broken epub (zip)

[mprivoro]

Hi,

If one or more files in epub file are broken

Bad CRC-32 for file 'OPS/images/CrackInCreation-14.jpg'

file could not be parsed, is there a way to read ignoring the zip errors?
for my example, the error is only in picture, the text and metadata are ok...

Hi!

Nothing out of the box but maybe you can try something like this. Did not test it because I can't find broken ZIP file, but something like this might help.

import posixpath as zip_path
from ebooklib.epub import EpubReader

class MyReader(EpubReader):
    def read_file(self, name):
        # Raises KeyError
        try:
            name = zip_path.normpath(name)
            return self.zf.read(name)
        except:
            return ''

reader = MyReader("book.epub", None)

book = reader.load()
reader.process()
