CBZ to EPUB Converter

This script converts all .cbz files in a specified folder to .epub format. It extracts images from the CBZ files, compresses them, and creates an EPUB file for each CBZ file.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have Python 3 installed on your system. You will also need the following Python libraries:

  • Pillow
  • ebooklib
  • tqdm

You can install these libraries using pip:

pip install pillow ebooklib tqdm

Installation

  1. Clone this repository or download the script convert-cbz-to-epub.py to your local machine.

  2. Ensure the script is executable. You can set the execute permission using:

chmod +x convert-cbz-to-epub.py

Usage

Run the script from the command line, providing the path to the folder containing your .cbz files and the output folder where the .epub files will be saved:

python convert-cbz-to-epub.py /path/to/your/input_folder /path/to/your/output_folder

Optional Arguments

  • --quality: Image compression quality (1-100). Default is 80.
  • --max-height: Maximum height for images. Default is 1024.

Example with optional arguments:

python convert-cbz-to-epub.py /path/to/your/input_folder /path/to/your/output_folder --quality 90 --max-height 1200

Example

Assume you have a folder /home/user/comics containing several .cbz files and you want to save the .epub files in /home/user/epubs. To convert all these files to .epub format with default settings, run:

python convert-cbz-to-epub.py /home/user/comics /home/user/epubs

Output

The script will create an .epub file for each .cbz file in the specified output directory. The output files will have the same name as the input files but with an .epub extension.
