Mylyn/Docs/EPUB

< Mylyn‎ | Docs
Revision as of 14:43, 14 April 2012 by Torkildr.gmail.com (Talk | contribs) (Added features and planned features)

The EPUB framework in Mylyn Docs offers API to create, manipulate, read and write EPUB formatted files. There is also a UI operation for building publications from markup. WikiText markup in all supported formats (Textile, MediaWiki, Creole, Confluence etc.) can be converted to XHTML and packaged as EPUB using a one step wizard found in the file popup menu. If more control and flexibility is required when assembling EPUBs, there is in addition an Ant task that may be used to this end.

The EPUB support can currently only be found in the nightly builds repository at http://download.eclipse.org/mylyn/snapshots/nightly/docs/

  • Wizard for converting a single markup file to an EPUB.
  • Ant task for assembling an EPUB.

  • Improved wizard for converting markup to EPUB.
    • Add more than one file to the EPUB.
    • Store settings when done and repopulate fields when starting the wizard again.
