Search directly

By default, book-scraping-fzf prompts the user for the book name to search. However, you can perform a direct search by passing the argument using echo.

To bypass the interactive prompt and provide the book name directly from the command line, you can use redirection as follows:

echo "linux" | ./book-scraping-fzf --en --pdf --lib

Prioritize book searches on libgen (Automatic download support)

book-scraping-fzf --lib

Search by author

./book-scraping-fzf --en --author "gabriel garcia"

Search pdf in spanish

book-scraping-fzf --pdf --es

Search epub

book-scraping-fzf --epub

Search multiple books

To search for multiple books using csv-search script, first, edit the books.csv file in a text editor or spreadsheet application to make any necessary changes, such as adding, removing, or adjusting book information. After saving the file, run the csv-search command in your terminal or command lin
