Following the instructions on the calibre-web git.. step 8 it says to copy the json file to calibre-web/cps but this path only exist in the container. I cant make it persistent because it is only created when i start the docker container...So what do i do?

Please try my latest release v1.1.11 where you've the possibility to map calibre-web/app and get access to the cps directory at calibre-web/app/cps

At the README.md you'll find also the details - here an example how the volume mapping looks like:

docker create --name=calibre-web --restart=always \
-v /volume1/books/calibre:/books \
-v /volume1/docker/apps/calibre-web/app:/calibre-web/app \
-v /volume1/docker/apps/calibre-web/config:/calibre-web/config \
-v /volume1/docker/apps/calibre-web/kindlegen:/calibre-web/kindlegen \
-e PGID=65539 -e PUID=1029 \
-p 8083:8083 \

@Technosoft2000 thank you. I was able to setup google drive. By any chance do you know what goes in the Calibre Base URL field if I use calibre via docker container (docker-rdp-calibre). I open it via guacamole using rdp so I'm not sure what to enter

@saitoh183 I'm sorry I've no idea what's there the correct setting.
Nevertheless you shouldn't use two different solutions at the same time on the same Calibre library, because it could damage your Calibre database file.

I figured it out. The thing is that using the Google drive setup in Calibre-web allows calibreweb to auto sync your metadata.db to google drive when it gets modified. So it shouldn't get corrupted. But i get your point.
