Handle .mobi files with ease.

Introduction

This package was born out of frustration. There didn't seem to be a decent open source .mobi reader out there for PHP, so I wanted to create my own to give back to the community.

Installation

composer require choccybiccy/mobi

Usage

Reading .mobi files

use Choccybiccy;

$mobi = new Mobi\Reader('sherlock.mobi');

echo $mobi->getTitle(); # The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Doyle
echo $mobi->getAuthor(); # Doyle, Arthur Conan, Sir, 1859-1930

.mobi headers

use Choccybiccy;

$mobi = new Mobi\Reader('sherlock.mobi');

$palmDb = $mobi->getPalmDbHeader();
$palmDoc = $mobi->getPalmDocHeader();
$mobi = $mobi->getMobiHeader();
$exth = $mobi->getExthHeader();

EXTH records

echo $exth->getRecordByType(Mobi\Header\ExthHeader::TYPE_AUTHOR); # Doyle, Arthur Conan, Sir, 1859-1930
echo $exth->getRecordByType(Mobi\Header\ExthHeader::TYPE_PUBLISHER); # Mobipocket (an Amazon.com company)

Testing

./vendor/bin/phpunit

Todo

• Parse .mobi files
• More tests
• EXTH record type constants
• Helper methods to get common attributes (title, author etc)
