Hi, in my first attempt to get this running in docker I get a db error and the container loops.

I pre-created the volumes and set everything according to the compose example. I think there's some steps im missing

Hi and thanks for this app

Unfortunately It doesn't fetch the cover from most of the books I add (auto fill):

Whitelabel Error Page

This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback.

There was an unexpected error (type=Not Found, status=404)

debug: 2022-05-16 16:17:37.718 DEBUG 1 --- [io-11111-exec-8] i.g.b.j.s.metadata.FetchMetadataService : parsed dto MetadataDto(title=Das Sissi-Feuerwerk: Ein Ischl-Krimi, isbn10=null, isbn13=9783492502504, summary=null, image=null, publisher=Piper, pageCount=null, publishedDate=2019-05-15T16:17:35.252073+00:00, authors=[Jenna Theiss], tags=[], series=null, numberInSeries=null, language=deu, googleId=9qp-wgEACAAJ, amazonId=null, goodreadsId=null)

Are there optional settings to fix or improve this?

Hi, I'm finding that the recent reading event list duplicates 3 of the recent books, not sure whats causing it just yet (I havent figured out why im getting "no mapping for GET" in vivaldi yet, I disabled extensions that I thought might be causing it like privacy badger and ublock origin)

I've just spun up an instance of Jelu using the exact docker-compose example file, on a Raspberry Pi 4 (ARM64). I've not used bind mounts before (I normally use volumes: - "./config:/config" , etc) and it was a bit odd having to manually create all the folders manually one at a time on my file system. I tried the way I normally do it but it had permissions errors for the database when I did that, which is a bit unusual as docker created the folders when doing it that way.

Anyway, to get to my issue, when I go to Add Book, then click Auto Fill, I search for something (say Harry Potter for the title) and it shows me words that say "cover image" (not an actual cover image). Inspecting the page I see it is trying to show the image "/files/null" There are no details retrieved for the book. I've tried a bunch of different books that should exist but no luck on any.

Hello,

I am experiencing a strange bug when adding reading events to a book. Basically I import a new book into Jelu and create a "currently reading" event with a today date. Everything works fine. Then after some days that I finish reading the book I go to Jelu again and add (+event) a new finished event with the current date (several days after the "currently reading" date). I am expecting to have two events now in the book: a started"currently reading" and a "finished" one. However, I always end up having just one "finished" event, and the "currently reading" is deleted.

Is this the expected behaviour? If I manually add the "currently reading" again, it is kept.

I hope I have managed to explain myself....

Hi,

It would be nice to have a separated (and searchable) "Translators" new field for translators. After importing my goodread list, authors and translators get mixed in the same "Authors" field.

The book auto fill feature is neat, but a lot of my books are not found, event though I can find them from their ISBN on google book. The following API endpoint can be used : https://www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes?q=isbn:<insert_isbn_here>

I could contribute an implementation if you would like me to

It seems the app is treating a 'null' date as 'unix 0 timestamp'.

After importing from Goodreads, for all the entries that were 'read' but did not have a date; as well as for all 'currently reading' books; Jelu shows the completion date as 1. 1. 1970.

For instance, this 'currently reading' (with no finish date):

Hello,

Really thank you for this tool, I have been waiting for something to keep track of my read books. I started using a single text file, then an excel sheet and finally goodreads. However, I would like to keep my data personal and also to be able to export it completely to move on if needed (not like goodreads as I painfully realice now).

Anyways, I am testing the export functionality before I commit myself fully to Jelu and realised that events are not really exported. Multiple "reading" events are ignored (only the last one is exported). Also "drop" events are ignored. Multiple "finished" seem to be supported and exported as alist though.

Is it possible to export the full list of events? Best regards,

i just set up my jelu instance (on an arm64 server) manual importing of books works. when i try to import my exported data from goodreeds i get the following errors:

The login form has the PW field limited to 30 characters, the password I originally created was 32 characters. Logging in does not work, neither by limiting to the first 30 characters of the password, nor by forcing 32 characters into the field.

Essentially the title. When a goodreads csv import is done, wrong covers get uploaded. Eg:

Some are hilariously wrong.

When you edit the book and upload the cover manually via manual file upload (not the URL), it never changes. the Upload progress bar does work, but old cover persists.

Feature Request

After my upgrade to 0.31.0 I lost the cover art for my recent imports (see screenshot). Older art is maintained. I can delete the book and re-import it, and the cover art is restored, but several books have reviews or other post-import data added that will difficult to recover.

I know we can add custom cover art, but It would be nice to have the ability to re-fetch the book cover art.

P.S. ~~maybe an issue - if I try to view the link for a cover that's missing I get a 502 error (Bad Gateway) I would have expected a 404 (file not found) but maybe that's a Tomcat thing?~~ Never mind, the missing images showed up eventually. The delay was strange, but after a few refreshes, all of a sudden the missing covers appeared. It would still be nice to be able to re-fetch the cover art manually.

The app uses more than 250MB of memory while running. This might be fine on a homelab but I would like to run it on a cloud VM that is a little more resource constrained. Any chance to get the resource usage down a bit?

Hi,

I think it would be more intuitive if the basic search box does a search through all the fields (titles,authors,series,etc.) and then in the advanced search you can really separate the search in fields. It seems right now the basic search box only searches in titles. It would also be nice to add more fields to the advanced search (language, summary and personal notes).

Furthermore, search should not consider accentuated letters so "traición" also finds "traicion".

Again, thanks for making Jelu available for all! Please feel completely free to ignore all my requests. ;)

After adding about 50 books the last book I tried to add wouldn't add, then a Error 500 popped up. Tried reloading the page, then restarting the container, then eventually removing Jelu and doing another docker-compose and I get a "login error, backend seems down or unreachable" on the login page
