Can confirm (for sharing; not so much for the reading stats, sorry). I run Calibre on my desktop; on desktops and laptops I use the content server for built-in online reading. For the Kobos in the house, they plug in and I click "Send to Device" for any new books. Kindles I hit "Send to Kindle" and it uses the email delivery system for it to magically appear on my Kindle. Androids and iPhones have myriad apps that will happily consumer Calibre's content server.

I keep the metadata up to date, strip Kindle DRM from the books I buy from Amazon, and maintain a giant personal DRM-free collection of books and comics (which Calibre also handles!). It's one of my favorite pieces of software.

One fun thing about Calibre is that the library is stored in a SQLite database. So, if you write a wrapper to parse that data, you don’t even need Calibre’s content server running!

I have the library stored on my NAS and am running a fairly simple Node.JS + Express + React web app on my Raspberry Pi that reads the database and provides web access this content.

Sadly, I don’t have the code in a publisher format as of yet.

One thing I’ve been meaning to do is add an upload feature so that I can have the web app add ebooks to the library. For now, I still have to fire up Calibre for that.

Edit: Wow, I just saw a post below for Calibre-Web. It’s the same thing I had been working on but it’s much much nicer than what I had hacked together!

+1 for Calibre and KOreader combo for remotely browsing ebooks. It works surprisingly seamlessly!

Calibre is an insane piece of software on its own. Pretty much the only Swiss Army knife you need for anything “epub”.
