hs-books's Introduction

FaaS web app for listing .epub books in a directory

This Haskell program extracts meta info and cover images, creates thumbnails of those and sends a JSON response to the client, which parses and displays it.

Install

  • Serve the html directory with your web server and enable CGI
  • Make html readable by the web server and make html/media/covers writeable. There is a script for doing both of those things on Debian:
./scripts/set-permissions-debian.sh
  • Compile the program and copy the binary to html/app.cgi
./scripts/build-and-install.sh

Design

There is no database, since any modifications should also be present in the epub files. Instead, a caching system is used.

Ideas for future

  • Rewrite frontend in React? Current code is a poor man's version
  • Modernize FaaS technology?
  • Docker: use https://hub.docker.com/r/fpco/stack-build
  • Buttons for forcing reloads
  • Button for clearing search field
  • PDF support (tricky)
