glowpub's Introduction

A Glowfic-To-Epub converter

Using this software requires Rust.

To process a specific post clone this repo and, from its directory, run:

cargo run -- post <post-id>

This will download the entire thread and cache it locally, along with all images. It'll then generate a single html file in /books/html/<post-id>.html, and an epub file in /books/epub/<post-id>.epub.

To process an entire board/continuity:

cargo run -- board <board-id>

For example, if you want to download all of planecrash:

cargo run -- board 215

Additional options

Combine these by chaining them after the command.
cargo run -- board 215 --use-cache --jpeg --text-to-speech --flatten-details=mixed --single-file

--use-cache: re-use already cached items.
--jpeg: convert images in epubs to jpeg, can lead to significantly smaller file sizes.
--text-to-speech: change the output in a way that may be more comfortable for text-to-speech.
--flatten-details: flatten details tags (see example below). Valid values are --flatten-details=none (default), --flatten-details=all, --flatten-details=mixed. mixed flattens details in epubs only.
--single-file: if downloading a board/continuity, output the entire board in a single epub file.

With flatten-details enabled this:

Becomes more or less:

Note that you can't close the latter, so the inherent spoiler protection is compromised, this is mostly useful for ereaders that have trouble with tags.

Alternative `planecrash` ordering

An ordering suggested by @rlpowell in #6 can be found here or in their fork.

// This is my (Robin Lee Powell)'s best guess as to the correct reading order, given that I haven't
// actually read most of it yet, and given that in several places the text itself tells you to jump
// out to a subthread and come back, which makes "reading order" a bit of a miss anyway.
pub const ITEMS: [(&str, u64); 25] = [

Fix for requiring Rust nightly build

Just a heads-up that you're using a feature that doesn't seem to be on the Rust mainline. Up to you whether you want to refactor to not use it, add a warning, or do nothing :)
