Select the image and select Download or just double click it. The image that we’re looking for is the official Pi-hole image, linuxserver/calibre, this one of the many Docker images offered by the linuxserver folks. I have mine set up in homes/%MY USER%/ebooks.If you don’t have an ebook folder in your NAS create one where ever you want.Inside the calibre folder create a plugins and upload directory.

I always create the folder based on the name of the image/container I’m setting up, in this case calibre.Create a new folder in the docker folder for Calibre.Installing docker creates a docker folder at the root of your volume.Make sure to make note of your user ID and group ID for admin as we will need that later when setting up the container.If you don’t have SSH enabled follow this guide.I’ll guide you how to setup the Calibre docker image, if you want to get it setup on a server or machine running linux you can follow the same steps just ignore the Synology NAS specific steps.

I have used Calibre for a few years on my desktop computer with great results and once I got a NAS I wanted to switch it over there. It has been around for a while, has an e-book viewer, ability to share your library and a verbose plugin ecosystem. Image courteous of Susan Yin at Unsplash.Ĭalibre is a free ebook manager.
