txt2book

This mod allows you to import books or articles from supported websites and convert them into in-game Minecraft books.

Supported Websites:

• Telegraph (good)
• Ponyfiction (good)
• Ficbook (good with small texts)
• .docx documents (WIP)

Ficbook is blocked in Russia, so you will need to set up a proxy in ./config/txt2book.toml

How to Use

To import a book, use the following command:

/txt2book <source> <workId> [signed]

Example:

/txt2book ponyfiction 333

This will import the story from ponyfiction.org/story/333 and give you a Minecraft book.

You can also specify whether the book should be signed (minecraft:written_book) or unsigned (minecraft:writable_book). By default, the book will be signed.

Examples:

• /txt2book ponyfiction 333 true – Creates a signed book.
• /txt2book ponyfiction 333 false – Creates an unsigned, writable book.

Finding workId:

• Ficbook: ficbook.net/readfic/**10936980** → Work ID is "10936980"
• Ponyfiction: ponyfiction.org/story/**220** → Work ID is "220"
• Telegraph: telegra.ph/**Pikabu-Puls-August-2024-09-16** → Work ID is "Pikabu-Puls-August-2024-09-16"

Admin Commands

• /txt2book reload – Reloads the configuration.
• /txt2book resetCache – Clears the book cache, allowing faster access to recently imported books.

Permissions

By default, all commands are restricted to server operators. You can adjust access using the permission system.

About docx importing

The first title in a document is considered the title of the book. All subsequent titles are chapter titles.

Plans

• Improve .docx importing
• Improve Ficbook importing
