* Updating wording on card item when total pages is 0, to be just "Cannot Read" since it could be a non-archive file * Refactored cover images to be stored on disk. This first commit has the extraction to disk and the metadata service to handle updating when applicable. * Refactored code to have the actual save to cover image directory done by ImageService. * Implemented the ability to override cover images. * Some cleanup on Image service * Implemented the ability to cleanup old covers nightly * Added a migration to migrate existing covers to new cover image format (files). * Refactored all CoverImages to just be the filename, leaving the Join with Cover directory to higher level code. * Ensure when getting user progress, we pick the first. * Added cleanup cover images for deleted tags. Don't pull any cover images that are blank. * After series update, clear out cover image. No change on UI, but just keeps things clear before metadata refresh hits * Refactored image formats for covers to ImageService. * Fixed an issue where after refactoring how images were stored, the cleanup service was deleting them after each scan. * Changed how ShouldUpdateCoverImage works to check if file exists or not even if cover image is locked. * Fixed unit tests * Added caching back to cover images. * Caching on series as well * Code Cleanup items * Ensure when checking if a file exists in MetadataService, that we join for cover image directory. After we scan library, do one last filter to delete any series that have 0 pages total. * Catch exceptions so we don't run cover migration if this is first time run. * After a scan, only clear out the cache directory and not do a deep clean. * Implemented the ability to backup custom locked covers only. * Fixed unit tests * Trying to figure out why GA crashes when running MetadataServiceTests.cs * Some debugging on GA tests not running * Commented out tests that were causing issues in GA. * Fixed an issue where series cover images wouldn't migrate * Fixed the updating of links to actually do all series and not just locked

Demo
If you want to try out Kavita, we have a demo up: https://demo.kavitareader.com/

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.
