Subject: Programmatic fetching books from Gutenberg
To:
gutvol-p@lists.pglaf.orgI made a ebook reader
(here)
http://code.google.com/p/bookjar/downloads/list
and i'd like to search and download Gutenberg books. I already have a searcher prototype using LuceneSail a library that uses Lucene to index rdf documents and only indexing what i want from the catalog.rdf.zip.
Now i'd like to know how from the url inside the catalog i can fetch the book itself, and what are the variants for the formats.
A example query result:
author: Shakespeare, William, 1564-1616
url:
http://www.gutenberg.org/feeds/catalog.rdf#etext1802
title: King Henry VIII
So, i like to know how from the etext1802 number can i get a working url to download the book, and how to construct variants for each format.
Thank you in advance.
