REQUIREMENTS

• libxml2 and libxslt for Nokogiri gem

CHANGELOG

0.1.2

• Fix a bug that Item#read couldn't read file when href is percent-encoded(Thanks, gambhiro!)

0.1.1

• Parse package@prefix and attach it as Package#prefix
• Manifest::Item#iri wes removed. It have existed for files in unzipped epub books but now EPUB Parser retrieves files from zip archive directly. #href now returns Addressable::URI object.
• Metadata::Link#iri: ditto.
• Guide::Reference#iri: ditto.

TODOS

• Vocabulary Association Mechanisms
• Implementing navigation document and so on
• Fixed Layout
• Digital Signature
• Using SAX on parsing
• Extracting and organizing common behavior from some classes to modules
• Abstraction of XML parser(making it possible to use REXML, standard bundled XML library of Ruby)

DONE

• Using zip library instead of unzip command, which has security issue
• Modify methods around fallback to see bindings element in the package
