cookiecutter-pandoc-ebook-template

This project is a cookiecutter wrapper for Evan David Goer's pandoc-ebook-template project which creates ebooks out of Pandoc Markdown.

Why?

After cloning Evan's project four or five times and then having remember which places to update, it became apparent that I at least needed this template. Enjoy!

Bla bla LaTeX is better than using Markdown...

Yes, you are right but life is too short to stare at LaTeX if Markdown will work.

Using this template

$ pip install cookiecutter
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/jefftriplett/cookiecutter-pandoc-ebook-template.git

You will be prompted for all relevate information.

Building your book

To build your ebook, first follow David's instructions to make sure you have:

• git
• make (OS X users should install XCode and download the command line tools.)
• pandoc
• latex (OS X users should probably install MacTex.)

You should be able to run make form inside your ebook's folder to generate your ebook.

$ make
