* Some performance refactoring around getting Library and avoid a byte[] copy for getting cover images for epubs. * Initial commit. Rewrote the main series scan loop to use chunks of data at a time. Not fully shaken out. * Hooked in the ability for the UI to react to series being added or removed from the DB. * Cleaned up the messaging in the scan loop to be more clear. * Metadata scan and scan work as expected and populate data to the UI. There is a slow down in speed for overall operation. Scan series and refresh series metadata does not work fully. * Fixed a bug where MangaFiles were not having LastModified Updated correctly, meaning they were opening archives every scan. * Modified the code to be more realistic to the underlying file * Updated ScanService to properly handle deleted files and not result in a higher-level scan. * Shuffled around volume related repo apis to the volume repo rather than being in series. * Rewrote scan series to be much cleaner and more concise on the flow. Fixed an issue in UpdateVolumes such that the debug code to log out removed volumes could throw an exception and actually break updating volumes. * Refactored the code to set MangaFile last modified timestamp into the MangaFile entity. * Added Series Name to ScanSeries event * Added additional checks in ScanSeries to ensure we never go outside the library folder. Added extra debug messages for when a metadata refresh doesn't actually make changes and for when we regen cover images. * More logging statements saying where they originate from. Fixed a critical bug which caused only 1 chunk to ever be processed. * Fixed a concurrency issue with natural sorter which could cause issues in ArchiveService.cs. * Log cleanups * Fixed an issue with logging out total time of a scan. * Only show added toastrs for admins. When kicking off a refresh metadata for series, make sure we regenerate all cover images. * Code smells on benchmark despite it being ignored

Demo
If you want to try out Kavita, we have a demo up: https://demo.kavitareader.com/
Username: demouser
Password: Demouser64
Setup
Non-Docker
- Unzip the archive for your target OS
- Place in a directory that is writable. If on windows, do not place in Program Files
- Linux users must ensure the directory & kavita.db is writable by Kavita (might require starting server once)
- Run Kavita
- If you are updating, do not copy appsettings.json from the new version over. It will override your TokenKey and you will have to reauthenticate on your devices.
Docker
Running your Kavita server in docker is super easy! Barely an inconvenience. You can run it with this command:
docker run --name kavita -p 5000:5000 \
-v /your/manga/directory:/manga \
-v /kavita/data/directory:/kavita/data \
--restart unless-stopped \
-d kizaing/kavita:latest
You can also run it via the docker-compose file:
version: '3.9'
services:
kavita:
image: kizaing/kavita:latest
volumes:
- ./manga:/manga
- ./data:/kavita/data
ports:
- "5000:5000"
restart: unless-stopped
Note: Kavita is under heavy development and is being updated all the time, so the tag for current builds is :nightly. The :latest tag will be the latest stable release. There is also the :alpine tag if you want a smaller image, but it is only available for x64 systems.
