Getting the TOC from an ePub
For something I am trying with the Kobo driver, I need to retrieve the TOC from ePubs. I first look at this earlier in the year and have implemented something using calibre.ebooks.oeb.iterator. It works, but I am wondering if there is another way.

What I need is the TOC entry with the title and the path for the link. Is there a best way to get this?

Look at metadata/epub.py that will show you how to get the parsed OPF from an epub easily. IIRC the opf object has a .toc attribute you can use to access the toc.
