What it is

So Novel is a general-purpose web content extraction and export tool written in Java that scrapes structured information from web pages and converts it into EPUB, TXT, and PDF formats. It combines a DSL-based crawler engine with multiple UI frontends (CLI, TUI, WebUI) to enable efficient novel downloading, content aggregation, and e-book generation from multiple sources simultaneously. Monolithic Java JAR structured by concern: src/main/java/com/pcdd/sonovel/ contains core modules including dsl/ (rule engine with DSLParser and StepEngine), core/ (Crawler, HtmlExtractor, Source definition), handler/ (post-processing for EPUB/PDF/TXT merge), actions/ (CLI verbs like DownloadAction,…

Key cautions & unknowns

  • Small team — 3 contributors active in recent commits
  • Single-maintainer risk — top contributor 98% of recent commits
  • AGPL-3.0 is copyleft — check downstream compatibility
  • Config-dependent behavior: Novel sources are loaded from external config files (AppConfigLoader); missing or malformed config for a source will silently fail extraction. DSL execution: JavaScriptExecutor and…
  • Published-advisory coverage was unavailable for the captured dependencies.
  • Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
