Bragi - (god of poetry in Norse mythology): Bragibooks provides a minimal and straightforward webserver that you can run remotely or locally on your server. Since Bragibooks runs in a docker, you no longer need to install dependencies on whichever OS you are on. You can

Some basics of what Bragi does:

• Merge multiple files
• Convert mp3(s)
• Cleanup existing data on an m4b file
• More features on m4b-merge's help page

You can either install this project directly or run it prepackaged in Docker.

• All prerequisites are included in the image.

• You'll need to install m4b-tool and it's dependants from the project's readme
• Run pip install -r requirements.txt from this project's directory.

To run Bragibooks as a container, you need to pass some paramaters in the run command:

Which all together should look like:

docker run --rm -d --name bragibooks -v /path/to/input:/input -v /path/to/output:/output -v /appdata/bragibooks/config:/config -p 8000:8000/tcp -e LOG_LEVEL=WARNING ghcr.io/djdembeck/bragibooks:main

version: '3'

• Copy static assets to project folder:

  python manage.py collectstatic
  

• Create the database:

  python manage.py migrate
  

• Run the celery worker for processing books:

  celery -A bragibooks_proj worker \
  --loglevel=info \ 
  --concurrency 1 \
  -E
  

• Run the web server:

  gunicorn bragibooks_proj.wsgi \
  --bind 0.0.0.0:8000 \
  --timeout 1200 \
  --worker-tmp-dir /dev/shm \
  --workers=2 \
  --threads=4 \
  --worker-class=gthread \
  --reload \
  --enable-stdio-inheritance
  

The Bragibooks process is a linear, 3 step process:

1. Select input - Use the file multi-select box to choose which books to process this session, and click next.
2. Submit ASINs - Bragi will auto search for the audiobook data on Audible.com (US only). If the data found is incorrect you can do a custom search to find the correct title and then submit for processing.
3. Wait for books to finish processing. This can take anywhere from 10 seconds to a few hours, depending on the number and type of files submitted. This will be done in the background.
4. Books page - Page where you can see the data assigned to each book after it has finished processing. You can also check the status of the books still being processed.
