This is what I tried to perform the task if anyone can help out it would be most appreciated. So in this code it will display just the cover page. I read http://www.siegmann.nl/static/epublib/apidocs/ that you could use getSpine()
to get everything but it only displayed one thing on my case which is cover page.
webView = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
AssetManager am = getAssets();
try {
InputStream epubInputStream = am.open(bookName);
book = (new EpubReader()).readEpub(epubInputStream);
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("epublib", e.getMessage());
}
Spine spine = book.getSpine();
for (SpineReference bookSection : spine.getSpineReferences()) {
Resource res = bookSection.getResource();
try {
InputStream is = res.getInputStream();
StringBuffer string = new StringBuffer();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
linez = string.append(line + "\n").toString();
}
} catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
//do something with stream
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
webView.loadData(linez, "text/html", "utf-8");
So what I figured out using spine on http://www.siegmann.nl/static/epublib/apidocs/ is that it still works by sections. So I tried to figure out how many sections are there by identifying count numbers. Then placed those numbers in Resource res = spine.getResource(i);
. If you would do Resource res = spine.getResource(2);
It would display the spine of 2 which should be chapter 2 unless someone messes up the format of the epub.
Spine spine = book.getSpine();
List<SpineReference> spineList = spine.getSpineReferences() ;
int count = spineList.size();
tv.setText(Integer.toString(count));
StringBuilder string = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; count > i; i++) {
Resource res = spine.getResource(i);
try {
InputStream is = res.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
linez = string.append(line + "\n").toString();
}
} catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
//do something with stream
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
webView.loadData(linez, "text/html", "utf-8");
