Family server
Howdy howdy,
I'm trying to tell if Calibre Web Server is the right tool for me. I want to have a platform that I can easily access/share my audio and e-books with myself/family. Sortof do this through Amazon, but there are a lot of free (legal) books out there that you can't access through Amazon/Audible. Here are is what I would like done. I have a domain name, web hosting, and cloud storage.
1a) A place where the spouse/kids can go and get the library feel of selecting a book, much like the GUI in the full version of CWS, but web based. Be able to assign users.
1b) Would like to make some content NSFW and none child friendly... so would like to have a admin account and user account, but easily be able to limit what the user can see. I don't mind if the gardening book or woodworking book is opened by all, but some of the romance novels might be a bit steamy.
1c) We all have different devices. I tend to keep everything epub.
2) Web based, always on and I and my partner travel a lot and it would be nice to be able to access our library via internet, I don't want to leave a laptop/desktop running, I do have a domain name, web hosting, and cloud storage.
3) My web hosting site does not have unlimited storage, ebooks are small, but the audio is a space monster. Is it possible for CWS to securely access/link to a remote folder/site/space. Both web hosting and remote space have really good UL/DL speeds.
So.. web based, easy to navigate, user groups, remote storage from hosted website.
