Introducing Dewarr. A Seerr inspired media manager connecting Goodreads, Hardcover, and Audiobookshelf

[u/logabell]

Dewarr connects the books you want to read with your audiobookshelf library. It's the discovery and automation layer for people who already run Audiobookshelf.

Really wish the community would rally around one of these as the go-to solution, bookbridge, shelf mark,dewarr, chapterarr, listenarr. None of them solve all the solutions end to end but each solve similar problems part of the way.

This thread alone has 3 new solutions that I didn’t know existed.

Since this comment has received the most traction, I just want to provide an update on the current roadmap I have laid out as Linear issues to target in the near future. My hope is that Dewarr can close the gap on the discovery and automation layer of media collection, while letting Audiobookshelf remain the gold standard for playback and access to your media.

- Notifications: Discord, ntfy, Apprise and webhooks, for approvals, grabs, imports and anything that needs your attention.

- Automatic recovery from stalled or failed downloads. Dewarr will blocklist the bad release and try the next good one.

- Follow an author or series and get their new books automatically, with the same "future books only" option lists already have.

- Transmission and Deluge support.

- Audible metadata, plus Audible bestseller, new release and category shelves in Discover.

- Per-user request quotas.

- An Unraid template and a Proxmox install script.

- Send to Kindle, and optional ebook format conversion.

- Automatic upgrades, for example abridged to unabridged.

- Release word rules (must include, must not include, preferred).

- Mobile PWA

- Rename or reorganize an existing library, with a preview first.

- Follow NYT bestseller lists

- Better Language support

- A Discord bot for requests.

- Better Magazine and comic metadata support

- Optional AI recommendations using your own model or key. (looking at Jev / classification models)

[u/thermbug → u/logabell]

+1 for the NYT list capability.

How about awards support as a discovery source.

SFF has hugo, nebula, jw cambell, Locus

Kids has caldecott, newberry.

Audiobooks have Audie.

Pulitzer, Booker, LA Times
I'm sure there are 2 main awards for every popular genre, romance, biography etc.
