`@ztimson/zim-utils` is a native, dependency-light toolkit for working with [ZIM](https://wiki.openzim.org/wiki/ZIM_file_format) archives and the [Kiwix](https://kiwix.org/) catalog in Node.js
### Demo
It comes with the following helpers:
Website: https://git.zakscode.com
- **`ZimManager`** — Local library manager: listing, updating/downloading, and running searches accross the entire library
- **`ZimReader`** — A `.zim` file reader for reading pages, metadata and running searches
- **Catalog** (`zimCatalog`/`zimCatalogInfo`) — Helper functions to search the Kiwix OPDS catalog

## Usage
### ZimManager
`ZimManager` owns a directory of `.zim` files and handles everything from downloading to cross-archive search.
```js
import {ZimManager} from '@ztimson/zim-utils';
const manager = new ZimManager('./zims'); // optional 2nd arg: custom catalog URL
// Search the Kiwix catalog & download the top hit
const [entry] = await manager.catalog('wikipedia,medicine');
await manager.download(entry.href);
// List local archives with their parsed metadata
const local = await manager.list();
// [{file: './zims/wikipedia_en_medicine.zim', meta: {name, date, title}}, ...]
// Check a single file for updates without downloading
const status = await manager.isOutdated(local[0].file);
// Update every local ZIM that has a newer catalog version
await manager.updateAll({force: false});
// Fuzzy-search titles across ALL local archives at once
const hits = await manager.search('diabetes treatment', {limit: 10});
// Open a reader by file path OR by catalog name
const reader = await manager.open('wikipedia_en_medicine');
const page = await reader.readPage('A/Diabetes');
await reader.close();
```
### ZimReader
Everything `ZimManager` does to a single archive is just a thin wrapper around `ZimReader`. Use it directly when you don't need a whole managed library:
```js
import {ZimReader} from '@ztimson/zim-utils';
const reader = await new ZimReader('./zims/wikipedia_en_medicine.zim').open();
// Metadata (what manager.#readMeta / isOutdated rely on)
const name = await reader.metadata('Name');
const date = await reader.metadata('Date');
const title = await reader.metadata('Title');
// Landing page
const home = await reader.mainPage();
// Direct page lookup by URL
const page = await reader.readPage('A/Diabetes');
console.log(page.mimetype, page.data.toString('utf8'));
// Fuzzy title search within just this archive (what manager.search fans out over)
const results = await reader.search('diabetes,insulin', {limit: 20, htmlOnly: true});
await reader.close();
```
### Catalog
`ZimManager.catalog()` and its update checks are backed directly by these two functions:
```js
import {zimCatalog, zimCatalogInfo, CATALOG_URL} from '@ztimson/zim-utils';
// Ranked search across the Kiwix catalog (comma-separated terms, like ZimReader.search)
const results = await zimCatalog('history,rome', {lang: 'eng', count: 20, url: CATALOG_URL});
// Exact lookup by catalog `name`, used to check if a local copy is outdated
const entry = await zimCatalogInfo('wikipedia_en_medicine');
```
