README

Source Library v2

A Next.js application for digitizing and translating historical texts. Built for the Embassy of the Free Mind.

Stack

  • Framework: Next.js 14 (App Router)
  • Database: MongoDB Atlas
  • AI: Google Gemini for OCR and Translation
  • Storage: Vercel Blob for images
  • Deployment: Vercel

Getting Started

npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000

Architecture

Image System

All page images go through /api/image for consistent sizing and cropping:

Tier Size Quality Use Case
Thumbnail 400px 70% Grid views, page navigation
Display 1200px 80% Main reading view
Full 2400px 90% Magnifier, fullscreen

Split Pages

Books with two-page spreads can be split. Each page stores:

  • crop.xStart and crop.xEnd (0-1000 scale)
  • cropped_photo (optional pre-generated Vercel Blob URL)

Cropping happens on-demand via Sharp. OCR automatically crops inline and saves the result for future use.

Processing Pipeline

  1. Import - Upload images or import from Internet Archive
  2. Split - Detect and split two-page spreads (ML or manual)
  3. OCR - Extract text using Gemini Vision
  4. Translate - Translate to English using Gemini
  5. Summarize - Generate summaries and key themes
