Summary

Fixes #122.

Calibre Web needs /books to point at an existing Calibre library containing metadata.db; it does not create that library database on first start. This PR clarifies that requirement in both active template entry points:

  • Template/template.json
  • V1 Template/template.json

Validation

  • npm test
  • npx jsonlint Template/template.json --quiet
  • npx jsonlint "V1 Template/template.json" --quiet
  • git diff --check
