# ickabog-ebook ![](https://img.shields.io/badge/Chapters%20Published-21%2F34-brightgreen)

Generates ebooks for The Ickabog by J.K Rowling. Original text from https://www.theickabog.com/. Since the book is still being published, please consider this "in-progress".

## Dependencies:

- `wget`
- [`pup`](https://github.com/ericchiang/pup)
- [`pandoc`](https://pandoc.org/) to generate EPUB and PDF files
- `qpdf` to add cover to PDF files. (optional)
- `kindlegen` or `calibre` installed to generate MOBI files. (optional)

## How to run

`./generate.sh`

You should have `ickabog.epub`, and `ickabog.pdf` in your directory after the script finishes. If you have [ConTeXt][context] installed, you will also get a `ickabog-large.pdf` file with large fonts to be kid-friendly.

## Known Issues

The PDF is optimized for few pages of printing, so has a small font size by default. If you'd like a kid-friendly version, [install context][context] to get `ickabog-large.pdf` file.
