Smart autofix features #49

What about some «clever features»: 1) auto add xml declaration if does not exist <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 2) auto fix if <html> to valid <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:epub="http://www.idpf.org/2007/ops" xml:lang="ru-RU" lang="en-EN"> 3) set valid xml notation via applying nokogiri preparsing to enpacked xhtml (will quickfix forgotten /> etc)

Thanks. These features look good for me.

But gepub still have some important but missing features (e.g. API to traverse EPUB) to be implemented, so I can not work on this feature request yet. Maybe after release of version 1.0.

Pull request for these features are welcome.

Ok, I'll try to implement. How do you see it (as far as I don't want to intrude your architecture :-) )? As a parametric feature on setting up constructor or just a couple of methods respectively?

How about API like this?

book = GEPUB::Book.new {
  |book|
  # add resources
}

book.normalize_content_xhtml
book.generate_epub('path_to_epub.epub')
