turns a collection of documents into a browsable ZIM file

Project description

Nautilus

CodeFactor License: GPL v3 PyPI version shields.io

nautilus turns a collection of documents into a browsable ZIM file.

It downloads the video (webm or mp4 format – optionnaly recompress them in lower-quality, smaller size), the thumbnails, the subtitles and the authors' profile pictures ; then, it create a static HTML files folder of it before creating a ZIM off of it.

Preparing the archive

To be used with nautilus, your archive should be a ZIP file.

  • it doesn't need to be structured, but it can.
  • it doesn't need to be compressed. It's usually recommended not to.
  • it should contain a collection.json file, but not required (see bellow).
  • it should only contain to-be-included files. No filtering is done.
  • Audio and video files should be in ogg format with .ogg/.ogv extension to be supported on all platform (mp3/mp4 would work only on platform with native support).
cd content/path
zip -r -0 -T ../content_name.zip *

JSON collection file

Either inside the archive ZIP as /collection.json or elsewhere, specified via --collection mycollection.json, you must supply a JSON file describing your content.

The user-interface only gives access to files referenced properly in the collection.

At the moment, the JSON files needs to provide the following fields for each item in an Array:

[
    {
        "title": "...",
        "description": "...",
        "authors": "...",
        "files": ["relative/path/to/file"]
     }
]

About page

Either inside the archive ZIP as /about.html or elsewhere, specified via --about myabout.html, you may supply an about page in HTML format. It will be displayed in a modal popup and will include at its bottom your secondary-logo if provided.

  • Use only content tags (no <html /> nor <head /> nor <script /> etc)
  • Use inline styling if required but no styling is recommended.
  • Include one logo inline if required.

Requirements

  • zimwriterfs for ZIM file packaging. Use --no-zim to skip this step.
  • wget and unzip to install JS dependencies. See get_js_deps.sh if you want to do it manually.
  • wget is used to download archive files as well.
  • handlebars is used to compile JS templates

Installation

nautilus is a python program. if you are not using the docker image, you are advised to use it in a virtualenv. See requirements.txt for the list of python dependencies.
