DEPRECATION NOTICE
This image is deprecated. We will not offer support for this image and it will not be updated. COPS has been abandoned by its developers and no actively maintained forks exist at this time.
linuxserver/cops
Cops by Sébastien Lucas, stands for Calibre OPDS (and HTML) Php Server.
COPS links to your Calibre library database and allows downloading and emailing of books directly from a web browser and provides a OPDS feed to connect to your devices.
Changes in your Calibre library are reflected immediately in your COPS pages.
See : COPS's home for more details.
Don't forget to check the Wiki.
Why? (taken from the author's site)
In my opinion Calibre is a marvelous tool but is too big and has too much dependencies to be used for its content server.
That's the main reason why I coded this OPDS server. I needed a simple tool to be installed on a small server (Seagate Dockstar in my case).
I initially thought of Calibre2OPDS but as it generate static file no search was possible.
Later I added an simple HTML catalog that should be usable on my Kobo.
So COPS's main advantages are :
- No need for many dependencies.
- No need for a lot of CPU or RAM.
- Not much code.
- Search is available.
- With Dropbox / owncloud it's very easy to have an up to date OPDS server.
- It was fun to code.
If you want to use the OPDS feed don't forget to specify feed.php at the end of your URL.
Supported Architectures
We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.
Simply pulling lscr.io/linuxserver/cops:latest
should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.
The architectures supported by this image are:
Architecture | Available | Tag |
---|---|---|
x86-64 | ✅ | amd64-<version tag> |
arm64 | ✅ | arm64v8-<version tag> |
armhf | ✅ | arm32v7-<version tag> |
Application Setup
Access the webui at http://<docker host ip>:80
. For connecting via OPDS on a mobile device use http://<docker host ip>:80/feed.php
. It is strongly suggested that you reverse proxy this prior to exposing to the internet. For more information, such as requiring credentials, check the COPS Wiki (linked above).
The linuxserver version gives you access to config_local.php
in /config
to customise your install to suit your needs, it also includes the dependencies required to directly view epub books in your browser.
Usage
To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.
docker-compose (recommended, click here for more info)
---
version: "2.1"
services:
cops:
image: lscr.io/linuxserver/cops:latest
container_name: cops
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- TZ=Etc/UTC
volumes:
- <path to data>:/config
- <path to data>:/books
ports:
- 80:80

Parameters
Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal>
respectively. For example, -p 8080:80
would expose port 80
from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080
outside the container.
Ports (-p
)
Parameter | Function |
---|---|
80 |
WebUI |
Environment Variables (-e
)
Env | Function |
---|---|
PUID=1000 |
for UserID - see below for explanation |
PGID=1000 |
for GroupID - see below for explanation |
TZ=Etc/UTC |
specify a timezone to use, see this list. |
Volume Mappings (-v
)
Volume | Function |
---|---|
/config |
COPS Application Data. |
/books |
Calibre metadata.db location. |
Miscellaneous Options
Parameter | Function |
---|
Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)
You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__
.
As an example:
-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword
Will set the environment variable PASSWORD
based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretpassword
file.
Umask for running applications
For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022
setting.
Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.
User / Group Identifiers
When using volumes (-v
flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID
and group PGID
.
Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.
In this instance PUID=1000
and PGID=1000
, to find yours use id user
as below:
$ id username
uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)
Docker Mods
We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
Support Info
- Shell access whilst the container is running:
docker exec -it cops /bin/bash
- To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:
docker logs -f cops
- Container version number
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' cops
- Image version number
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' lscr.io/linuxserver/cops:latest
