Welcome to the documentation for AudioBookRequest.

What is it?

AudioBookRequest is a tool that can be used in combination with media servers like plex/audiobookserver/jellyfin/etc. to easily set up a pipeline for creating a wishlist of audiobooks you want to listen to.

Why do I want it?

Help your user know if your project will help them. Useful information can include:

  • What is it good for?: If you have multiple people using your ABS instance and you don't want them to always have to message you for new books or you don't want to give them access to something like Readarr/Prowlarr, you can use AudioBookRequest to allow them to easily request any books they want to listen to and have it notify and/or automatically start any required downloads.

  • What is it not good for?: AudioBookRequest is not a full replacement for Readarr, nor is that the plan. Readarr does a lot of things, but it is also currently in a very messy state development-wise. ABR does not keep track of your library, while automatically downloading new releases and trying to upgrade the quality of already existing audiobooks. These are features that are less relevant with audiobooks. It also does not handle moving any downloads, add metadata to files, or rename files according to some structure. The idea is to optionally add another script/app along-side it if that feature is desired.

Where should I go next?
