Fastest epub reader.
Why
Reading epub in PC is pain as hell. I have tried a lot tool like calibre epubreader,Mac books, MarginNote for quick and good view experience. However, some of the pifalls always exist in one or another.
- Loading is super slow for big epub because of splitted files.
- No smooth scrolling.
I think most of the epub reader focus too much on the layout, instread of contents. So I wonder. I have a web browser like Chrome which is a natural epub reader, and it's fast enough. The basic idea is converting epub to a big html. Simple but effective.
Tested platform
- Mac
- Windows
Usage
pip install epub2html
epub2html abc.epub
will open your converted epub html file in browser .
Open with double click like normal file (mac)
use automator, generate the app, create a Run shell script module
source ~/.bash_profile
/usr/local/bin/epub2html "$1"
check which epub2html in your bash to make sure it's the right path.
save it,
link the file with this app, You are good to go.
Dev
python3 -m venv --clear .p3env
source .p3env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
Last
I won't follow the standard to parse epub, since it's way too complicated. If some epub is not openable.Please make a PR ,or,sobmit the epub to the issues, I would fix it as soon as I can.
