How to specify command line option for epub format

kiklop74 · 02-12-2009, 05:54 PM

I assume feeds2epub uses internaly html2epub to do the actual conversion. Therefore to control the output in a specific way we would need to pass some command line options. My question is how to do that from the recipe?

html2epub_options does not permit to put option like --linearize-tables

If I do that I receive an error

Code:

    html2epub_options = '--linearize-tables'

Is there a way to do this?

html2epub = 'linearize_tables = True'

I decide not to make a new thread and just asking here first, since it seems relevent to the original quesiton.

I want to change the base font size for epub format. How do I do that in recipe? I though it would be

Code:

    html2epub_options = 'base-font-size = 14'

but it isn't. I tried some other code for an hour and now out of idea.

Use underscores instead of hyphens

Still not working for some reason. Did I do it right?

Code:

html2epub_options = 'base_font_size = 14'

I also tried

Code:

html2epub = 'base_font_size = 14'

as well. It doesn't work either.

kiklop74 · 03-31-2009, 04:32 PM

should be:

Code:

html2epub = 'base_font_size="14pt"'

Hypernova · 03-31-2009, 05:22 PM

Still doesn't work. Here's the full recipe:

Code:

from calibre.web.feeds.news import BasicNewsRecipe
class FanFiction(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'FanFiction'
    oldest_article = 10000
    max_articles_per_feed = 10
    use_embedded_content  = False
    remove_javascript     = True
    no_stylesheets        = True
    keep_only_tags     = [dict(name='div', attrs={'id':'storytext'})]

    html2epub = 'base_font_size="14pt"'
    
    feeds          = [(u'Spiral', u'http://www.fanfiction.net/atom/l/1702/10/0/1/1/0/9281/9284/2/0/')]

Did I do something wrong?

html2epub_options

Hypernova · 03-31-2009, 06:30 PM

Code:

from calibre.web.feeds.news import BasicNewsRecipe
class FanFiction(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'FanFiction'
    oldest_article = 10000
    max_articles_per_feed = 10
    use_embedded_content  = False
    remove_javascript     = True
    no_stylesheets        = True
    keep_only_tags     = [dict(name='div', attrs={'id':'storytext'})]

    html2epub_options = 'base_font_size="14pt"'
    
    feeds          = [(u'Spiral', u'http://www.fanfiction.net/atom/l/1702/10/0/1/1/0/9281/9284/2/0/')]

doesn't work either. BTW, the conversion through GUI interface has no problem.

kovidgoyal · 03-31-2009, 06:52 PM

my bad the option name is base_font_size2

Hypernova · 03-31-2009, 11:33 PM

That does it, thank you!

Code:

from calibre.web.feeds.news import BasicNewsRecipe
class FanFiction(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'FanFiction'
    oldest_article = 10000
    max_articles_per_feed = 10
    use_embedded_content  = False
    remove_javascript     = True
    no_stylesheets        = True
    keep_only_tags     = [dict(name='div', attrs={'id':'storytext'})]

    html2epub_options = 'base_font_size2=14'
    
    feeds          = [(u'Spiral', u'http://www.fanfiction.net/atom/l/1702/10/0/1/1/0/9281/9284/2/0/')]

It would be nice if you could set a page in documentation specifying all possible options recipe writer can pass to html2epub or html2lrf.

I will the problem is that both html2lrf and html2epub options are going to go in the new conversion system. Once that is in place, the documentation will be written for it.

Hi, I'd like to apply the --linearize-tables CLI option on a scheduled news recipe. It works perfectly if I run it on the command line, but I'd like to run this via the calibre scheduler.

I tried both (added into the recipe):
html2epub_options = 'linearize_tables = True'
and
html2epub = 'linearize_tables = True'
... but no effect.

What did I wrong?

conversion_options = {'linearize_tables':True}
