COPS stands for Calibre OPDS (and HTML) Php Server.
|
||
|
||
COPS output is valid the unofficial OPDS validator :
|
||
http://opds-validator.appspot.com/
|
||
|
||
= Why ? =
|
||
|
||
In my opinion Calibre is a marvelous tool but is too big and has too much
|
||
dependencies to be used for its content server.
|
||
|
||
That's the main reason why I coded this OPDS server. I needed a simple
|
||
tool to be installed on a small server (Seagate Dockstar in my case).
|
||
|
||
I initially thought of Calibre2OPDS but as it generate static file no
|
||
search was possible.
|
||
|
||
Later I added an simple HTML catalog that should be usable on my Kobo.
|
||
|
||
So COPS's main advantages are :
|
||
* No need for many dependencies.
|
||
* No need for a lot of CPU or RAM.
|
||
* Not much code.
|
||
* Search is available.
|
||
* With Dropbox / owncloud it's very easy to have an up to date OPDS server.
|
||
* It was fun to code.
|
||
|
||
If you want to use the OPDS feed don't forget to specify feed.php at the end of your URL.

= Prerequisites =
|
||
|
||
1. PHP 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 or hhvm with GD image processing, Libxml, Json & SQLite3 support.
|
||
2. A web server with PHP support. I only tested with various version of Nginx.
|
||
Other people reported it working with Apache and Cherokee. You can also use PHP
|
||
embedded server (https://github.com/seblucas/cops/wiki/Howto---PhpEmbeddedServer)
|
||
3. The path to a calibre library (metadata.db, format, & cover files).
|
||
|
||
On any Debian base Linux you can use :
|
||
aptitude install php5-gd php5-sqlite php5-json
|
||
|
||
On Centos you may have to add :
|
||
yum install php-xml
|
||
|
||
= Install =
|
||
|
||
1. Extract the zip file to a folder in web space (visible to the web server).
|
||
2. If you're doing a first-time install, copy config_local.php.example to config_local.php
|
||
3. Edit config_local.php to match your config.
|
||
4. If needed add other configuration item from config_default.php
|
||
|
||
If you choose to put your Calibre directory inside your web directory then you
|
||
will have to edit /etc/nginx/mime.types to add this line :
|
||
application/epub+zip epub;
|
||
