🇵🇱 README po polsku

A project containing tools to convert the Jakub Wujek Bible (based on the 1923 edition available on Wikisource) into open biblical standards.

It allows you to generate:

1. OSIS XML file – a universal format for exchanging biblical texts.
2. SWORD module – ready for use in applications such as Xiphos, And Bible, BibleTime, or The Word.

To build the project, you need a Linux environment (or WSL) with the following packages installed:

• python3 – to run the conversion script.
• make – to automate the process.
• unzip – to extract source data.
• zip – to build the SWORD archive.
• osis2mod – tool for compiling the SWORD module.
  • Debian/Ubuntu: libsword-utils or xiphos package.
  • Fedora/RHEL: sword-utils package.

If you only need the XML file (e.g., for further processing):

make

To build a ready-to-use, compressed binary module:

make sword

This process automatically downloads the data, converts it using the make_osis.py script, and compiles it using osis2mod.

The make_osis.py script is responsible for fetching EPUB content from Wikisource, cleaning it, and formatting it to the OSIS standard, taking into account the specifics of the Polish text of the Wujek Bible.

The original text of the Bible (translated by Fr. Jakub Wujek) is in the public domain.
