Installation
The plugin was tested only with Zim 0.68 on Linux and Windows. If the plugin installs correctly the entry "Export Site" will be present in the Tools menu.
Prerequisites
- Pandoc application
- Python modules: pyyaml, dateutil, six
Windows prerequisites
It is not possible to install additional Python modules to the "compiled" version of Zim for Windows so a workaround is used:
On Windows the following modules must be manually copied to winmodules from the modules installed in a normal Python 2.7 installation or a virtual environment:
- pyyaml: copy lib/yaml/* to winmodules/yaml/
- dateutil: copy dateutil/* to winmodules/dateutil/
- six: copy six.py to winmodules/
The path to winmodules is: %APPDATA%/zim/data/zim/plugins/siteexporter/winmodules
Installation
Copy the Python code to the Zim plugin directory. The following script can be executed on Linux from the siteexporter subdirectory:
publish.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash
zimdir="~/.local/share/zim"
zimdir="${zimdir/#\~/$HOME}"
plugdir=${zimdir}/plugins
siteexdir=${plugdir}/siteexporter
if [ ! -d ${zimdir} ]; then
echo "Local Zim directory not found. Is Zim installed?"
exit 1
fi
if [ ! -d ${siteexdir} ]; then
mkdir -p ${siteexdir}
fi
echo "Copying to ${siteexdir}"
cp *.py ${siteexdir}/
