LazyLibrarian

Setting it up

Mount the folder LazyLibrarian has at /config into Backuparr. It’s LazyLibrarian’s datadir, which holds its database and config; LazyLibrarian’s docs have no page on backups.

On LazyLibrarian’s card, enter its URL - for example http://lazylibrarian:5299 - the full-access API key (Config > Interface

API), and that folder as the Data folder. Click Test connection.

Backups and restores

  • What’s in the backup: LazyLibrarian’s own backup - its database, config.ini, and any dicts.json, genres.json and file/login templates. Books, magazines and covers aren’t included.
  • Mount it read-write: LazyLibrarian writes each backup into that folder and Backuparr removes it once collected. With a read-only mount the files stay there and restores don’t work.
  • Restore only while LazyLibrarian is stopped. It replaces the database and settings, the API key included.
