Markdown book template
Prerequisites
Note that epubcheck requires the jre and the shell script wrapper epubcheck-shell requires bash.
Installation
You can install globally using npm:
npm install -g typepress-cli
Quick Start
Provided you have all the prerequisite software installed correctly you can run:
git clone https://github.com/freeformsystems/typepress-cli.git
cd typepress-cli && npm install && ./bin/tp build
All generated files are placed in the build
directory.
Test
Run the tests with npm test
.
Preview
To preview the generated ebooks you can use calibre.
You can preview .mobi files using calibre; OSX users may prefer to use kindleformac. If you use kindleformac then drag the .mobi file onto the application icon in the dock to preview the generated book as the application does not easily allow previewing of .mobi files not downloaded from the amazon store.
