Crate lib_epub 

Epub library

A Rust library for reading and manipulating EPUB eBook files.

This library provides complete EPUB file parsing functionality, supporting EPUB 2 and EPUB 3 formats. It can extract metadata, access content files, and handle encrypted resources. Furthermore, this library also provides a convenient way to build epub files from a set of resources.

Features

• Parse EPUB file structure and containers, extract metadata, access resource files.
• Automatic handle encrypted content.
• Optional EPUB build functionality via ‘builder’ feature.
• EPUB specification-compliant verification mechanism.

Quick Start

Read EPUB Files

// Open EPUB file
let doc = EpubDoc::new("path/to/epub/file.epub")?;

// Get metadata
println!("Title: {:?}", doc.get_title()?);
println!("Creator: {:?}", doc.get_metadata_value("creator")?);

// Read content
let (_content, _mime) = doc.spine_current()?;
let (_content, _mime) = doc.next_spine()?;

Feature flags

This crate uses 2 feature flags to reduce the needless code for your project. By default, this crate only provides structs and trait related to reading and parsing EPUB documents. If you want to use more features related to EPUB, please use the feature flag to turn on the section you need.

• builder: Enable lib_epub::builder, provides structs and trait related to building EPUB documents.
• content_builder: Enable lib_epub::builder::content, provides structs and trait related to building EPUB content documents. Enabling this feature will turn on the builder feature by default.
