The Epube is a plugin for the Tiny Tiny RSS (TT-RSS) service that converts articles to EPUB format. It allows users to read articles offline or on e-readers. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install The Epube plugin on Debian Latest.
We need to install the packages required for the installation of The Epube plugin. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install git zip
The first command will update the package repository, and the second command installs the necessary packages for Git and Zip.
We will now clone the repository containing the plugin source code. Run the following command to clone the repository:
cd /var/www/tt-rss/plugins
sudo git clone https://github.com/txtsd/the-epube.git
This will download the plugin files to the plugins/ folder of your TT-RSS installation.
Once the repository is cloned, we need to install the plugin. Run the following command:
cd the-epube
sudo chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh
This command will run the installation script for The Epube plugin. The install script will copy the necessary files to the appropriate folders and enable the plugin.
We can verify that the plugin is installed correctly by checking the list of installed plugins in TT-RSS. Login to your TT-RSS instance in a web browser and go to Preferences -> Plugins. You should see The Epube listed there.
Now, we can create an EPUB file from an article. Open an article and click on the "EPUB" icon. This will create a new EPUB document in your downloads folder.
