Newsstand shelf JSON

To use Newsstand and download books in Baker 4.0 you need to put a JSON file on your server containing the list of the issues you want to make available.

The JSON file URL is specified in Constants.h in the constant NEWSSTAND_MANIFEST_URL.

The format of the JSON is as follows:

[
  {
    "name": "a-study-in-scarlet",
    "title": "A Study in Scarlet",
    "info": "The original masterpiece by Sir A. Conan Doyle",
    "date": "1887-10-10 10:10:10",
    "cover": "http://bakerframework.com/newsstand-books/a-study-in-scarlet.png",
    "url": "http://bakerframework.com/newsstand-books/a-study-in-scarlet.hpub"
  },
  {
    "name": "a-study-in-green",
    "title": "A Study in Green",
    "info": "An exciting remake of the original, with added mint!",
    "date": "2010-10-10 10:10:10",
    "cover": "http://bakerframework.com/newsstand-books/a-study-in-green.png",
    "url": "http://bakerframework.com/newsstand-books/a-study-in-green.hpub"
  },
  
  ...
  
]

Note that, when Newsstand is enabled, Baker will not display any of the bundled books. In fact, you can delete the books folder from the Xcode project entirely.
