bibliothecula License No Maintenance Intended

bibliothēcula f (genitive bibliothēculae); first declension (Late Latin)

  • small library
  • small collection of books
  • document database with tags and full-text-search, in a simple and clean sqlite3 schema

Organise documents with tags and other metadata with the option of storing multiple files per document.

See the database schema and the documentation.

Uses

  • Organise journal articles for bibliographies
  • Organise e-books
  • Store plain text notes with automatic full-text search and back-reference indexing (i.e. a Zettelkasten)

Tooling

This repository has three small tools for this schema:

  • a virtual FUSE filesystem written in Rust.

  • an HTTP GUI written in python3 using django.

  • a GTK3 UI in Rust that was written early and isn't functional.

  • an interactive python shell, bibl-shell.py, with convenient types and methods for working with your database:

    % ./bibl-shell.py --help
    usage: bibl-shell.py [-h] [-i {ipython3,python3}] [--autocommit] [-v]
                         [--no-startup]
                         db_name
    
    Python shell with convenient methods and objects for an sqlite3
    database with the bibliothecula schema. Licensed GPL-3.0-or-later
    
    positional arguments:
      db_name               sqlite3 database to use.
    
    optional arguments:
      -h, --help            show this help message and exit
      -i {ipython3,python3}, --interpreter {ipython3,python3}
                            interpreter to use.
      --autocommit          Autocommit on every statement. If false, you'd have to
                            remember to commit on your own before you close the
                            connection.
      -v, --verbose         Show SQL etc actions taken.
      --no-startup          When using plain Python, ignore the PYTHONSTARTUP
                            environment variable and ~/.pythonrc.py script.
