I personally hate reading PDFs on a browser, this lets me read them much more easily offline. This is just for personal use. # Installation ## Linux / Build ``` git clone https://github.com/captn3m0/muse-dl.git cd muse-dl shards install shards build ./bin/muse-dl --help ``` ## Linux / Download A linux x86_64 static build is available in the latest release: . Save the file as `muse-dl` and remember to mark it as executable (`chmod +x`). ## Docker A docker image is available at `captn3m0/muse-dl` on Docker Hub. The working directory for the image is set as `/data`, so you'll need to mount your output-directory as `/data` for it to work. Sample invocations; ``` # Download the book, and put it in your Downloads directory docker run -it /home/nemo/Downloads:/data captn3m0/muse-dl:edge https://muse.jhu.edu/book/875 # If you have a list.txt file in your Downloads directory, then you can run docker run -it /home/nemo/Downloads:/data captn3m0/muse-dl:edge /data/list.txt # If you want to keep the temporary files with your host, and not delete them docker run -it /home/nemo/Downloads:/data /tmp:/musetmp captn3m0/muse-dl:edge --tmp-dir /musetmp --no-cleanup https://muse.jhu.edu/book/875 ``` Replace edge with the latest version number if you'd like to run a tagged release. ### Docker Images The following images are available: - `edge`: Run `muse-dl` against latest master. - `edge-static`: Get the pre-built static-binary against latest master. - `v1.3.1`: Run `muse-dl` against the specific release. - `v1.3.1-static`: Get the pre-built static binary against the specific release. ## Requirements Please ensure you have `pdftk` installed, unless you're running via docker. ## Usage ``` Usage: muse-dl [--flags] [URL|INPUT_FILE] URL: A link to a book on the Project MUSE website, eg https://muse.jhu.edu/book/875 INPUT_FILE: Path to a file containing a list of links --no-cleanup Don't cleanup temporary files --tmp-dir PATH Temporary Directory to use --output FILE Output Filename --no-bookmarks Don't add bookmarks in the PDF --clobber Overwrite the output file, if it already exists. --dont-strip-first-page Disables first page from being stripped. Use carefully --cookie COOKIE Cookie-header -h, --help Show this help ``` ## Sample Run ``` muse-dl https://muse.jhu.edu/book/875 Saved final output to Accommodating Revolutions- Virginia's Northern Neck in an Era of Transformations, 1760-1810.pdf ``` Alternatively, if you pass a `input-file.txt` ([sample](https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/myBkNn6DSP/)), you can pass it as the sole parameter. `muse-dl input.txt` And it will download all the links in that file. ## License Licensed under the [MIT License](https://nemo.mit-license.org/).
