# mdBook
Personal implementation of Gitbook in Rust
**This is still a work in progress...**
## Contributions
Contributions are highly apreciated. If you don't know what you could do, take a look at the issue tracker. I try to put all the remaining tasks on it. There are a lot of easy tasks that someone not familiar with the project could tackle.
If you have an idea for improvement, create a new issue. Or a pull request if you can :)
## cli tool
#### init
If you run `mdbook init` in a directory, it will create a couple of folders and files you can start with.
This is the strucutre it creates at the moment:
```
book-test/
├── book
└── src
├── chapter_1.md
└── SUMMARY.md
```
`book` and `src` are both directories. `src` contains the markdown files that will be used to render the ouput to the `book` directory.
You can also pass a directory to `mdbook init` to use instead of the current directory:
```
mdbook init path/to/my/book
```
<sup>**Not implemented yet:** using `--theme` flag will create a theme folder with the default theme in `src` so that you can customize it.</sup>
#### build
Use `mdbook build` in the directory to render the book. You can also give a path as argument to use instead of the current directory.
## lib
Aside the command-line tool, this crate can also be used as a library.
