michaelnmmeyer / gutenberg Goto Github PK

Firstly, a great repo! ❤️

I was wondering if this could be customized not just for text format but any eBook format. I see that this is taken care of inside this function:

find_nodes(file, "dcterms:format/rdf:Description/rdf:value")

I could have tweaked a PR myself but I have no knowledge of Gutenberg RDF and very basic idea of python.

Would be a greatly helpful addition....

When executing gutenberg download "language:de", the following error occurs:

user:~/Documents/books$ gutenberg download "language:de"
gutenberg: updating catalog
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/gutenberg", line 843, in <module>
    cmd["func"](argv[2:])
  File "/usr/local/bin/gutenberg", line 794, in cmd_download
    Gutenberg().download(argv[0])
  File "/usr/local/bin/gutenberg", line 672, in __init__

  File "/usr/local/bin/gutenberg", line 678, in update_catalog
    for key, fp in iter_catalog(self.catalog_url):

    key = int(os.path.basename(os.path.dirname(tinfo.name)))
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'DELETE-52276'

Is the repository up-to-date with the current Gutenberg-website in general?

I'm having some difficulty locating the individual ebooks that the script downloaded. I did find the database file; are the ebooks wrapped inside it, or are they simply referenced inside the database and the actual files are elsewhere? If they are inside the database file, is there a way I can modify the script so it downloads the ebooks into a directory so I can do with them as I please?
