Dutch Weekly Newspaper "De Groene Amsterdammer" Recipe

realbase · 03-21-2013, 08:45 PM

This is the Recipe I'd built for "De Groene Amsterdammer" (for readers with a subscription only). They publish their new edition each wednesday-evening. I set mine to thursday-morning. Have fun with it!

Please leave a comment if you use it!

You should not call ebook-convert like that, it wont work if ebook-convert is not in the path. If you want to run a conversion, do it like this

from calibre.ebooks.conversion.cli import main
main(['ebook-convert', input_file, output_file])

The recipe above works in Calibre.
Mine version is just a trial and error of combining some code.

But how do you suggest implenting your part of the code, to make it more clean? I tried some different ways, but it doesn't work out. Error all the way.

kovidgoyal · 03-22-2013, 10:19 AM

What error do you get?

realbase · 03-22-2013, 01:34 PM

I just tried to remove the 'convert'-part, since I don't understand why I use it.
(I'm a newbie, thats why

)

This is the code i tried to use.

You need to put the convert code back. What you want to do is unzip the epub and return the path to the opf inside the epub from build_index(). The way to do that is either to unzip it, or convert it to oeb.

realbase · 04-19-2013, 05:07 PM

I retried to trie to do something with your feedback.

(I followed the same route as this guy does: http://l_uka.pentax.org.pl/calibre/biweekly.recipe )

Now the code looks like this, and it really works:

Hi there,

This is an old post, but hope you can help me out with the recipe? Not working currently with Calibre!

Thanks, Niels

This thread is indeed quite old and the suggested recipe no longer works with the current Calibre. Can someone take a gander at it and update it?
