Maintenance
Repair Nested Ebook Paths
Older Librarr builds could create /books/ebooks/ebooks/.... Preview this repair before moving cataloged files into the configured ebook root and updating Librarr’s paths.
Recommended order: merge matching duplicate books, preview this repair, run it, verify Library and OPDS, then rescan only if needed.
User Management
Create accounts, manage roles, and inspect login status.
Accounts
Create User
Create a local account directly without issuing an invite code.
Invite Codes
Share a code so someone can self-register with the role you choose. Single-use by default.
Bootstrap Information
If this install was bootstrapped from Docker environment variables, that only applies before local users exist.
After initialization, users are managed here.
Changing AUTH_USERNAME or AUTH_PASSWORD in Docker Compose does not rename or modify existing accounts.
OPDS Catalog
Connect an OPDS-compatible reader to browse and download your Librarr books.
Use your external Librarr URL plus /opds in reader apps.
Authentication: HTTP Basic Auth with your Librarr username and password.
Formats: EPUB and PDF are preferred; MOBI/AZW3 are offered as raw downloads.
Remote access: use HTTPS through your reverse proxy.
Integrations
Edit URLs and credentials without restarting the container. Saved values override the env vars in your compose file on next restart.
Anna's Archive
Your Anna's Archive account secret key (login key; also called a donator key in some tools) enables membership fast downloads via /dyn/api/fast_download.json. Without it, Librarr uses public LibGen mirrors. Fast downloads also require an active membership on that account.
