Basically what I need to do is:
  • Generate an EPUB from the command line

  • (This is the new part) Add to that cover the same information that gets added to the image in a default or generated cover.
This is part of an automated process so GUI solutions are not useful for me.

Any hints?

Thank you in advance.
look at the CLI (Comandline interface) in the online users guide.

ebook-meta has a way to set the cover into the DB (I think you want to populate the DB first, then call the convert)
