# Export goodreads books into markdown files (Obsidian etc)
Transform your goodreads.com book reviews into structured markdown files,
ideal for use in [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) and other markdown-based applications.
- **Goodreads Book Page Links:** Each markdown file contains a direct link to the corresponding book's page on Goodreads.
- **Calibre Integration:** Includes a [Search in Calibre](https://calibre-ebook.com/) URL for each book, allowing quick searches
in your local Calibre collection.
- **Tagging Based on Goodreads Shelves:** Reviews are automatically categorized with tags derived from your Goodreads shelves.
- **Customizable Templates:** Utilizing Jinja2 templates, the output format can be easily customized to suit your specific needs or preferences.

### Codebase structure
[Auto-generated reference](https://andgineer.github.io/goodreads-export/docstrings/).
### Create / activate environment
    . ./activate.sh
It will also install the package in [edit mode](https://realpython.com/what-is-pip/#installing-packages-in-editable-mode-to-ease-development).
### Setting Up Pre-commit for Formatting and Static Checks
1. **Install Pre-commit**:
   ```bash
   pip install pre-commit
   ```
2. **Configure Pre-commit**:
   ```bash
   pre-commit install
   ```
This sets up `pre-commit` in your local environment to run the same static checks as the `static` GitHub Action.
