Gazee

Gazee is a comic viewer for the web browser. This is a re-factor of the original, made with the main author's blessings. I tore some stuff out. It was easier to start a new repo.

Works great with Mylar comic book management, but not needed.

Check out the Wiki for detailed instructions on setup if you need them.

Questions can also be asked in the #gazee channel on Freenode

HTTPS Support

Bookmarks remember where you left off as you read.

Multiple Users and Admins

Much more to come!

Requirements

  • Python 3.6
  • CherryPy
  • Mako
  • Pillow
  • rarfile
  • GitPython

Requirements can be installed easily in the setup section below.

Unrar Downloads

Unrar needs to be installed and visible in the path of the user Gazee is running under to be able to properly extract all CBRs.

Double check this on Windows, different systems have different requirements for making sure you have unrar visbile in your users path.

Unrar for Windows, windows also needs command line accessible Git installed, gone over in the install guide on the wiki

Centos needs Unrar from RPMFusion, not Offical/EPEL unar application. unar is out of date and will fail with certain types of cbrs and other rar archives.

Debian

Setup

Step 1: Clone the repository and install python dependencies

cd <directory you want to install to>
git clone https://github.com/hubbcaps/gazee.git
cd gazee
sudo python3 setup.py install

During the installation, look for a line like:

Installing Gazee script to /usr/lib/python3.6/bin/

That if that directory isn't in your path, you can always do something like:

cd /usr/local/bin
ln -s /usr/lib/python3.6/bin/Gazee

...and start Gazee:

Gazee

Step 2: Logon to Gazee's Web UI)

Go to https://localhost:4242

Default username and password for the web interface:

It will prompt you for a username / pw if you start the program without an admin user created. Default accounts are generallya a bad idea.

Proceed to the settings page and change your admin pass, and enter the path to your comic library and optionally your Mylar DB for better comic info extraction.

Daemonize (Linux & OSX only)

You can easily run the program in Daemon mode by using the -d flag

python Gazee.py -d

QOL Features on the Roadmap

These are features that will make Gazee better and more up to par in what should be expected of a modern comic reader, but aren't needed for actual usability.
