Kubernetes deployment of calibre-web

This is a Kubernetes deployment of calibre-web application which uses linuxserver/calibre-web docker image.

How to

Note This deployment assumes the Kubernetes cluster runs the NGINX Ingress Controller as ingress controller. If you use another ingress controller, you will have to adapt ingress.yml accordingly.

git clone https://github.com/devtud/calibre-kubernetes

Edit ingress.yml and replace your domain name on this line:

  - host: <your-domain>

Open deployment.yml and adapt the two values on the following lines according to your needs (the user id and group id which own the files on the host machine - do not set it as root!).

            - name: PUID
              value: "1001"
            - name: PGID
              value: "1001"

Apply the Kubernetes resources:

kubectl apply -f ns.yml
kubectl apply -f pv_books.yml
kubectl apply -f pv_config.yml
kubectl apply -f pvc_books.yml
kubectl apply -f pvc_config.yml
kubectl apply -f deployment.yml
kubectl apply -f service.yml
kubectl apply -f ingress.yml

Important Even though you can access the deployed calibre-web app at your address, you won't be able to use it, because neither the calibre-web app nor the docker image provide a Calibre database. You have to get a Calibre database first and upload it to /var/data/calibre/books/metadata.db (note that this is the path on your host machine where the persistent volume pv_books.yml is pointing to). One way of doing this is to install a fresh Calibre on your computer and copy the metadata.db file from your computer to the mentioned path.

After you open the web interface, in the config screen put the following values:

  • /books for the db path
  • /usr/bin/ebook-convert for the converter path
  • /usr/bin/unrar for the unrar path
