[DOCKER CONTAINER] Ubooquity

[NAS]

ta much

 

Been playing heavily with this docker and it is amazing how fast it is even for seriously large collections.

 

Nice work

Just tried to install, getting 502 Bad Gateway at https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/hurricane/ubooquity/. Getting "Pulling repository hurricane/ubooquity HTTP code: 502" when installing through Docker tab. Solution?

Hi Hurricane, Ubiquity was just updated to fix a bunch of stuff, can you update your docker please?

You can updated yourself, I was sure I had design it this way. Stop the container. Replace the jar file in the config directory with the new version and and ensure the permission are right.

[pinion]

YOU CAN UPDATE IT YOURSELF! LOL! I know you weren't meaning it that way but I couldn't help but read it like that. Cracking me up.

 

Anyway, you can ssh in and go to the config directory. Then do a

wget http://vaemendis.net/ubooquity/downloads/Ubooquity-1.7.0.zip

And then you can unzip it. I moved my old jar to jar.old and then

unzip Ubooquity-1.7.0.zip

 

The download died on me a couple times. I don't know if it's me or that guys server but it was slow.

Hello Pinion,

 

I just downloaded the new jar file with my windows machine, and then copied the new jar to my Apps/Ubooquity/config folder, it was super easy and only took a few minutes.

[ThatDude]

I had no idea that the jar file was in the config folder, that makes things easy. Perhaps I should learn to read the Docker install text :-)

Whilst you can update yourself we should strive not to. other wise we are missing out on a principle point of docker.

 

If the dev is MIA we can ask a live one to fork it

i've forked smdions repo, (don't want ownership of it cos a lot of it is stuff i don't understand tbh) but i've played around with the htpcmanager docker.

 

if i send you a pm can you check some bash scripting for me as i'm pretty new to it.

I'm having problems setting up the directory.  In the docker settungs I have set /mnt to /mnt/user/Books/ and then in Ubooquity admin set the shared directory to /mnt/user/Books/ but get:

 

"Preferences could not be modified.

Directory does not exist or is not readable: /mnt/user/Books"

 

Tried adding an Authorized User as well but just keep getting the message above.  What am I doing wrong?

When you tell the container that /mnt is pointing to /mnt/user/Books in unraid then the container will see the contents of /mnt/user/Books under /mnt. In other words, in ubooquity you should set the share location of your books to just /mnt because you've already told the container that /mnt is pointing to /mnt/user/Books and ubooquity will see all of your content under /mnt. Does that make sense?

 

If you wanted you could set /mnt to /mnt when creating the docker and then in ubooquity you would have to specify the full path. But the ubooquity container would also be able to see everything which I guess could be less secure. Especially if you expose ubooquity to the internets.

Worked perfectly!  Many thanks!

After updating Ubooquity to v1.7.5, if you decide to use Fbreader on an android device to access your Ubooquity book server, you must Enter URL manually eg= http://yourIP:yourPort/opds-books.

[Ayefly]

I installed the docker, and can access via browser.

 

Attempting to use Chunky comic reader on my ipad I get a connection error when I try to add a odps/calibre/Ubooquity server at 10.10.10.112:8086 .  Using that same address in the webpage section of chunky works.

 

Chunkys FAQ says to enable ODPS in Ubooquity's advanced settings page, but I don't see that option listed.

 

In my docker setting page 8085 is routed to 8086

[stuart]

Figured it out, updated to latest .jar file for Ubooquity.  Just copied it from the link that pops up when you load the Ubooquity admin page, and pasted the .jar in the appdata/ubooquity folder. new settings then appeared upon reboot.

I"m having an issue with the Raw section, books and comics work fine

 

i added a -v /media/raw:/raw  when I started the container

When i add /raw in the admin page it works, but i cant see anything except

../ 

raw

 

in that section

[hurricanehrndz]

This seems more like a question for the Dev's of ubooquity, I don't think this an issue with the docker per say

That doesn't seem like a valid host path for unRAID. Are you trying to start this from the command line instead of the docker page in the GUI?

[hurricanehrndz]

That's very true. I totally missed that.

[nate8199]

Sorry,  it's running on a mint box,  this is the only place I Googled that had any real good discussion on these containers, that's how I ended up here.  I've found alot of other useful docker info that has helped me on these forums.

 

Was just hoping someone else had an issue with the raw section and noticed something I've missed.  I'll try the main ubooquity page also.

[hurricanehrndz]

Ah.. Well that makes sense, please share your permissions on the folder and the ones you initiated the container with

[nate8199]

 

inside /media and outside  /media/media/Comics

inside /raw    and outside  /media/media/torrent

all have 755 permissions and are group 1000

 

when using ubooquity and in the raw section, if i click on the /raw  it just says  File not found

[hurricanehrndz]

I will boot vm and test out the raw functions and report back. To be honest I haven't used ubooquity's raw function what type of media Ia suppose to be supported

[nate8199]

i honestly thought it would show everything in the directory, but i could be wrong, i will try on another server i have the same container running and see what happens

 

 

found this in the clogs/Ubooquity.log

 

File not found: /config/\raw\

 

found this finally, doesn't look like it has been fixed yet
