I, Librarian

[girish]

@ultraviolet looks nice! Does this have LDAP? It seems there is some support for it - https://github.com/mkucej/i-librarian-free/pull/38

[ultraviolet]

@girish I think it does I would need to dig into it a bit more.

[jdaviescoates]

@ultraviolet are you still maintaining this package of yours?

Doesn't look like it from https://github.com/mkucej/i-librarian-free but perhaps that isn't the latest repo?

Edit: doh! that's the I, Librarian repo, not your Cloudron package!

I'd love to have it in the app store! (although doesn't look like it's that active )

[qwinter]

@jdaviescoates I would love to have it too, more so because the current alternative we do have, calibre, doesn't seem to work stable.

yes, the calibre package is a bit too unloved imho

[timconsidine]

@ultraviolet looks nice.

Is your repo ready for sharing ? No worries if not.

Seems like it could be deployed in a LAMP app w/o a repo ?
But I haven't tried that.

@jdaviescoates Calibre is a wonderful tool, and it has loads of funcitonality, however, I am a bit wary of it.

The way it retrieves data from proprietary websites, e.g. Amazon for book covers, and other functionality makes me wonder whether it could well be turned against users to spy on what people have in their libraries.

[jdaviescoates]

@LoudLemur I really wouldn't worry about that tbh

Calibre is a wonderful project.

Imho grabbing data from the tech giants is a least clawing back some of the value we all largely created for them which is rightly ours in the first place anyway

Are you still testing "I, Librarian" @ultraviolet? Would love to give it a go. Can you give me access to your repo?

I have the same question and the same plus, would be great to use I, Librarian in cloudron

It looks like the free/self-hosted version has limitations: https://i-librarian.net/compare

or is that only for the hosted free version?

@humptydumpty Those limitation do apply to the self-hosted version (as only the Free Software version can be self hosted)
