COPS aka Calibre OPDS (and HTML) PHP Server

Why ?

COPS is a light alternative to Calibre content server / Calibre2OPDS.

Features

• Fully compliant OPDS catalog with Opensearch.
• Web browsable catalog accessible on every device (smartphone, tablet, e-ink eReader, ...).
• HTML5 / CSS3 interface with responsive design and client side rendering for speed.
• Multiple Calibre database support in a single COPS install.
• Epub metadata update like Calibre Content Server (enable it with $config['cops_update_epub-metadata']) : If you fixed the author name / a tag / the serie name of a book in Calibre, then the epub you'll download with COPS will contain the fix.
• Calibre custom columns.
• Facets in the OPDS feed to filter book list (the only OPDS clients supporting it are Mantano Reader and Bluefire for now).
• Multilanguage : English, French, German, Russian, Spanish, Catalan, Italian, Norwegian Bokmål, Chinese.
• ...
