Make installable via pipx? #42

Open ret2src opened 1 year ago

ret2src commented 1 year ago

Thank you for creating this project! Do you think you could make it installable via pipx? This would make it much easier to integrate your project into installer/bootstrapping-scripts...

It would be awesome to get epub-thumbnailer packaged. Unfortunately, I'm unfamiliar with packaging, and I don't currently have the time to dedicate to this.

If you want to package it, I'd be happy to review any PRs.

@ret2src Do try to install and run epub-thumbnailer via pipx pipx install git+https://github.com/marianosimone/epub-thumbnailer

Hi, thanks @marianosimone for the neat script! 👍

The pipx installation works with @arky's project declaration, but the app is called epub-thumbnailer.py. The .py suffix is pretty annoying and not apt for an application, IMHO. I would appreciate a dedicated script entry to setup a CLI script epub-thumbnailer without the suffix. Also, it would be great if it could be published to PyPi. That would make the installation easy and “as expected”. 🙃

Thanks for your suggestions @DLFW . As before, I have no familiarity with packaging, nor currently have the setup to test things out. However, I'd be happy to take any PRs
