README

Bibliofile

A TUI-based ebook reader inspired by NCurses-era programs!

Bibliofile is a simplified epub reader with automatic bookmarking!

Instructions:

  • installation

  • use

  • feedback

installation

At the moment, Bibliofile is a work-in-progress.

I have uploaed the crate to crates.io since it is in a minimally-workable state at the moment, but if you wish to compile it yourself simply follow these directions:

1

Install Rust. The full Instructions on how to do this are here: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

The easiest way of installing Rust is with the following command:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

2

Clone the repository to the directory of your choice

git clone https://git.whoisthisjoker.com/daniel/bibliofile

3

cd into the directory bibliofile. Compile the program. This is best done with cargo.

cargo build

The executable will be in target/debug.

Please keep in mind, at this point in development compilation success is not guaranteed.

running

Running the program is simple, as at this point there is not many features. Simply run

bibliofile [booknamehere.epub]

There will be buttons at the bottom of each page that allow you to turn pages. Simply press "last" or "next" to turn the page. There are not yet any keyboard commands to turn pages, but that is the next feature I mean to implement.

disclamers

This program is incomplete. It will be lacking features such s searching text, skipping pages, and using the table of contents. I update this program regularly, so stay tuned!
