Re: [PLUG] Packt downloading script update

I think my problem is the requirements.txt file. It is an html file and when I try to do 

pip install -r requirements.txt

I get an error because the file is not a text file. I am new to git so when I click on the requirements.txt file I see four lines so I am not sure what is wrong. I will keep  looking into it and see what stupid thing I am doing wrong.

At the top of the config file is the following:
[LOGIN_DATA]
password= yourpassword

replace the text after email= and password= with ur account info and also remember to remove the word template form the name of the file.

I've tried to run this on a Ubuntu VM i have running but haven't got it working. Editing the config is a bit tough for me. I can't find where the login stuff needs to be edited.

If you're also grabbing Packt Publishing's daily free ebook, and you don't have an automated setup, or if you're interested in starting to do so, I've found a better script. It's Python (either 2 or 3 works), config was very simple, it supports grabbing any or all formats and the code samples as well. You can also download all books you've previously grabbed, which was a big win for me.


I'm running it on my Linode via cron and it's nice and reliable.
