# EbookReader Animated Demonstrations
|
||||
|
||||
This directory contains animated GIF demonstrations of the pyWebLayout EbookReader functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
## Generated GIFs
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Page Navigation (`ereader_page_navigation.gif`)
|
||||
Demonstrates forward and backward page navigation through an EPUB book. Shows smooth transitions between pages using `next_page()` and `previous_page()` methods.
|
||||
|
||||
**Features shown:**
|
||||
- Sequential page advancement
|
||||
- Page-by-page content rendering
|
||||
- Natural reading flow
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Font Size Adjustment (`ereader_font_size.gif`)
|
||||
Shows dynamic font size scaling from 0.8x to 1.4x and back. The reader maintains the current reading position even as the layout changes with different font sizes.
|
||||
|
||||
**Features shown:**
|
||||
- `increase_font_size()` / `decrease_font_size()`
|
||||
- `set_font_size(scale)` with specific values
|
||||
- Position preservation across layout changes
|
||||
- Text reflow with different sizes
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Chapter Navigation (`ereader_chapter_navigation.gif`)
|
||||
Demonstrates jumping between chapters in a book. Each chapter's first page is displayed, showing the ability to navigate non-linearly through the content.
|
||||
|
||||
**Features shown:**
|
||||
- `jump_to_chapter(index)` for index-based navigation
|
||||
- `jump_to_chapter(title)` for title-based navigation
|
||||
- `get_chapters()` to list available chapters
|
||||
- Quick access to any part of the book
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Bookmarks & Positions (`ereader_bookmarks.gif`)
|
||||
Illustrates the bookmark system: navigating to a position, saving it, navigating away, and then returning to the saved position.
|
||||
|
||||
**Features shown:**
|
||||
- `save_position(name)` to bookmark current location
|
||||
- `load_position(name)` to return to saved bookmark
|
||||
- Position stability across navigation
|
||||
- Multiple bookmark support
|
||||
|
||||
## Generating Your Own GIFs
|
||||
|
||||
To generate these animations with your own EPUB file:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd examples
|
||||
python generate_ereader_gifs.py path/to/your/book.epub gifs/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will create all four GIF animations in the specified output directory.
|
||||
|
||||
### Script Options
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
python generate_ereader_gifs.py <epub_path> [output_dir]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `epub_path`: Path to your EPUB file (required)
|
||||
- `output_dir`: Directory to save GIFs (default: current directory)
|
||||
|
||||
### Customization
|
||||
|
||||
You can modify `generate_ereader_gifs.py` to adjust:
|
||||
- Frame duration (`duration` parameter in `create_gif()`)
|
||||
- Page dimensions (change `page_size` in `EbookReader`)
|
||||
- Number of frames for each animation
|
||||
- Font scale ranges
|
||||
- Animation sequences
|
||||
|
||||
