WikiReader

A KOReader plugin for reading Wikipedia articles as formatted books, with a cleaner reading experience than the built-in Wikipedia lookup.

Note

When an article is opened, it is saved as a temporary EPUB file in the koreader cache folder. The cache holds at most 10 EPUBs, with newer articles automatically replacing older ones. The cache can grow anywhere from 20 MB to 200 MB, depending on how image-heavy the articles you've read are. You can clear this cache from WikiReader Settings, if needed.

Usage

• Download the plugin from the releases page
• Copy the folder wikireader.koplugin to koreader/plugins folder on your device
• Restart the device
• Access WikiReader menu from the Search button in the top menu
