Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes

  • Set up a username and password first Komga's protected API examples use basic authentication (a simple username-and-password login method). Create a username and password before first use, or you won't be able to sign in or make protected API calls. source
  • Install Komga with Helm on Kubernetes If you use Helm (a Kubernetes tool for installing apps), run helm repo add helmforge https://repo.helmforge.dev, then helm repo update and helm install komga helmforge/komga, or use helm install komga oci://ghcr.io/helmforgedev/helm/komga for direct OCI. This installs Komga in your cluster so you don't have to manually copy files and set up the app by hand. source
  • Install Komga with Scoop on Windows If you're on Windows, use Scoop (a Windows app installer) to run scoop bucket add extras and scoop install komga. This gives you a ready-to-run Komga program instead of downloading and setting up files yourself. source

Common questions

What do I need to set up before using Komga's protected API?

Create a username and password before first use. Komga's protected API examples use basic authentication, and if you skip this you may not be able to sign in or make protected API calls.

How can I fix Komga if a default user was generated on first start?

If you started Komga without claiming the profile, it can generate a default user. Delete the database file at ~/.komga/database.sqlite to solve the issue.

Can Komga be used with mobile readers?

Yes, Komga supports OPDS, an API, and a Tachiyomi extension. One user reported it working well for streaming manga to an Android e-reader.

Does Komga import metadata from file names correctly?

A user found that Komga's importer did not incorporate metadata from file names correctly. They considered writing a Python script to edit Komga's SQLite database to fix it.
