Ansible Role to set up a KOReader Sync server

This Ansible role sets up a KOReader sync server via Docker. Using this role, you can deploy a KOReader sync server easily & consistently.

Note

This role is not officially supported by the KOReader developers.

Requirements

This role uses the Docker module, so you must have Docker already installed on the host you want to use the role on. If you are going to build the Docker image, you need Git installed (usually this is installed with Ansible)

Role Variables

Default variables

Variable name	Explanation	Default value
server_port	The port to forward the server to	7200
container_name	The name of the sync server's container	kosync
server_directory	Where to store the sync server's files	/opt/(container name)
server_version	The version to use (from Docker)	latest
build_image	Whether to build the Docker image. This is useful for architectures the image doesn't support, like arm64.	false

Example Playbook

---
- hosts: localhost
  remote_user: root
  roles:
    - role: stilktf.koreader_sync
      server_port: 7200
      container_name: kosync
      server_directory: /opt/kosync

To deploy your server using a web server like Caddy, you could use this configuration:

sync.yourdomain.xyz {

    transport http {
      tls_insecure_skip_verify
    }
  }
}
