# Ebook Search Docker

Run the EPUB search app against the existing Postgres database on `jeeves`:

```sh
ebook-search-containers start --library-path /path/to/epubs --build
```

All ebook-search Docker files live in this directory:

- `Dockerfile`
- `docker-compose.yml`
- `containers.py`
- `container.py`

The app listens on `http://localhost:8070`.

Useful lifecycle commands:

```sh
ebook-search-containers build
ebook-search-containers start --library-path /path/to/epubs
ebook-search-containers logs
ebook-search-containers ps
ebook-search-containers stop
```

Direct compose usage from the repo root:

```sh
docker compose -f python/ebook_search/docker/docker-compose.yml ps
```

The compose service also loads the repo root `.env` into the container via `env_file`.

Mount your EPUB directory by setting `EBOOK_LIBRARY_HOST_PATH` in an env file or on the command line. The container sees it as `/library`, and `EBOOK_SEARCH_LIBRARY_PATHS` is set to `/library` inside the container.

Database connection settings are controlled by `RICHIE_DB`, `RICHIE_HOST`, `RICHIE_PORT`, `RICHIE_USER`, and `RICHIE_PASSWORD`. The default host is `jeeves`.

Startup runs the Richie Alembic migrations automatically after creating the `main` schema and `vector` extension.
