Importing calibre data into calibre server/docker

straylight · 12-30-2020, 12:23 PM

I have been using the portable version of calibre for many years on my pc and recently created a new calibre server on my synology through docker. I am not sure how to import my library/data (plugins) into the server version. Do i just paste the calibre portable directory into the /config folder on my nas and import through calibre?

Use CALIBRE_CONFIG_DIRECTORY env var to tell calibre where to look for its config. And make that config folder available somewhere on your NAS.
