Image viewer for ebook.

SpRead

SpRead is a image viewer for ebook that is composed non-DRM PDF or standard image format. It can read archive files that are included images. It is written in C++ using FLTK. So, SpRead can run on Windows, OS X and *NIX.

Features

• Supports ZIP, TAR, 7Z, CAB, RAR, LHA and LZH, and some compression format
• Supports most major common popular image format(JPEG, PNG, WebP)
• Supports PDF format
• Reads directories which are included images
• Spread view mode (double page mode)
• Both left-to-right and right-to-left reading modes
• Auto control of spread view mode
• Prefetch of images

Requirement

• C++ Compiler which supports C++11 or above
• libarchive >= 3.1.2
• FLTK 1.x
• Poppler >= 0.41 (optional)
• libwebp (optional)

Build Instructions

If you want to add PDF, WebP support, you will add macro definition of SUPPORT_PDF, SUPPORT_WEBP, respectively.

*NIX

1. $ cd src
2. $ make

Windows

FLTK1.3.x

FLTK builds easy on Windows using MSVC. It includes CMakeLists.txt and you can create .sln file using cmake build system. It can compile using FLTK built-in JPEG, PNG and zlib library.

libarchive

See https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/wiki/BuildInstructions#Building_on_Windows

libarchive builds easy on Windows using MSVC. libarchive depends on some libraries, but there are pre-compiled binaries which are distributed from GnuWin(http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/).

Poppler

SpRead uses Poppler to read and rendering PDF. Poppler is difficult to build on Windows. Poppler depends on many libraries as follows.

• zlib
• libpng
  • zlib
• freetype
  • harfbuzz
  • bzip2
  • zlib
  • libpng
• openjpeg
  • libpng
  • zlib
  • lcms2
• lcms2
• cairo
  • pixman
  • libpng
  • zlib
  • see cairo/README.win32
• iconv
  • The latest iconv no longer supports nmake and doesn't have CMakeLists. You should install Cygwin and MinGW.
  • see libiconv/README.woe32
• Qt4 and Qt5 (if you want to use Qt wrapper library.)

In SpRead using Poppler, Poppler building requires only zlib, libpng, freetype, openjpeg, lcms2 and iconv. Those libraries are easily compiled using MSVC and CMake, or pre-compiled binaries are exist.

Note: If you use binaries which are written in C++ and compile using MinGW, you should compile all dependent libraries and SpRead using MinGW. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

Hacks

How to support new image format

• WebPFile.cpp and WebPFile.hpp are samples.

1. Creates class which inherits ImageFile.
2. New class must implement five methods at least below.
   • const std::string &path() const;
   • BasicImage *loadImage(int index);
   • bool isOpenable(const std::string&);
   • bool open(const std::string&, const RawData&, std::vector<ImageItem*>&);
   • const StringVec &enum_exts();
   • These methods must be thread-safe.
   • path method returnes a file path.
   • loadImage method returns a raw image.
   • isOpenable method decides whether to open given file name.
   • open method adds entry to argument vector.
   • enum_exts method returns the extensions that support by its class.
3. Adds three functors(isOpenable, open, enum_exts) to the either vectors of imgs(image such as jpeg, png), docs(document such as pdf), archs(archive such as zip).
4. Finally, edits Makefile.
