Hi,
When I try to use the package with typescript, tsc says that "GeneralObject" and "HtmlNodeObject" unrecognized.
Changing those type to "any" works for me - but there is one problem:
I want to deploy my work on Heroku, and I cannot do so because it downloads the package itself.
I fixed it by changing the package and adding it to my code (not under the node_modules folder)
Just wanted to ask you if you think there is a better solution :)
Thank you!

A book can have multiple authors. info.authors should be an array of authors, not string.

example from xml:

<dc:creator opf:role="aut" opf:file-as="Santa &amp; Smith, John">Santa Claus</dc:creator>
<dc:creator opf:role="aut">John Smith</dc:creator>

All images in my epub cannot be found when running toHTMLObjects(). Here's a screenshot. I even tried editing the epub, but it didnt fixed the problem.

Here's the sample epub. Just rename the extension to epub.
sample_book.zip

heve a problem with importing in ionic-angualr2

I tried with several .epub from www.bibebook.com. The IDs are always undefined

the file I'm using for exemple:

http://www.bibebook.com/files/ebook/libre/V2/dumas_alexandre_-_le_docteur_mysterieux_i.epub

I'm using the library in a Vue component:

      <v-col>
          <v-file-input v-model="file" accept=".epub" label="File input"></v-file-input>
          <v-btn v-if="filePresent" @click="handleRead">Lire</v-btn>
        </v-col>

    ...
    private handleRead() {
    const reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = evt => {
      parseEpub(evt.target!.result as Buffer)
        .then((res: Epub) => this.setBook(res))
        .catch((err: Error) => window.alert(err.message));
    };
    reader.readAsArrayBuffer(this.file);
  }
  private setBook(b: Epub) {
    this.book = b;
    console.log(this.book);
  }

Hi,

some epub files contain images, I would like to extract them? I'm using nodeJS, and I don't know how to import util functions with "require".

Thanks!

Hello @gaoxiaoliangz,

I have encountered the following error while parsing an ePub:

errorMessage": "Cannot read property 'href' of undefined", "errorType": "TypeError", "stackTrace": [ "TypeError: Cannot read property 'href' of undefined", " at Epub.<anonymous> (/Users/xx/Desktop/workspaces/xxx/node_modules/@gxl/epub-parser/src/parseEpub.ts:185:52)",

I think that the above issue might be because of the toc attribute not being found in the <spine /> tag. I've tried removing the unused attribute in the .opf file, and replaced it with the expected toc attribute, and I did not have the error anymore.

The ePub 3.2 specifications points out the toc attribute is optional in the <spine />. Instead of breaking, shouldn't it advisable to continue the parsing process when the attribute is not found ?

Thanks in advance @gaoxiaoliangz for your reply and keep up the good work 😊

One of the packages you depend on is out of date.
