NAME

EBook::EPUB::Lite - module for generating EPUB documents

DESCRIPTION

This module is a fork of EBook::EPUB to avoid the use of non-core, XS dependencies like Moose and Data::UUID, using instead Moo and UUID::Tiny. This module and the original one should be 1:1 compatible.

VERSION

Version 0.71

SYNOPSIS

use EBook::EPUB::Lite;

# Create EPUB object
my $epub = EBook::EPUB::Lite->new;

# Set metadata: title/author/language/id
$epub->add_title('Three Men in a Boat');
$epub->add_author('Jerome K. Jerome');
$epub->add_language('en');
$epub->add_identifier('1440465908', 'ISBN');

# Add package content: stylesheet, font, xhtml and cover
$epub->copy_stylesheet('/path/to/style.css', 'style.css');
$epub->copy_file('/path/to/figure1.png', 
    'figure1.png', 'image/png');
$epub->encrypt_file('/path/to/CharisSILB.ttf', 
    'CharisSILB.ttf', 'application/x-font-ttf');
my $chapter_id = $epub->copy_xhtml('/path/to/page1.xhtml', 
    'page1.xhtml');
$epub->copy_xhtml('/path/to/notes.xhtml', 'notes.xhtml',
    linear => 'no'
);

# Add top-level nav-point
my $navpoint = $epub->add_navpoint(
        label       => "Chapter 1",
        id          => $chapter_id,
        content     => 'page1.xhtml',
        play_order  => 1 # should always start with 1
);

# Add cover image
# Not actual epub standart but does the trick for iBooks
my $cover_id = $epub->copy_image('/path/to/cover.jpg', 'cover.jpg');
$epub->add_meta_item('cover', $cover_id);

# Generate resulting ebook
$epub->pack_zip('/path/to/three_men_in_a_boat.epub');
