Install cask
that extends the brew
command :
brew install phinze/cask/brew-cask
Install calibre
using cask
:
brew cask install calibre
Setup $PATH
for calibre
(add ebook-convert
and other commands to $PATH
) :
export PATH="~/Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS/:$PATH"
Or add it to your shell's .profile
with :
echo 'export PATH=~/Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS/:$PATH' >> ~/.profile
Now ebook-convert
should be available :)
As of 2017, it looks like you no longer need to run
brew install phinze/cask/brew-cask
.brew cask install calibre
should be enough to gain access to theebook-convert
command on modern OSX.
