Calibre

Mobile app setup

The best way to access the ebook library is via the OPDS server, which some ebook apps have. The best option is Moon+ Reader or Maple ReaderSE (Android/iOS) on Android or iOS respectively. They are not free apps, but they have ad-supported versions.

Regardless of which app you choose, the setup should be the same. In the app, add a new OPDS server. The server URL should be https://calibre.mumquhar.com/opds, and the login credentials you were given should work.

If logging in does not work, do not keep trying. There is a Fail2Ban protocol running on the server that monitors logs for multiple failed attempts and bans the IP they come from.

List of tools/services that are web-based.

Books - E and Audio

Audiobooks:

iPhone:

The first party app is still in beta and is likely currently full. The developer should be releasing the iOS app out of beta soon.

Download on the App Store.

If the beta is full (very likely), then the alternative for iOS is plappa.

Android:

Download on the Google Play Store.

Logging In:

Server/URL - https://abs.mumquhar.com

User/pass as assigned.

Ebooks:

The audiobook apps (not including plappa, it does not have ebook support) set up in the previous steps are capable of reading and downloading ebooks as well. It does lack some features, anotating and highlighting for example, are not yet implemented on the backend. 

An app that supports OPDS servers is required to set up a dedicated reader app. There are many to choose from; my recommendations are:

iPhone - Kybook 3

To log in, select 'Catalogs' from the bottom menu and click 'Add'. Put whatever you'd like in the 'Title' field and https://calibre.mumquhar.com/opds in the URL field. Click done, and you should be prompted for your user/pass.

Android - Moon+

To log in, click 'Add New Catalog...' from the' Online Library' tab. Input https://calibre.mumquhar.com/opds as the URL and you should be prompted for your user/pass.
