I am trying to generate a new book and create some new chapters in it, add old chapters to it, change component types, etc. Is there a method to create a new chapter in a book and can we use the same method to add old chapters to a new book? I tried creating a new object of the BookComponent class and manipulating its properties but it does not have a constructor.
I think the method you want is on a Book object. It is called NewSeriesBookComponent. Here is a function that takes a Book object and an Array of absolute file names and adds each component in the Array to the book. Hopefully, this will get you started.
function addFilesToBook (book, filesArray) {
var i = 0, count = filesArray.length, bookComp;
for (i = 0; i < count; i += 1) {
bookComp = book.NewSeriesBookComponent (0);
if (bookComp.NextComponentInBook.ObjectValid()) {
bookComp.NextComponentInBook = 0;
}
bookComp.Name = filesArray.path;
}
}
