PDF Viewer Recommendation

Recommended Posts

I have dozens of pdf's I need access to (manuals for equipment I own). I've downloaded them all in case the external sites go down, and have a folder with them. While functional, I'd ideally like them to be available on my network, without needing a device to mount a share.

I'd like to spin up a web server, so they're available over http. Basically a web server serving static content. Ideally, I could drop in a new pdf, and the index page would update automatically, etc. 

 

Is there a plugin/app that does this already? I haven't found anything pdf-specific on the community store, but perhaps there's something similar that would work for my use case. Any advice would be appreciated.

I use the "raw files" category in Ubooquity for this. My PDFs are organized as follows:

/media/pdfs/manuals

/media/pdfs/datasheets

/media/pdfs/... 

 

Then I point the "/files" path in the Ubooquity docker container to "/media/pdfs"
