## Readarr

Readarr is a **book management tool** in the Servarr ecosystem that automates downloading, sorting, and renaming books — the book equivalent of Radarr/Sonarr.

## Homarr Integration

Readarr is categorized as a **Media Manager / Servarr** integration in Homarr.

### Widgets & Capabilities

| Widget | Function |
|--------|----------|
| **Calendar** | Displays upcoming book release/arrival events in a calendar view within a configurable relative time period |

The Calendar widget gives a unified media arrival schedule — similar to how [[wiki/homelab/homarr-radarr-integration|Radarr]] surfaces movie releases in the same widget type.

### Adding the Integration

Follow the standard [[wiki/homelab/homarr-integrations|Homarr Integrations]] setup flow:
1. Navigate to **Integrations Management** in Homarr settings
2. Add Readarr with its URL and API key
3. Assign to board widgets as needed

## Key Takeaways

- Readarr is the Servarr-family tool for **books** (mirrors Radarr for movies, Sonarr for TV)
- Only one widget currently supported: **Calendar** — shows upcoming book downloads/arrivals
- Integration setup follows the same standard flow as all other [[wiki/homelab/homarr-integrations|Homarr integrations]]
- Pairs naturally with [[wiki/homelab/homarr-download-client|Download Client widget]] to monitor actual download progress once books are queued
