OPDS functionality seems to have stopped #105

Closed gbnewby closed 11 months ago

gbnewby commented 12 months ago

We have a few hooks in gutenbergsite for OPDS, and it's evident in the autocat3 code.

Previously we advertised http://m.gutenberg.org/ebooks/?format=opds but https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/?format=opds should work as well.

Does it look like this is recoverable? We have a small but doughty fan base that sends messages to the PG helpdesk inbox when OPDS is unavailable. If we add this, I'd like to get the recommended link for the "offline catalogs" page. If it's permanently lost, then I could put a note there as well.

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/search.opds/

just add '.opds' to the url

I doubt the ?format=opds thing ever worked unless it was implemented in htaccess

Works great. Thank-you!!

I recommend an update to your information pages on this. Searching for "Gutenberg opds" returns the URL "https://m.gutenberg.org/?format=opds" as the top response, and one page that mentions OPDS and doesn't have a link. You may find you have more users for the protocol if it's easier to find.

Thanks for this, Eric. Thanks to Kurt for spotting the issue.

I've added mention of OPDS here: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/offline_catalogs.html

I think it's ok to close this issue now.
