First, I tried to reincarnate my very old thread but dear "MobileRead" dismissed my post :) But this is OK :thumbsup: Im not too proud to repeat myself :2thumbsup
Famous TinyOPDS server app just got a major update!
About a month ago I suddenly felt like revisiting my old TinyOPDS project a little program that, believe it or not, has been running almost flawlessly (well, almost!) for me and a few thousand other people for around 12 years. At first I only planned to tweak the HTTP server a bit, but I ended up practically rewriting the whole thing, about 80 percent of the code ;)
In short, for those who dont like reading long posts (even though this app is for people who do love reading): TinyOPDS lets you build your own personal "Project Gutenberg"-style library. Just download TinyOPDS, grab a full "Project Gutenberg" torrent (fb2 only), point TinyOPDS to the folder with the archives, start a scan, and in a few hours youll have your very own massive e-book collection.
Project page with detailed documentation and wiki (including English, Russian and Ukrainian): https://github.com/sensboston/tinyopds
It should work pretty much anywhere, Windows, Linux, or macOS (via Mono).
Small donations ($15) are warmly appreciated, though not required. Once I collect enough, I plan to buy an EV code-signing certificate so Windows will stop complaining about "unknown publisher". Covering that out of pocket just doesnt feel right.
If youd rather say thanks without spending money, thats fine too: create a GitHub account (takes only a few minutes), unsubscribe from notifications if you like, and give a star to my top repositories.
Enjoy!
Regards, your old friend SeNS aka sensboston
