Mango is a self-hosted manga server and reader. Its features include

- Multi-user support
- OPDS support
- Dark/light mode switch
- Supported formats: `.cbz`, `.zip`, `.cbr` and `.rar`
- Supports nested folders in library
- Automatically stores reading progress
- Thumbnail generation
- Supports [plugins](https://github.com/hkalexling/mango-plugins) to download from third-party sites
- The web reader is responsive and works well on mobile, so there is no need for a mobile app
- All the static files are embedded in the binary, so the deployment process is easy and painless

Please check the [Wiki](https://github.com/hkalexling/Mango/wiki) for more information.

## Installation

### Pre-built Binary

Simply download the pre-built binary file `mango` for the latest [release](https://github.com/hkalexling/Mango/releases). All the dependencies are statically linked, and it should work with most Linux systems on amd64.

### Docker

1. Make sure you have docker installed and running. You will also need `docker-compose`
2. Clone the repository
3. Copy the `env.example` file to `.env`
4. Fill out the values in the `.env` file. Note that the main and config directories will be created if they don't already exist. The files in these folders will be owned by the root user
5. Run `docker-compose up`. This should build the docker image and start the container with Mango running inside
6. Head over to `localhost:9000` (or a different port if you changed it) to log in

### Docker (via Dockerhub)

The official docker images are available on [Dockerhub](https://hub.docker.com/r/hkalexling/mango).

### Build from source

1. Make sure you have `crystal`, `shards` and `yarn` installed. You might also need to install the development headers of some libraries. Please see the [Dockerfile](https://github.com/hkalexling/Mango/blob/master/Dockerfile) for the full list of dependencies
2. Clone the repository
3. `make && sudo make install`
4. Start Mango by running the command `mango`
5. Head over to `localhost:9000` to log in

## Usage

### CLI

```
Mango - Manga Server and Web Reader. Version 0.27.0

Usage:

mango [sub_command] [options]

Options:

-c PATH, --config=PATH Path to the config file [type:String]
-h, --help Show this help.
-v, --version Show version.

Sub Commands:

admin Run admin tools
```

### Config

The default config file location is `~/.config/mango/config.yml`. It might be different if you are running Mango in a docker container. The config options and default values are given below

```yaml
---
host: 0.0.0.0
port: 9000
base_url: /
session_secret: mango-session-secret
library_path: ~/mango/library
db_path: ~/mango/mango.db
queue_db_path: ~/mango/queue.db
scan_interval_minutes: 5
thumbnail_generation_interval_hours: 24
log_level: info
upload_path: ~/mango/uploads
plugin_path: ~/mango/plugins
download_timeout_seconds: 30
library_cache_path: ~/mango/library.yml.gz
cache_enabled: true
cache_size_mbs: 50
cache_log_enabled: true
disable_login: false
default_username: ""
auth_proxy_header_name: ""
plugin_update_interval_hours: 24
```

- `scan_interval_minutes`, `thumbnail_generation_interval_hours`, and `plugin_update_interval_hours` can be any non-negative integer. Setting them to `0` disables the periodic tasks
- `log_level` can be `debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`, `fatal` or `off`. Setting it to `off` disables the logging
- You can disable authentication by setting `disable_login` to true. Note that `default_username` must be set to an existing username for this to work.
- By setting `cache_enabled` to `true`, you can enable an experimental feature where Mango caches library metadata to improve page load time. You can further fine-tune the feature with `cache_size_mbs` and `cache_log_enabled`.

### Library Structure

You can organize your archive files in nested folders in the library directory. Here's an example:

```
.
├── Manga 1
│   ├── Volume 1.cbz
│   ├── Volume 2.cbz
│   ├── Volume 3.cbz
│   └── Volume 4.zip
└── Manga 2
   └── Vol. 1
   └── Ch.1 - Ch.3
   ├── 1.zip
   ├── 2.zip
   └── 3.zip
```

### Initial Login

On the first run, Mango would log the default username and a randomly generated password to STDOUT. You are advised to immediately change the password.
