TinyOPDS server got a MAJOR update

[SeNS]

First, I tried to reincarnate my very old thread but dear "MobileRead" dismissed my post But this is OK I’m not too proud to repeat myself

Famous TinyOPDS server app just got a major update!

About a month ago I suddenly felt like revisiting my old TinyOPDS project — a little program that, believe it or not, has been running almost flawlessly (well, almost!) for me and a few thousand other people for around 12 years. At first I only planned to tweak the HTTP server a bit, but I ended up practically rewriting the whole thing, about 80 percent of the code

In short, for those who don’t like reading long posts (even though this app is for people who do love reading): TinyOPDS lets you build your own personal "Project Gutenberg"-style library. Just download TinyOPDS, grab a full "Project Gutenberg" torrent (fb2 only), point TinyOPDS to the folder with the archives, start a scan, and in a few hours you’ll have your very own massive e-book collection.

Project page with detailed documentation and wiki (including English, Russian and Ukrainian): https://github.com/sensboston/tinyopds

It should work pretty much anywhere, Windows, Linux, or macOS (via Mono).

Small donations ($1–5) are warmly appreciated, though not required. Once I collect enough, I plan to buy an EV code-signing certificate so Windows will stop complaining about "unknown publisher". Covering that out of pocket just doesn’t feel right.

If you’d rather say thanks without spending money, that’s fine too: create a GitHub account (takes only a few minutes), unsubscribe from notifications if you like, and give a star to my top repositories.

Enjoy!

Regards, your old friend SeNS aka sensboston

In the two weeks since the release of version 3.0, "TinyOPDS" has received a ton of updates and improvements:
- rare critical errors and a whole bunch of minor ones have been fixed,
- Polish translation has been added,
- interface and OPDS/web have been properly pluralized into Slavic languages,
(for both big thanks to @BeckyDP !)
- CLI for Mac has been fixed and properly tested (sorry, no GUI with mono, only wine)
- scanning speed has been further increased
- database size has been reduced by almost half
- also, the duplicate finder was significantly improved (this is important for the large libraries)

Current release version is 3.8, enjoy!

P.S. I opened a "Discussions" forum on GitHub so be my guest with new ideas!
