Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I use the version packaged by linuxserver.io:
https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-calibre-web/
Unfortunately, that's about as good of docs as I've been able to find for it.
To configure external auth, go to its web interface at
/admin/config
and then expand "Feature Configuration"There's a checkbox for "Enable reverse proxy authentication" and below that a field to specify the header name that will contain the email address of the authenticated user. In my case, it's REMOTE_EMAIL.
That header will vary depending on what you have setup for authentication, but it needs to provide an email address that determines the user.
My version is a little old, but from skimming the current docs, it may support OAUTH now.
