github.com/booktype/Booktype @v2.4.0

Booktype

Booktype makes it easier and quicker for authors, companies and organisations to edit and publish books. It imports DOCX or EPUB files, converts them into single-source HTML for online editing and proofreading, and uses CSS Paged Media to produce good-looking output for print, the open web, and almost any ebook reader, in seconds. Booktype facilitates collaborative, agile production across time zones and borders.

Booktype is built on the Django web framework and many great Python libraries.

The Booktype user interface is being translated into many languages by our community of contributors. Your help with development or translation is always welcome!

To run tests:

1. Open a terminal and activate the virtual environment (Booktype must be installed).
2. Go to (cd command) instance root (folder with manage.py and pytest.ini file).
3. Run the py.test command.
4. If you want pytest to print test coverage information, you should run py.test --cov-report term-missing --cov=path/to/Booktype. You can read more about coverage here: pytest-cov
