Installation

Install the package from PyPI:

pip3 install mandown

Or, to build from source:

Mandown depends on poetry for building.

git clone https://github.com/potatoeggy/mandown.git
poetry install
poetry build
pip3 install dist/mandown*.whl

Usage

mandown download <URL>

To convert the download contents to CBZ/EPUB, append the --convert option. To apply image processing to the downloaded images, append the --process option.

mandown download <URL> --convert epub --process rotate_double_pages

To convert an existing folder without downloading anything except metadata (like a stripped-down version of https://github.com/ciromattia/kcc), use the convert command.

mandown convert <FORMAT> <PATH_TO_FOLDER>

Run mandown --help for more info.
