The Librum-Server includes the API, database, and other fundamental infrastructure required for the "backend" of all Librum client applications and the website.
The server is written in C# using ASP.NET Core. The codebase can be developed, built, run, and deployed cross-platform on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Librum-Server can easily be self-hosted. This way all your data and books remain on your own devices and are not synchronized to the official cloud.
Librum-Server can be run with Docker. We provide a docker-compose.yml file as well as our own images. We are using GitHub's ghrc.io Container Registry.
wget https://github.com/Librum-Reader/Librum-Server/raw/main/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up -dIf you don't like Docker, you can also selfhost Librum-Server by running it as a service on your linux server. Instructions can be found here.
