Release Notes

homelibrary-0.0.1-alpha

The first version of homelibrary is an alpha release, which for this project means that not all the functionality may be in place, and some of it may not work. There are very likely bugs here and there, and there's a chance that if you use it, the data you enter might get corrupted. It is, however, safe to use in the sense that it won't harm your system.

A list of the functionality currently present:

Add Book - Yes, the most important thing, you can indeed add a book. It stores information on authors (allowing you to assign as many authors as you want to a book), series, who owns the book, condition, whether it's checked out or not, and an optional "notes" field for anything else you want to know. it also lets you store ISBN, year, edition, type (hardcover, etc.), and even where it is. It lets you keep track of multiple copies of the same book as well.
Status - You can list a book as checked out, saying who has it, and can easily list it as returned to the shelf.
Users - Well, right now anyone who can access the server can add a user and then login and start using your library, so be careful! But, it does have minimal support for users. Trust me, this is one of the top priorities for me.
Edit - You can edit pretty much everything in the library one way or another, even if that takes deleting and adding with the changes.
Browse - The front page shows all the books you've got. I hope you like it sorted by author's last name, because that's all you're getting. There may be issues with support for multiple authors on one book right now here, but hey...

So, the basics you would need are there, but it's ugly and probably buggy. Have fun with it, and please fill out bug reports if you try it out.
