OPDS catalogs

Read Flow can search external OPDS catalogs and pull titles directly into your library, without leaving the app.

Built-in catalogs

Two catalogs are enabled by default:

[[online_library.catalogs]]
type = "builtin"
id = "project_gutenberg"
enabled = true


[[online_library.catalogs]]
type = "builtin"
id = "standard_ebooks"
enabled = true

Toggle either one off from Preferences → Online libraries, or by setting enabled = false directly in read-flow.toml.

Searching

Open the Online library search from the web app’s search bar — results show cover, title, and author, with a one-click Add to library action that downloads and scans the file in.
