## Installation

### Library

Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
learner = "0.1"
```

### CLI Tool

```bash
cargo install learnerd
```

## Usage

### Library Usage

```rust
use learner::{Paper, Database};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Initialize database
    let db = Database::open("papers.db").await?;
    
    // Add papers from various sources
    let paper = Paper::new("https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.07041").await?;
    paper.save(&db).await?;
    
    let paper = Paper::new("10.1145/1327452.1327492").await?;  // From DOI
    paper.save(&db).await?;
    
    let paper = Paper::new("2023/123").await?;  // From IACR
    paper.save(&db).await?;
    
    Ok(())
}
```

### CLI Usage

```bash
# Initialize a new database
learnerd init

# Add a paper (auto-detects source)
learnerd add 2301.07041
learnerd add "https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.07041"
learnerd add "10.1145/1327452.1327492"

# Retrieve a paper
learnerd get arxiv 2301.07041

# Search papers
learnerd search "neural networks"

# Verbose output for debugging
learnerd -v add 2301.07041

# Clean up database (with confirmation)
learnerd clean
```

## Project Structure

The project consists of two main components:

1. `learner` - Core library providing:
   - Paper metadata extraction
   - Database management
   - Source-specific clients (arXiv, IACR, DOI)
   - Error handling

2. `learnerd` - CLI application offering:
   - User-friendly interface
   - Interactive confirmations
   - Colored output
   - Logging and debugging capabilities
