```
## Install
```
npm install -g gitbook-summary
```
## Using
1> Generate a `SUMMARY.md` Simply
```
$ cd /path/to/your/book/
$ book sm
```
or, For example:
```
$ book sm -r ../sailsjs-docs-gitbook/en -i 0home -u 'myApp' -c 'concepts, reference, userguides' -n "Sails.js 官方文档(中英合辑）"
```
To see the command line options:
```
$ book sm --help
Usage: summary|sm [options]
Generate a `SUMMARY.md` from a folder
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-r, --root [string] root folder, default is `.`
-t, --title [string] book title, default is `Your Book Title`.
-c, --catalog [list] catalog folders included book files, default is `all`.
-i, --ignores [list] ignore folders that be excluded, default is `[]`.
-u, --unchanged [list] unchanged catalog like `request.js`, default is `[]`.
-o, --outputfile [string] output file, defaut is `./SUMMARY.md`
-s, --sortedBy [string] sorted by sortedBy, for example: `num-`, defaut is sorted by characters
-d, --disableTitleFormatting don't convert filename/folder name to start case (for example: `JavaScript` to `Java Script`), default is `false`
```
**Notes**：
* The article title is taken from `title` property in the articles front-matter. If this property is not available, the articles filename will be used as title for the summary.
* The option `-s` or `--sortedBy` can not be given `-` as argument, because commander.js will parse it an option. But you can set it in `book.json` as follows.
* set up the sortedBy and if there are any summaries missing the order, look at the example below and follow,
for example, you have summaries like this `01-elementry-school, 02-middle-school, 03-university, ...`
you realized high school was missing, then You can make correct order in the following way
eg. `01-elementry-school, 02-middle-school, 02a-high-school, 03-university, ...`
not `01-elementry-school, 02-middle-school, 03-high-school, 04-university, ...`
2> Create a `book.json` in the book`s root folder
for example:
```
// test/books/config-json/book.json
{
"title": "json-config-name",
"outputfile": "test.md",
"catalog": "all", // or [chapter1，chapter2, ...]
"ignores": [], //Default: '.*', '_book'...
"unchanged": [], // for example: ['myApp'] -> `myApp` not `My App`
"sortedBy": "-",
"disableTitleFormatting": true // default: false
}
```
then, you can do:
```
$ book sm
```
You will get a `test.md` file:
3> Get a markdown artical from a html file or a remote url
```
$ book md -l "http://book.btcnodejs.com/index.html" -s "div.className"
```
You will get the 'index.html' and 'index.md'.
4> Get convert between zh and zh-tw, zh-hk, or zh-sg
```
$ book cv -f ./test/language/test.md -l zh-tw -t "./test/language/test2.md"
```
## Development
```
npm install
npm link
```
## Test
```
npm test
```
## Todo
