A Go native implementation for ZIM files. See http://akhenakh.github.io/gozim
ZIM files are used mainly as offline wikipedia copies.
See http://openzim.org/wiki/ZIM_file_format and http://openzim.org/wiki/ZIM_File_Example
Wikipedia/Wikinews/... ZIMs can be downloaded from there http://download.kiwix.org/zim/
On Ubuntu/Debian youn need those packages to compile gozim
apt-get install git liblzma-dev mercurial build-essential
For the indexer bleve to work properly it's recommended that you use leveldb as storage.
go get -u -v -tags all github.com/blevesearch/bleve/...
Gozim http server is using go.rice to embed html/css in the binary install the rice command
go get github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice
go get github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice/rice
go install github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice
go install github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice/rice
Get and build the gozim executables
go get github.com/akhenakh/gozim/... cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/akhenakh/gozim go build github.com/akhenakh/gozim/cmd/gozimhttpd go build github.com/akhenakh/gozim/cmd/gozimindex
After build gozimhttpd command run to embed the files:
rice append --exec gozimhttpd
On OSX:
CGO_CFLAGS=`pkg-config --cflags liblzma` go build
For easy cross-compilation a !cgo build version uses a pure go library for lzma parsing.
The pure go library is around ~2.5x slower in benchmarks so compile on your target OS if
performance is important.
Optionally, build an index file: gozimindex -path=yourzimfile.zim -index=yourzimfile.idx
Start the gozim server: gozimhttpd -path=yourzimfile.zim [-index=yourzimfile.idx]
