Gitbook Docker Image

Reserved legacy gitbook image in case that it might not be available someday in the future.

Run as Docker container so you don't have to mess with node environment and gitbook versions.
Super easy to install with docker, type docker pull leizhilong/gitbook and you're good to go.
Fixed plugin-copy-confirm issue GitbookIO/gitbook-cli#55 of the newest version 3.2.3.
With support for pdf and epub generation and you never have to worry about dependencies anymore.

See typical usages in the Makefile bellow:

BOOK_TITLE?="my-awsome-book"
GITBOOK_CMD=docker run -v `pwd`:/srv/gitbook --rm leizhilong/gitbook gitbook

pdf:
    $(GITBOOK_CMD) pdf . _book/$(BOOK_TITLE).pdf

epub:
    $(GITBOOK_CMD) epub . _book/$(BOOK_TITLE).epub

site:
    $(GITBOOK_CMD) build

serve:
    # use --init to enable ctrl-c response override, use -p to expose service.
    docker run -v `pwd`:/srv/gitbook -p 4000:4000 --rm --init leizhilong/gitbook gitbook serve

clean:
    rm -rf _book && mkdir -p _book
    $(GITBOOK_CMD) ls
    $(GITBOOK_CMD) current

all: clean site pdf epub

.PHONY: clean pdf epub site all serve

mdbook by rust community is a great alternative to gitbook, but pdf or epub generation remains unsupported now.
