IMPORTANT
No further development will occur in this package as it has been supeseded by the actively maintained and quite spiffy! epubr package.
pubcrawl
Convert ‘epub’ Files to Text
Description
Convert ‘epub’ Files to Text
The ‘epub’ file format is really just a structured ‘ZIP’ archive with metadata, graphics and (usually) ‘HTML’ text. Tools are provided to turn an ‘epub’ file into a tidy data frame.
What’s Inside The Tin
The following functions are implemented:
epub_to_text: Convert an epub file into a data frame of plaintext chapters
NOTE
There are edge cases I’ve totally not covered yet. Feel free to jump in and make this a real, useful package!
TODO
- [X] Refactor so there aren’t so many heavy dependencies
[ ] Try to getMoved the cleaner code into herehgron CRAN so it’s not a GH dep- [ ] Better docs
- [X] Embed some epubs for examples and tests
- [X] Setup Travis, Appveyor, code coverage
