Archive as Epub

[rutkai]

Add the option to archive links as Epub books:

Fixes #496.

Hi @rutkai, thanks for your contribution! We hadn't planned on Epub archiving mainly because there hasn't been much demand for it. But we do have a request for SingleFile archiving. Could your work be adapted to fit this? Your input would be valuable.

Hi @daniel31x13, sure, implementing single file shouldn't be an issue.

Speaking of Epub, there are tons of tools that forward articles to Kindle (I use such a feature myself too) and I thought this may be a good addition. I'm considering using linkwarden instead of shiori and this feature is missing from here, so I thought why not adding it.

[daniel31x13]

I really appreciate the thought you've put into your suggestion - it could be quite useful for specific scenarios like yours. However, we're trying to balance individual ideas with what's best for all our users and the project's path forward.
Adding too many varied features without a shared vision might make things a bit too complex for most folks.

Understandable. Btw is there a forum to promote my idea? It is possible that others just didn't think of this feature but otherwise would like it to have. Shall I post an issue about it with enhancement label?

[daniel31x13]

Thank you for your understanding, we already stated how we go for new suggestions over here. Basically yes, an issue with an enhancement label.

Same as you 👍
