NomadNet EPUB

Drop EPUBs in a folder; serve them as public NomadNet Micron pages.

Install

pip install nomadnet-epub
pip install nomadnet          # required for `serve`

From a git checkout:

python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
pip install nomadnet

Reticulum should already be configured (~/.reticulum). NomadNet runtime data lives under data_dir (default ./data/nomadnetwork).

Quick start

nomadnet-epub init          # writes nomadnet-epub.toml + epubs/
# edit nomadnet-epub.toml
cp book.epub epubs/
nomadnet-epub serve

serve converts EPUBs, syncs NomadNet config from your TOML, starts nomadnet --daemon, watches epubs/, and restarts NomadNet when books change.

One-shot convert (no daemon):

nomadnet-epub convert

Config

Everything lives in nomadnet-epub.toml (see nomadnet-epub.toml.example):

index_title = "Ben's Library"      # heading on index.mu
description = "Mesh EPUB reader"   # tagline under the heading
node_name = "bens-epub-library"    # NomadNet announce name

epubs = "./epubs"
data_dir = "./data/nomadnetwork"
words = 350
images = "none"   # or "files"

CLI flags override the file when passed (--index-title, --node-name, …).

Notes

• Book indexes use the EPUB table of contents; in-book links resolve to Micron pages.
• EPUB downloads are on each book index, not the root catalog.
• Browse from NomadNet / MeshChat / Sideband. No page auth is configured.
