Flask

first version of lib (super super prototype)

http://37.139.6.124:8080/


with first API setup:

http://37.139.6.124:8080/api/books

{
  "books": [
    {
      "author": "Jan Tschichold", 
      "file": "The_Form_of_the_Book___Essays_on_the_Moral_-_Jan_Tschichold.pdf", 
      "id": 1, 
      "title": "The Form of the Book"
    }
  ]
}

Code on the git:

Long To Do List (obviously)

  • much more properties for books
    • multiple authors?
    • description
    • date uploaded?
    • ISBN
    • MD5 to link books (more stable than db ID)
    • Filetype (PDf, mobi, epub)
    • Publisher
    • Tags
    • Categories? (also important for infrastructure)
  • Keep SQLite or python shelve?
  • function to make stacks
  • delete books from DB?
  • do we need users? (→ also conceptional question)
  • Interface, Interface, Interface
    • search, links, categories, shelfs/stacks
  • API
    • make all that above accessible via RESTful API
    • add POST / PUT / DELETE (not sure how it works yet)
