Convert CBZ/CBR/Dir into Epub for e-reader devices (Kindle Devices, ...)
My goal is to make a simple, crossplatform, and fast tool to convert comics into epub.
Epub is now support by Amazon through SendToKindle, by Email or by using the App. So I've made it simple to support the size limit constraint of those services.
Installation
First ensure to have a working version of GO: Installation
Then install the last version of the tool:
go install github.com/celogeek/go-comic-converter@latest
To force install a specific version:
go install github.com/celogeek/go-comic-converter@TAG
# Ex: go install github.com/celogeek/go-comic-converter@v1.0.0
Add GOPATH to your PATH
export PATH=$(go env GOPATH)/bin:$PATH
Usage
Convert directory
Convert every ".jpg" file found in the input directory:
go-comic-converter --profile KS --input ~/Download/MyComic
By default it will output: ~/Download/MyComic.epub
Convert CBZ, ZIP, CBR, RAR, PDF
Convert every ".jpg" file found in the input directory:
go-comic-converter --profile KS --input ~/Download/MyComic.[CBZ,ZIP,CBR,RAR,PDF]
By default it will output: ~/Download/MyComic.epub
Convert with size limit
If you send your ePub through Amazon service, you have some size limitation:
- Email : 50Mb (including encoding, so 40Mb for RAW file)
- App : 50Mb
- Website: 200Mb
You can split your file using the "--limitmb MB" option:
go-comic-converter --profile KS --input ~/Download/MyComic.[CBZ,ZIP,CBR,RAR,PDF] --limitmb 200
If you have more than 1 file the output will be:
- ~/Download/MyComic PART_01.epub
- ~/Download/MyComic PART_02.epub
- ...
The ePub include as a first page:
- Title
- Part NUM / TOTAL
