[Feature] Add synopsis as description to the epub

[olee]

As the title says, it would be awesome (at least for full volumes) to add the synopsis from JNC to the generated epub.

[gvellut]

Thank you for your feedback.

OK It can be added.

It should be relatively simple I think. The API response for a series and volume includes both a description and a shortDescription field so maybe have an option to handle either: description is the one shown on the website as the blurb. I think Calibre (and probably other readers) can use the dc:description field in the ePub for that.

While I am at it, it could be possible to add other metadata like tags.

Well - I tried adding it there as you can see, but your idea to add even more metadata sounds good - there's no point in not grabbing all the data we can get 👍

[gvellut]

Thank you. I will test your patch and will try to add the tags (using multiple dc:subject fields) so I will keep the issue open until this is done.

Cool - can you also give / add some instructions on how to run this locally? I just don't know how to call the cli 😅 I tried it like this but it just doesn't work for me:

@gvellut there's one more feature I'm interested in adding and might want to discuss that with you. Do you perhaps have a discord or something where I could reach out to you or do you prefer I just create an issue?

[gvellut]

To run on the command line, you have to use the -m switch to run as a module (it sets the PYTHONPATH differently than without) ie:

python -m jncep\jncep.py

As you suggest, I will add a section in the Readme about running locally.

For the new feature, I don't have a discord but it is fine if you create an issue here on Github. We can discuss the feature there.

Does not seem to work for me:

❯ python -m jncep/jncep.py
E:\dev\projects\jncep\.venv\Scripts\python.exe: Error while finding module specification for 'jncep/jncep.py' (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'jncep/jncep'). Try using 'jncep/jncep' instead of 'jncep/jncep.py' as the module name.

❯ python -m jncep/jncep
E:\dev\projects\jncep\.venv\Scripts\python.exe: No module named jncep/jncep

[gvellut]

I misstyped: I meant python -m jncep.jncep
