🏁 Getting Started

To download the source code you just need to type this in a bash:

matteopiffari@main:~$ git clone https://github.com/matteopiffari/PyImg2Epub

Install EbookLib:

matteopiffari@main:~$ pip install EbookLib

Setup the input directory (/chapters in the default config)

To make the script work the directory must be structured in this way:

chapters
├─── 001
│    ├─── 001.jpg
│    ├─── ...
│    └─── n.jpg
├─── 002
│    ├─── 001.jpg
│    ├─── ...
│    └─── n.jpg
├─── ...
└─── n
     ├─── 001.jpg
     ├─── ...
     └─── n.jpg

You can also find this structure inside the file /chapters/STRUCT.md

🎈 Usage

Before start you need to change some variables in the code:

• TITLE: the title of the book
• AUTHOR: the author of the book
• DESCRIPTION: the description or trama of the book
• OUTPUT_DIR (optional): the output directory where epub files will saved

After that you can run the script in this way:

matteopiffari@main:~$ cd PyImg2Epub
matteopiffari@main:~/PyImg2Epub$ python main.py

You will find the .epub files in the folder named output (or the one specified in the OUTPUT_DIR variable in the code)
