## Summary
Adds AudiobookBay as a web-scraping release source for audiobook
torrents. Once enabled, a new tab shows up in the Find Releases modal.
## What's New
- **AudiobookBay source** – Search AudiobookBay for audiobook torrents
from the Shelfmark UI
- **Torrent downloads** – Extract magnet links from detail pages and add
them to the configured torrent client
- **Audiobook-only** – Source is limited to audiobooks
- **Download clients:** Currently uses the torrent client configured
under **Prowlarr > Download Clients**.
- Audiobook-specific categories (e.g. `QBITTORRENT_CATEGORY_AUDIOBOOK`)
are applied when set.
- **Settings → AudiobookBay**:
- Enable toggle
- Hostname
- Max pages to search (default 5)
- Rate limit delay in seconds (default 1)
## How It Works
1. User searches for an audiobook; AudiobookBay is queried if enabled.
2. Results show title, language, format, and size
3. User selects a release; the handler fetches the detail page and
extracts the magnet link.
4. Magnet link is sent to the configured torrent client.
## Testing
- Unit tests for source, handler, scraper, and utils
- Mocked HTTP requests and torrent client calls
- Coverage for search, relevance filtering, language mapping, size
parsing, and download flow

- Adds a comprehensive multi-user request system to the existing
download flow
- Request configuration is policy based. Configure global settings for
content type, or narrow down policy for specific sources (E.g. allow
direct downloads, set prowlarr to request only, block IRC completely,
etc).
- Global policy configuration and per-user overrides for tailored
configs
- Replaced downloads sidebar with ActivitySidebar, combining active
downloads with requests. Admin management of user requests is done here,
and admins have view of downloads from all users. Sidebar can now be
pinned.
- Request either a standard book or a specific release. Release-requests
are used if you permit one source differently than the other. On
book-level requests, admins pick the specific file to be attached to the
fulfilled request.
- Users can request books with a note
This is WIP so some features are still not complete (notifications, more
automatic release selection, among others).
Closes#552
## Summary
Adds OIDC authentication and multi-user support to Shelfmark. Users can
now be managed individually with per-user download settings, while
maintaining full backwards compatibility with existing auth modes
(no-auth, builtin, proxy, CWA).
### Authentication
- **OIDC login** with PKCE, auto-discovery, group-based admin mapping
- **Password fallback** when OIDC is enabled (prevents admin lockout)
- **Auto-provisioning** of OIDC users (configurable on/off)
- **Email-based linking** of pre-created users to OIDC accounts
- **Lockout prevention** — requires a local admin before OIDC can be
enabled
### User Management
- **SQLite user database** (`users.db`) with admin CRUD API
- **Users management tab** in settings UI (admin-only)
- **Settings restricted to admins** in multi-user modes (builtin/OIDC) —
non-admin users cannot access settings
- Create, edit, and delete users with role assignment (admin/user)
- Password management for builtin auth users
- OIDC users shown with provider badge (password fields hidden)
- Per-user configurable settings:
- **Download destination** — custom folder path per user
- **BookLore library & path** — dropdown select, each user's books go to
their own library
- **Email recipients** — per-user email delivery targets
- **`{User}` template variable** — use in destination paths (e.g.,
`/books/{User}/`)
- Settings override model: per-user values override globals, empty/unset
falls back to global defaults
### Download Scoping
- **Per-user download visibility** — non-admins only see their own
downloads
- **Username display** in downloads sidebar (shows who requested each
download)
- **WebSocket room-based filtering** — admins see all, users see only
their own
- **Download progress scoping** — progress events routed to correct user
rooms
### BookLore Integration
- **Dynamic dropdown selects** for library/path (replaces text inputs)
- **Per-user library/path overrides** via user settings
- **Options cache refresh** after Test Connection
### Security
- SQL injection prevention (column whitelist on user updates)
- Generic OIDC error messages (no internal detail leakage)
- Admin self-deletion and last-local-admin deletion guards
- OIDC role overwrite fix (only updates role when admin_group is
configured)
## Migration
**No migration script needed.** The `users.db` is created automatically
on first startup. Existing builtin auth users are auto-migrated to the
database on their first login. All other auth modes (no-auth, proxy,
CWA) continue working unchanged.
## Test Plan
- [x] All 519 tests passing, 0 failures
- [ ] Test no-auth mode: settings accessible, downloads work without
login
- [ ] Test builtin auth: legacy credentials auto-migrate on login, new
users can be created
- [ ] Test OIDC auth: login flow, callback, auto-provisioning,
group-based admin
- [ ] Test CWA auth: unchanged behavior
- [ ] Test proxy auth: unchanged behavior
- [ ] Test per-user downloads: non-admin sees only own downloads
- [ ] Test BookLore dropdowns: library/path selection, per-user
overrides
- [ ] Test Docker build: no Dockerfile changes needed

- Added alternative file processing mode. Save files directly into a
library folder and set up file names / directories based on user
preference.
- Uses template based naming and directory creation. E.g. {Author} /
{Series} {Title} {Part} etc. Works for saving correctly to libraries
such as Audiobookshelf.
- Use torrent hardlinking directly into library directories.
Hey, made the tweaks we discussed, plus a couple related fixes :)
- Removed APP_ENV entirely. All dev-specific functionality is enabled
via `DEBUG: true` env var
- Set secure cookie handling to false by default, added to the readme to
enable if exclusively using HTTPS connection
- Fixed healthcheck potentially not working with auth enabled
- Removed APP_ENV from docker compose files and made sure app.db lines
are included in all versions.
APP_ENV in people's existing composes should get ignored entirely and
will be put on the default env, so no issues when updating.
Re: Issue #122
Fetches content type from search results - displays it on thumbnails in
results grid;
Fetches content type from book id detail page (dfaults to "Other") and
uses it to construct the `final_path`.

This commit removes all references to the deprecated /request route
prefix
that was previously used for dual routing. The following changes were
made:
- Removed register_dual_routes() function that registered routes with
/request prefix
- Removed url_for_with_request() helper function for generating /request
URLs
- Removed call to register_dual_routes(app) at application startup
- Removed /request/ prefixed favicon routes
- Updated StatusEndpointFilter to remove /request/api/status log
filtering
- Removed unused flask_url_for import
All routes now only use the standard paths without the /request prefix.

Adding support for an external CloudFlare bypasser service and
introducing a new Docker image build with a dedicated target.
Key Changes
- Added `cloudflare_bypasser_external.py` for external bypasser
integration.
- Updated Docker Compose files to support the new service.
- Introduced a new Docker target for building a separate image for the
external bypasser.
- Refactored relevant modules to utilize the external bypasser when
configured.
- Documentation and configuration updates to reflect new options and
Docker targets.
Impact
- Users can now choose between internal and external CloudFlare
bypassing.
- New Docker image and target streamline deployment of the external
bypasser.
- Improved modularity and maintainability.
- No breaking changes for existing workflows.
Testing
- Manual and E2E tests performed for both bypasser modes.
- Docker Compose setups and new image build verified for development and
production.
Notes
Please review the new configuration options and Docker targets. Update
your environment and deployment scripts as needed. Feedback and
suggestions are welcome!
Added details to fix "database locked" error for anyone using a cifs
share for their library under volumes. nobrl option needs to be added to
the mount line in your fstab file. e.g. //192.168.1.1/Books /media/books
cifs credentials=.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,nobrl
This commit adds user authentication, using Calibre-Web's app.db as its
authentication source, as requested in #56. It uses @prinzpi's
[comment](https://github.com/calibrain/calibre-web-automated-book-downloader/issues/56#issuecomment-2919335169)
as a starting point, but integrates the logic directly into the app.
This requires the user to specify the environment variable CONFIG_ROOT,
set to Calibre-Web's config directory (the directory that contains the
app.db database that holds the user's authentication information).
If the user does not wish to add authentication, they can simply leave
CONFIG_ROOT unset, or not pointing at Calibre-Web's app.db directory.
Refactor: Improve Docker build, add Tor support, use SeleniumBase
- Overhauled Dockerfile:
- Switched to python:3.10-slim base.
- Implemented multi-stage builds (base, standard, tor).
- Consolidated RUN layers for efficiency.
- Added locale/timezone setup.
- Added Tor setup and iptables configuration in dedicated stage/script.
- Replaced DrissionPage with SeleniumBase for Cloudflare bypassing.
- Added Tor support via `docker-compose.tor.yml` and `tor.sh` script.
- Updated `docker-compose.yml` to build locally and changed default port
to 8083.
- Added `docker-compose.dev.yml` and `docker-compose.tor.dev.yml`.
- Updated `entrypoint.sh` for timezone and sudo usage.
- Added/Updated environment variables (`TZ`, `USING_TOR`, etc.).
- Improved `.dockerignore`.
- Updated `readme.md` to reflect port changes, build process, document
`TZ`, and add details about the new Tor variant.
The Calibre dependency was due to the script testing for validity of the
downloaded file, as often they would be corrupted from aa. But CWA is
already doing that, so we are just having redundant code here.
For the cloudflarebypasser, I basically run my own version now, instead
of depending on an external library, this way we have better control for
debugging and on the docker image.

This PR uses the Anna's Archive API to get a fast download URL to
download the book directly. Bypasses parsing HTML with the Cloudflare
proxy.

This PR add the option to set UID/GID during runtime, making sure the
application is running as a non-root user.
Besides this, it also helps with making sure UID/GID match between
containers.
