Hello,

I’ve recently got several audiobooks and wanted to sync them with Yunohost, but I haven’t found any good app already packaged (that handles audiobooks well and has an Android app to ensure good sync progress in the book).

In doing some research, I came across [Audiobookshelf](https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf) which looks promising! Would an app packager be tempted? 😇  
Here are the installations docs : [Audiobookshelf](https://www.audiobookshelf.org/install)

Thanks !

I might give it a try over the weekend. The installation looks simple: [Recommendation dev environment · Discussion #259 · advplyr/audiobookshelf · GitHub](https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/discussions/259#discussioncomment-1869729)

Although, this app lacks LDAP support so there wouldn’t be any way to sync YunoHost users.

I think there is still a way : using YunoHost hooks to create/delete the users in an app when they are creased/deleted in YunoHost.

Got it to work and I have started working on it here: [GitHub - YunoHost-Apps/audiobookshelf\_ynh: Audiobookshelf package for YunoHost](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/audiobookshelf_ynh) I’ll create a post when I am satisfied with the package.

@Maime I don’t have much experience using those hooks, but they could be really useful
