how to build a Push website using calibre

kindleren · 01-31-2012, 04:21 AM

hey, I'm a new calibre user.Now ,i want to build a website that can push content to people's kindle.I've got some problems,i need help.
I send mail (E-mail attachments format is xml) to kindle,and the content is garbled on kindle.So i need use calibre's Format conversion function,conversion XML format into mobi format or other format,then mail it to kindle,I hope this kind of transformation should be automatic,I mean if I can use some way to make calibre service for my website. maybe there is some api that can be used.

I want to know ,how should I do ?

my website is based on php+apache+linux.

thanks in advance.

I don't know whether I express it clearly.
For example:
when users access to my web site,subscribe a document,my website can push the document to user's kindle.so website need conversion the document's format into mobi format.

I want to know ,how could I do ?

my website is based on php+apache+linux.

thanks in advance.

Mr theducks,I'm so glad that you reply me.But I'm so sorry,I can not understand it.You say I can use CLI.But how could my php code call the CLI.
I hope you can explain it more detail.

Thank you very much.

About ten seconds of using Google yielded this. If not that, use something similar.
