Introduction to the Yuedu Project
Overview
The Yuedu Project is designed to support the Yuedu App, a unique novel reading application. Unlike traditional novel reading software, Yuedu operates by parsing web pages for novels, such as search pages, details pages, directory pages, and text pages, to extract relevant information to display to users. To utilize the app effectively, users need to write or import novel sources themselves. This project provides a collection of these sources, designed by the creator for personal use, as a convenient starting point for new users.
Key Features
- Customizable Content: Users can bring an array of novel sources to the Yuedu App, thanks to its open architecture which allows manual and automated input of web sources, enhancing the reading choice.
- Community Sharing and Support: A portion of the book sources are crowdsourced from online recommendations, with a community-driven approach where users can suggest additional useful novel websites to be converted into sources.
Usage Tips
- Source Management: Since all sources are from third-party novel websites, their availability cannot be guaranteed indefinitely. To avoid losing access to your favorite novels, it's advised to cache complete works as TXT files early on or download entire TXT versions from the web.
- Adjusting Access and Performance: Most book sources may impose access rate limitations. To prevent issues like IP banning, it is suggested to lower the 'preload' settings in the app (typically between 1 to 5 chapters), as well as managing update and search thread numbers to reduce the chance of triggering limitations during offline caching.
Importing Book Sources
Yuedu provides several ways to import book sources into the app:
- QR Code Import (Recommended): By using the app's QR Code import feature, users can easily add book sources by scanning the appropriate code.
- Network Import (Recommended): Users can input network import addresses directly into the app. Several CDN addresses are available to ensure connection regardless of regional restrictions.
- Local Import: By downloading the necessary files from provided online addresses, users can then manually import these into the app from their device storage.
Advanced Features
The Yuedu App also supports advanced functionalities like text-to-speech for reading aloud novels, utilizing additional TTS engines for better experience if native options are limited.
Licensing and Community Support
The Yuedu project is distributed under the GPL-3.0 License, encouraging open collaboration and sharing. Users interested in contributing or enhancing their experience are encouraged to explore connected projects like TrackersList.com for BT downloading enhancements, and UserScript for additional customization.
For those who find the Yuedu Project beneficial, various avenues for community support and additional resources such as repositories and scripts are available.
