## Calibre-Web Installation on TrueNAS Core 12:
1. Install Calibre-Web from the `Community` collection in the `Plugins` panel

2. Keep the `POST INSTALL NOTES` for further use

3. Click on `MANAGE` to open your Calibre-Web (the credentials are written in the notes you just kept in the format `[username]:[password]`)

4. Now we're going to add our database (library). Go to the `Storage / Pools` panel and on your pool **add a dataset** (with SMB share type)

5. Go to `Sharing / SMB / Add` and **add** Calibre

6. Make sure SMB is enabled on the `Services` panel

7. Go back to the `Storage / Pools`, click on the vertical '...' of the **Calibre dataset** and click on `Edit Permissions`:
- DELETE all items on `Access Control List` section
- Add an item with *who* at `User`, *Permissions* at `Full Control` and *User* at `(your ID on the notes, mine is 488)` (it shows you an error message on the *User* but it works for me)
- Add an item for you with your personal user or group (*Permissions* at `Full Control`)
- Turn on `Apply permissions recursively`
- Save

9. Now we will link this dataset with Calibre-Web (every plugin is into a 'jail', like Docker so we can not go to the good path directly). Turn off the Calibre by clicking on the STOP button

10. Go to the `Jails` panel, open `calibre` jail and click on `MOUNT POINTS`

11. On the `ACTIONS` button, click on `ADD`
- Then select `Calibre` as the source and a new folder as the destination (just type with the keyboard the folder you want)
- In this tutorial the destination`/mnt/test/iocage/jails/calibre/root/library` is used
- Hit `SUBMIT`

12. Go on the Calibre Desktop App (on your Windows or Linux) and click on `Library / Change/Create a library`
Alternativly copy an already existing library to your NAS

13. Select `\\[servername or ip]\[calibre dataset]` and check `Create`

14. Add every book you want
15. START Calibre-Web and click on `MANAGE` to go to the main page. After login, enter the `Location of Calibre database`. If you followed the tutorial exactly it's `/library`
16. You should already see every book you have
