kiwix-library is a console tool which allows to build library files for Kiwix. A library file is an XML flat file listing ZIM files with all the necessarz properties like (favicon, date, creator, description, indexpath, filepath, title, source/metalink, ...).
kiwix-library generated files are thought for two usages:
- Local library file for kiwix-serve
- Remote/portable library file for the Kiwix software, providing a list of downloadable content.
By the way, an intern library file is also managed an build directly by Kiwix, following the user behaviour (adding, removing new content)... and the format is exactly the same.
Technical details
kiwix-library is based on a kiwix::library class coded in C++ and using a simple/fast/protable XML/DOM XML library.
