you-dont-know-js-epub

"You Don't Know JS Yet" (1st/2nd editions) ePub generator.

• Original book series by Kyle Simpson: 2nd Edition (in progress) and 1st Edition.
• Inspired by gist: bmaupin/6e3649af73120fac2b6907169632be2c

Generate the ePub

Run with Docker:

# force update to the latest image
docker pull gongzhang/ydkjs-epub

# generate epub into output folder
docker run --rm -it -v $PWD/output:/root/output gongzhang/ydkjs-epub

Then the generated epub files are in output folder:

Note that the first two books (Get Started and Scope & Closures) are from the latest 2nd edition, and the rest are from the 1st edition.

Customization

First, recursively clone this repo to your machine:

git clone --recursive [e-mail]:gongzhang/you-dont-know-js-epub.git

Then you can:

• Modify epub.css to customize the style.
• Read gen.sh to understand how the generator works.
• Fetch the latest book content using git submodule command under 1st-edition and 2nd-edition directory.

Finally, rebuild the Docker image and generate your own version epubs:

docker build -t ydkjs-epub .
docker run --rm -it -v $PWD/output:/root/output ydkjs-epub

Known Issues & TODOs

• Support syntax highlighing (The latest pandoc does support syntax highlight, but the genrated ePub cannot be correctly rendered by iBooks app.)
