Write simple String data to epub

[ap-atul]

I am trying to use this lib in Android app. I have bunch of api calls which returns String data. I want to write the response to EPUB file with resource being the new String and save it.

Can you give an example for above?

The README has an example about how to create a EPUB:
https://github.com/documentnode/epub4j#creating-an-epub-programmatically

An EPUB file is really just a zip file that compresses the HTML, CSS, and other content files into one package. So, you will need to follow the structure and create the EPUB from your response data (the content).

I have seen that example, but want to write string instead of HTML file

The resource can be built from a file, or data (convert your string to byte[]) directly:

In the README.md it states that you have to add these lines to build.gradle:

dependencies {
  implementation('io.documentnode.epub4j:epub4j-core:4.2') {
    exclude group: 'xmlpull'
  }
}

However, it should be:

    implementation('io.documentnode:epub4j-core:4.2.1') {
        exclude group: 'xmlpull'
    }

This took me some time to figure out.

Thanks for sharing your library, Jan Rekers
