Calibre Server on Linux

Calibre Server on Linux

Introduction

Calibre is a powerful cross-platform, open source, ebook manager and editing platform. Its calibre-server component can be used to publish an e-book library on a local network. While you can launch calibre-server as a desktop application, it can also be run as a daemon on a headless Linux server.

This tutorial on setting up calibre-server using Ubuntu 14.04 is very good, but dated.

Setting up your python development environment (with pyenv, virtualenv, and virtualenvwrapper)

Overview of Python Virtual Environments

This guide is targetted at intermediate or expert users who want low-level control over their Python environments.

When you're working on multiple coding projects, you might want a couple different version of Python and/or modules installed. This helps keep each workflow in its own sandbox instead of trying to juggle multiple projects (each with different dependencies) on your system's version of Python. The guide here covers one way to handle multiple Python versions and Python environments on your own (i.e., without a package manager like conda). See the Using the workflow section to view the end result.

Python Metaprogramming: An example of how to use Abstract Syntax Trees (ast module) in Python to turn bare expressions (not bound to any target variable names) in an end-user configuration file into elements of a list.
"""
This file is made by the user, to set up model components for a Markov Chain
Monte Carlo galaxy simulator.
For simplicity, I didn't want to force the user to bind everything to variables,
or follow some particular naming scheme, or remember to add them to a list, etc.
YAML or such seemed like overkill, since python keyword arguments already make it
pretty human-readable

Items I'm unsure of are marked '# PCRE?'. The list while fairly comprehensive is not complete.
