +2. Browse your imported books +3. Check that: + - Titles and authors are correct + - Series information appears (if applicable) + - Tags are imported + - Covers display correctly + - Descriptions are present + +## Supported Metadata + +### Dublin Core Fields + +Bookhoard imports standard Dublin Core metadata from Calibre: + +| Field | Source | Notes | +|-------|--------|-------| +| Title | `dc:title` | Book title | +| Author | `dc:creator` | Primary author | +| Tags | `dc:subject` | **Keywords/tags** (multiple) | +| Description | `dc:description` | Book summary | +| Publisher | `dc:publisher` | Publisher name | +| Date | `dc:date` | Publication date | +| Language | `dc:language` | ISO language code | +| ISBN | `dc:identifier` | ISBN (if present) | +| ASIN | `dc:identifier` | Amazon ID (if present) | +| Contributors | `dc:contributor` | Additional contributors | + +### Calibre-Specific Fields + +Bookhoard also imports Calibre's custom metadata: + +| Field | Source | Notes | +|-------|--------|-------| +| Series | `calibre:series` | Series name | +| Series Number | `calibre:series_index` | Position in series | +| Timestamp | `dc:date` | When added to Calibre | + +### Not Imported + +The following Calibre metadata is **not** imported (by design): + +- ❌ **Ratings** - Calibre ratings are personal; Bookhoard has per-user ratings +- ❌ **Sort fields** - Bookhoard has its own sorting logic +- ❌ **Custom columns** - User-defined columns (future enhancement) +- ❌ **Last read** - Reading progress is tracked per-user in Bookhoard + +## Supported File Types + +Bookhoard imports Calibre metadata for **all file types**: + +- 📚 **Ebooks**: EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF, TXT, etc. +- 🎧 **Audiobooks**: MP3, M4B, M4A, etc. +- 📰 **Comics**: CBZ, CBR, CB7, CBT, etc. +- 📄 **Documents**: PDF, DOCX, etc. + +As long as a `metadata.opf` file exists in the folder, Bookhoard will import the metadata. + +## Workflow Examples + +### Example 1: Fresh Calibre Library + +**Scenario**: You have a Calibre library with 500 ebooks, all organized with series, tags, and custom covers. + +**Steps**: +1. Add the Calibre library folder in Bookhoard +2. Enable "Scan on save" +3. Bookhoard imports all 500 books with: + - Correct titles and authors + - Series information (e.g., "Harry Potter #2") + - Your custom tags (e.g., "Fantasy", "Favorites", "To Read") + - Your chosen cover images + - Descriptions and publisher info + +**Result**: Your entire Calibre library is instantly available in Bookhoard with all your curation work preserved. + +### Example 2: Mixed Library (Calibre + Non-Calibre) + +**Scenario**: Your library has some books from Calibre (with `metadata.opf`) and some downloaded from elsewhere (no sidecar). + +**Steps**: +1. Add the library folder in Bookhoard +2. Bookhoard scans all files: + - **Calibre books**: Import from `metadata.opf` + - **Non-Calibre books**: Use embedded metadata or filename + +**Result**: Seamless import of both Calibre and non-Calibre books, with appropriate metadata sources for each. + +### Example 3: Updating Calibre Metadata + +**Scenario**: You edit metadata in Calibre (fix author name, add series, change cover). + +**Steps**: +1. Edit metadata in Calibre (it updates `metadata.opf`) +2. In Bookhoard, trigger a rescan: + - Navigate to **Admin** → **Libraries** + - Click **Rescan** on your library + - Or use the **Scanner API** to force rescan +3. Bookhoard detects updated `metadata.opf` and refreshes metadata + +**Result**: Bookhoard reflects your Calibre changes automatically. + +## Troubleshooting + +### Metadata Not Importing + +**Problem**: Bookhoard doesn't import Calibre metadata. + +**Solutions**: +1. **Check file structure**: Ensure `metadata.opf` is in the same folder as the book file +2. **Verify library type**: Ensure library type matches content (ebook vs. audiobook) +3. **Force rescan**: Use the "Force Rescan" option to re-import all metadata +4. **Check logs**: Review Bookhoard logs for parsing errors + +### Incorrect Metadata + +**Problem**: Imported metadata is wrong or incomplete. + +**Solutions**: +1. **Fix in Calibre**: Edit metadata in Calibre, then rescan in Bookhoard +2. **Verify sidecar content**: Open `metadata.opf` in a text editor to check content +3. **Check date formats**: Ensure dates are ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD) +4. **Re-scan**: Force rescan to re-import from updated sidecar + +### Missing Series Information + +**Problem**: Books in a series don't show series info. + +**Solutions**: +1. **Check Calibre**: Verify series is set in Calibre +2. **Check sidecar**: Ensure `calibre:series` and `calibre:series_index` are in `metadata.opf` +3. **Re-scan**: Force rescan to update series info + +### Performance Issues + +**Problem**: Scanning takes a long time with Calibre library. + +**Solutions**: +1. **Large libraries**: Initial scan may take time; subsequent scans are faster +2. **Network storage**: Scanning over network is slower; use local storage if possible +3. **Watch mode**: Enable watch mode for real-time updates instead of full rescans + +## Best Practices + +### 1. Keep Calibre as Primary Source + +**Do**: +- ✅ Edit metadata in Calibre +- ✅ Rescan in Bookhoard to sync changes +- ✅ Use Calibre for library management + +**Don't**: +- ❌ Edit `metadata.opf` files manually +- ❌ Modify metadata in Bookhoard if you plan to resync from Calibre +- ❌ Keep conflicting metadata sources + +### 2. Organize with Tags and Collections + +- Use **tags in Calibre** for genres, moods, status (To Read, Read, etc.) +- Create **collections in Bookhoard** for automatic organization +- Leverage both systems for different purposes + +### 3. Regular Syncing + +- Set up **watch mode** in Bookhoard for automatic updates +- Run **full rescan** after bulk edits in Calibre +- Keep metadata consistent between Calibre and Bookhoard + +### 4. Backup Your Library + +- Back up your Calibre library regularly +- Include both book files and `metadata.opf` files +- Test restore process periodically + +## Advanced Usage + +### Custom Calibre Columns (Future) + +Bookhoard may support Calibre custom columns in a future release. This would allow you to import: +- Read status +- Favorite flags +- Custom metadata fields +- User-defined categories + +Stay tuned for updates! + +### OPDS Integration + +You can access your Bookhoard library (including Calibre-imported books) via OPDS from Calibre-aware devices: +- Kobo e-readers +- KOReader +- Phone/tablet apps (KYBook, Chunky, etc.) + +See the [Kobo Setup Guide](devices/kobo-setup.md) or [KOReader Setup Guide](devices/koreader-setup.md) for details. + +## FAQ + +**Q: Will Bookhoard modify my Calibre library?** + +A: No. Bookhoard only **reads** Calibre metadata. It never modifies your Calibre library files or `metadata.opf` files. + +**Q: Can I use both Calibre and Bookhoard?** + +A: Yes! They're complementary: +- Use **Calibre** for library management, conversion, and device syncing +- Use **Bookhoard** for web access, sync across devices, and sharing + +**Q: What if I don't use Calibre?** + +A: Bookhoard works perfectly without Calibre. It will use embedded metadata from your book files, folder structure, and filenames. + +**Q: Does Bookhoard import Calibre ratings?** + +A: No. Ratings are **per-user** in Bookhoard. Calibre ratings reflect the owner's opinion, which may not match other users' opinions. + +**Q: Can I edit Calibre metadata in Bookhoard?** + +A: You can edit metadata in Bookhoard, but it won't sync back to Calibre. For permanent changes, edit in Calibre and rescan in Bookhoard. + +**Q: Does this work with Calibre Web?** + +A: Calibre Web uses the same `metadata.opf` files, so yes - Bookhoard can scan a Calibre Web library folder. + +**Q: What about Calibre's "author sort" and "title sort"?** + +A: Bookhoard has its own sorting logic and doesn't import Calibre sort fields. This allows for consistent sorting across all books. + +## Resources + +- [Calibre Website](https://calibre-ebook.com/) +- [Calibre User Manual](https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/) +- [Calibre Forum](https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=166) +- [Bookhoard GitHub](https://github.com/yourusername/bookhoard) + +## Need Help? + +- **Documentation**: See [User Guide](user-guide.md) for general Bookhoard usage +- **Troubleshooting**: See [Operations Guide](../operations/operations.md) for common issues +- **Developer Docs**: See [Developer Portal](../developer/development.md) for technical details +- **Issues**: Report bugs or request features on [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/yourusername/bookhoard/issues) diff --git a/docs/user/user-guide.md b/docs/user/user-guide.md index 43d96f0..d3a5c6b 100644 --- a/docs/user/user-guide.md +++ b/docs/user/user-guide.md @@ -27,6 +27,17 @@ Learn how to configure your e-reader devices to sync with Bookhoard: - Conflict resolution - Best practices +## 📚 Calibre Integration + +- **[Calibre Integration Guide](calibre-integration.md)** - Integrating with Calibre libraries + - What is Calibre? + - Automatic metadata import + - Setting up your Calibre library + - Supported metadata and file types + - Workflow examples + - Troubleshooting + - Best practices + ## 🎨 Frontend Guide **[Frontend Guide](frontend-guide.md)** - Learn how to use the Bookhoard web interface
