Hello, how do I make my program read "books". Formats (fb2, djvu, and others...)

HI,
DroidScript can read files, but these "books" have their own internal structure within the files.
For example FB2 (frequently ZIP'd) uses xml to contain footnotes, images, text formatting, Unicode, etc.
AFAIK there's nothing built into DS. There may be plugins (or you could write them, or have them written).
Another possibility is just to send an intent to another app (ereader) to open the book 
(then the user reads the book in that app).
Regards, ah

HI,
DroidScript 2.11 is in Beta testing and includes " Added support for NodeJS scripts and modules"
You could search the web for Nodejs FB2 to see if anyone has written a tool for reading FB2's etc.

HI,
That looks like a project in Java (my Russian is very little) which is not simple to integrate.
Also it says ""it only displays first few pages of book. Please purchase full version ..."
Probably easier would be one of these

HI,

I've found a thread "Implement nodejs module into droidscript" in the Premium group

which references a thread "Converting Node.js Plugins to DroidScript Plugins" in the Beta group 

DroidScript 2.11 is in beta testing and includes  " Added support for NodeJS scripts and modules"

Regards, ah
