Comicon
Comicon is a lightweight comic converter library between CBZ, PDF, EPUB, and MOBI that preserves metadata. Once Comicon has converted a comic, it is guaranteed that the reverse conversion will restore the original comic with all of its original metadata.
Usage
For a command line interface, please see Mandown.
import comicon
comicon.convert("comic.cbz", "comic.epub")
Installation
Amazon's Kindlegen is required if you want to convert to MOBI. See here for more information.
Comicon is available from PyPI:
pip install comicon
Supported conversions
| Format | Convert from? | Convert to? | Supports table of contents? |
|---|---|---|---|
| CBZ | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: |
| EPUB | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: |
| :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :x: | |
| MOBI | :x: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: |
Format discrepancies
- Formats that do not support a table of contents will encode them so that they are restored if converted back to a format that supports them.
- PDF does not support importing genre data due to a lack of library support. This may be worked around in the future.
Notes
Under the hood, Comicon converts each format into the Comicon Intermediate Representation (CIR) — more or less a strictly structured folder, which allows for many guarantees to be made for each input and output plugin. See comicon.cirtools for more information.
For new input and output formats to be added, they should be added in comicon.inputs or comicon.outputs respectively as a new module and in the __init__.py file(s).
