Book Reader
Requested Features
-
Ability to work with non-archive books (which means the bookreader should not expect data in any format)
-
Ability to embed into any webpage with ease
- Possibility of keeping multiple books in the same page (no global state)
To make is it easier to work with other sources, the bookreader can expect a book interface with the following functions from the client.
getPageCount()
getPage(index)
getPageWidth(index)
getPageHeight(index)
The book reader can have optional functionality which is enabled only when the book implementation has the required method defined.
For example, bookmarks functionality can be enabled only when the book interface has getBookmarks method defined.
getBookmarks(index)
Typical usage:
<script src="/js/bookreader.js" type="text/javascript"/>
<script src="/js/archivebook.js" type="text/javascript"/>
<div id="book1"></div>
<script>
document.onload = function() {
var b = bookreader("book1", ArchiveBook("tomsayer"));
b.showPage(42);
}
</script>
