Since progress is being logged server-side, it'd be awesome to be able to pull that list of in-progress issues/books. Or to be able to put a progress indicator on the issue itself.

hey there,

i'm not working with comic rack or something like that but a lot of files have a comicinfo.xml or something like this with info in it that i just don't like because it screws up the display of the comics in a folder if half of your files have these infos and the other half doesnt.

therefore i'd like a server-wide option to ignore these files and always show the filename as the name of comic.

Would someone mind to share his Fail2Ban configuration (filter.d + jail.local entry)

kind regard

Richard

I'd like to request support for AZW and AZW3 files.

I purchase all my ebooks from Amazon to read on my Kindle. When I download them, they come in an AZW3 format. To me this is great because compared to Mobi, it is more advanced by supporting more styles, fonts and layout. Unfortunately those filetypes aren't picked up by Ubooquity.

This should be super simple to add. They're so similar to MOBI files that I was able to take one of my AZW3 files, rename it to .mobi, and Ubooquity was able to display it, along with the Cover picture, Book title, and Author. On some of my files I was unable to see a description when this was done, though that might be because those files don't have a description included.

I would really appreciate the addition of these two filetypes.

How about adding "Notifications" option that would allow the user to setup/enter SMTP settings to notify an email recipient/s of anything new added automatically. Perhaps pulling the data or book names from the Latest Additions data?

In other words, anything new added since the last scan would be listed in an email and sent to a recipient list. The recipient would receive an email that would perhaps say something like this:

Message from Jason's Ubooquity Server. The Following Books Were Recently Added:

The Amazing Spider-Man #1

Thor #019

Sandman #023

This would be an awesome feature to help keep users up-to-date.

When I go to “Add Folder” and navigate to my external (HDD) volume it’s blank, no folders show up to share.  Running Big Sur, but this started happening before Big Sur release.

Hi !

Sometimes my comics exist in 2 formats : CBR or CBZ plus a PDF.

In that case, I would prefer to hide the PDF file to avoid the comic to be represented twice in my library.

I make it possibleit by coding this Javascript and adding it to the file named "themeScript.js" in a theme.

I hope this code to be self underestandable (commented :-) :

var last_book_name = ""; // Used by the de-duplicator
[...]
// START of the de-duplicator (excepted line "last_book_name...")
var book_file_format = src.slice(src.lastIndexOf(".")+1, src.lastIndexOf("?")); // CBZ, CBR and PDF or of the book : EPUB, MOBI, AZW, PDF and DJVU
var book_name = src.slice(src.lastIndexOf("/")+1,src.lastIndexOf("."));
if(book_name == last_book_name) { // 2 books have the same name (but not the same format...)
    if(book_file_format == "pdf") { // PDF format is not welcome if a CBR or CBZ file exist for the same comic
        thing.parents('.cellcontainer').hide(); // hide the duplicate book if it is in pdf
        console.log('duplicate book file hidden : ' + decodeURI(book_name) + '.pdf');
    }
}
last_book_name = book_name // memorize the book name
// END of the de-duplicator

The fact is I added my code on a particular theme already moded and itself based on the Plex theme. But It may be adapted to any other theme with some effort.

You can just download the complete moded theme here : it is the Plex theme with 2 mods : the reading indicator (by lostndessence) + the deduplicator by me

Enjoy !

My comic files (with duplicates...) : 

My library presented by Ubooquity with the moded theme (without duplicates) :

Could we get Books & Magazines as 2 separate and distinct sections. I like to see my 'proper' books distinct from the newstand style Magazines as I don't think they look great together. thanks

Have you ever thought about allowing concurrent db connections?

"LOCK_FILE=NO" 

Jaggery JS is a good library to allow reading H2 db's.

This would solve a lot of problems as we developers could then get arcs / series straight out of the database as long as it was captured by the metadata being present.

I know that it is possible to corrupt the db, but would only be an issue if our code allowed writes. But we only should be using reads.
