\fBcalibredb\fP is the command line interface to the calibre database. It has
several sub\-commands, documented below.
.sp
\fBcalibredb\fP can be used to manipulate either a calibre database
specified by path or a calibre Content server running either on
the local machine or over the internet. You can start a calibre
Content server using either the \fBcalibre\-server\fP
program or in the main calibre program click Connect/share  → 
Start Content server\&. Since \fBcalibredb\fP can make changes to your
calibre libraries, you must setup authentication on the server first. There
are two ways to do that:

.IP \(bu 2
If you plan to connect only to a server running on the same computer,
you can simply use the \fB\-\-enable\-local\-write\fP option of the
Content server, to allow any program, including calibredb, running on
the local computer to make changes to your calibre data. When running
the server from the main calibre program, this option is in
Preferences → Sharing over the net → Advanced\&.
.IP \(bu 2
If you want to enable access over the internet, then you should setup
user accounts on the server and use the \fI\%\-\-username\fP and \fI\%\-\-password\fP
options to \fBcalibredb\fP to give it access. You can setup
user authentication for \fBcalibre\-server\fP by using the \fB\-\-enable\-auth\fP
option and using \fB\-\-manage\-users\fP to create the user accounts.
If you are running the server from the main calibre program, use
Preferences → Sharing over the net → Require username/password\&.

To connect to a running Content server, pass the URL of the server to the
\fI\%\-\-with\-library\fP option, see the documentation of that option for
details and examples.

Path to the calibre library. Default is to use the path stored in the settings. You can also connect to a calibre Content server to perform actions on remote libraries. To do so use a URL of the form: \fI\%http://hostname:port/#library_id\fP for example, \fI\%http://localhost:8080/#mylibrary\fP\&. library_id is the library id of the library you want to connect to on the Content server. You can use the special library_id value of \- to get a list of library ids available on the server. For details on how to setup access via a Content server, see \fI\%https://manual.calibre\-ebook.com/generated/en/calibredb.html\fP\&.
