a self hosted digital library for your books, comics and reading progress
BookLore is an open source digital library for people and teams with a serious book collection. It organises EPUB, PDF and comic files into libraries and smart shelves, fetches cover art and metadata, gives every reader their own account, shelves and reading progress, and serves a built in browser reader alongside an OPDS catalogue and Kobo and KOReader sync so the same library follows you onto a dedicated e-reader.
The cloudimg image assembles the whole stack for you: the application and its built in web console as one tuned Java service, a loopback bound database, and a reverse proxy configured for the large headers, streaming uploads and live progress websockets the app actually uses. A dedicated data volume holds your books, covers and auto import folder. Every instance generates its own database and administrator passwords at first boot and claims the administrator before the console is ever reachable, so no two deployments share a secret and no stranger can claim your library first. The complete corresponding source ships on the instance, and 24/7 cloudimg support is included.
