Yea, it was just an experiment.

Not a cardinal sin, but you should know why you chose to do so, and make up your own mind whether it makes sense to use Virtual Libraries instead.

I've been shouted at several times for wanting to do so LOL

Just go with multiple CLI incantations.

I will, I just thought there's no point setting it all up just to have the new version that will do it all in one hit released a day or two later LOL

Also, what distro do you use

I use Arch on one desktop, Ubuntu on the other, and Kali on the laptop.

(I use ArchLinux), and does it use systemd as its init system?
Here is a systemd unit file which starts up a calibre library via drop-in config files.
Code:
[eschwartz@arch ~]$ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/calibre-server@.service
[Unit]
Description=Main calibre server
After=network.target
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/%h/.config/calibre/servers/%i.conf
ExecStart=/usr/bin/calibre-server \
--port "${port}" \
--with-library "${path}" \
--restriction "${restriction}" \
--user "${user}" \
--pass "${pass}"
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
In your calibre configuration directory, create a folder called "servers", add ${library_name}.conf files, and keep the various parameters in the conf file.
Code:
[eschwartz@arch ~]$ cat ~/.config/calibre/servers/amazon.conf
port=""
path="/home/eschwartz/Calibre Libraries/Amazon"
restriction=""
user=""
pass=""
Then start a library with
Code:
systemctl --user start calibre-server@libraryname
or enable it every time you login with
Code:
systemctl --user enable calibre-server@libraryname

That'll come in handy, thanks ;^>

Indeed, looking forward to it.
