gollark: Fortunately, EPUB is a structured format, and the library means the amount of XML I touch is reduced.
gollark: I have metadata done, and I found a good library for reading chapters (may require XHTML parsing, oh bee).
gollark: Well, it reads the metadata, reads each chapter, and dumps them into a SQLite FTS table.
gollark: Not really. I mean, sort of yes, but at that point it would be very slow. My indexer thing will index stuff *once* then search using that.
gollark: `ripgrep` is also performant, however I need to search compressed archives.
