Ebook reader crashes Nextcloud 17

[Wotisrv]

When I download and enable ebook reader I get the internal error screen.

Removing the files_reader directory fixes the problem.

Nextcloud 17.0.0
Php 7.3.10
Fedora 30 Server Edition

Same here, but just disabling the app with php occ app:disable files_reader returns the nextcloud back to work.

• Nextcloud 17.0.0
• PHP 7.2.24
• Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS

I have contacted @Yetangitu about this via email to get an update.

Is there something happening here?

The reader still uses OCP\Config which has been removed...
I am trying to get a hold of the Nextcloud API and it is not as trivial as things look like.
The API documentation is probably correct but hard to get into when it's all new. And not all things described are necessarily the most recent state of things (yet).

Although this is a small fix ... there is a huge difference between the API when the reader was build and the current APIs.. Since V15 old stuff is getting removed ==> breaking things that are not updated.
A lot of developpers gave up on rewriting most of their application to accomodate to the new API.. between V11 - V16.

I forked the files_reader app and will publish a new release to the App Store soon:
