Reader API

The Reader API provides a REST interface to list and create documents in your Reader Library. Also, there is a related Readwise API that offers a way to work with your books and highlights.

I will describe these APIs, and include examples for JavaScript, Python, and Swift. Also, I will include Postman collections with requests for checking out the API functions on your Reader Library.

Shortcuts

Since Shortcuts has actions that can invoke REST APIs, I will include shortcut examples that use the Reader API along with Actions for Obsidian to demonstrate how you can integrate Reader with with your Obsidian notes.

Swift

I will develop a Swift application for macOS and iOS with SwiftUI user interface and SwiftData database that uses the Reader API.

This will provide an interesting way to explore various Swift features while demonstrating how it can be applied to integrating Reader with Obsidian.
