A program to download a whole webtoon comic into a .epub file. (For use with an e-reader or similar.)
Note: !!This could break at any time because it relies on the current layout of Webtoon's website!!
I have decided to stop adding new features and improving this script. Webtoons are meant to be read vertically, while ebooks are not. I have tried to crop them to fit on pages, but this is not perfect and often leads to very long images that are impossible to read. Therefore, I will only be fixing bugs from now on.
Using a venv:
git clone https://github.com/westhecool/webtoon-to-epub.git
cd webtoon-to-epub
python3 -m venv venv
./venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt./venv/bin/python3 main.py [link to chapter list of Webtoon series]The input must be a link to the chapter list of the webtoon series. Please do not use the mobile version of the site as it's not tested.
Webtoon stores images in a very weird way where they are at a fixed size which often leads to comic panels getting cut right in half. You can use the argument --auto-crop to attempt to automatically crop the images. (Enabled by default.) This isn't perfect though, and may be buggy.
You can use the option --split-into-parts (Not enabled by default.) to split the comic into multiple files. By default, it splits every 100 chapters into a different file. You can adjust it with the argument --chapters-per-part N.
You can use the program ebook-convert (Which is part of Calibre) to easily convert to .mobi:
