Pandoc Markdown ebook template
==============================

This project defines a skeleton repo for creating ebooks out of `Pandoc Markdown
`_. Pandoc is a great tool for
writing ebooks with simple to moderately complex formatting, but I've found that
in practice, creating an EPUB isn't *quite* as simple as just running ``pandoc
-o book.epub book.md``.

The author of Pandoc has written a short tutorial for `creating EPUB files with
Pandoc `_. This repo just expands on
MacFarlane's tutorial a bit and wraps things up in a Makefile.

Installing and running
----------------------

1. If you have not already done so, install:

* `git `_
* `make `_ (OS X users should install XCode
and `download the command line tools
`_.)
* `pandoc `_
* `latex `_ (OS X users should probably
install `MacTex `_.)

2. Clone this repo with **git**.

3. From the top of the project, type ``make book`` or simply, ``make``.
This generates three versions of the sample book in a ``build/`` directory.


Replacing the sample material
-----------------------------

Edit these files:

ch01.md and ch02.md
```````````````````

Replace the dummy text with your own. You can add, subtract, or rename these
``*.md`` chapters as you please, but you must edit the ``CHAPTERS`` variable in
the ``Makefile`` accordingly.

images/cover.jpg
````````````````

Replace this with your own cover image or delete it entirely.

Makefile
````````

* Change ``BOOKNAME`` to something appropriate for your book. This determines your
book's filename.

* Change ``CHAPTERS`` to a space separated list of Pandoc Markdown chapters, in
the order in which you want them to appear.

* Change ``COVER_IMAGE``. You might want to move your cover image
elsewhere, or use a different file format such as PNG.

If you don't want a cover image, delete this variable and the
``--epub-cover-image`` option in the EPUB target.

* (Optional) Change ``LATEX_CLASS``. The default of ``report`` handles
multi-chapter books pretty well, and uses the same template for even and odd
page numbers. However, you are free to substitute in any other LaTeX document
class. For example, ``book`` provides a left-side/right-side template that is
suitable for print, and ``article`` is good for shorter manuscripts (short
stories, technical briefs).

title.txt
`````````

Replace the contents of this file with the real manuscript title and author name.

metadata.xml
````````````

Replace with your actual copyright statement, language, and any other Dublin
Core metadata you wish to provide.
