Conversion from Mybible

Post by WJSwanepoel »

Good day, Is it possible to convert a MyBible module (mybible.zone/a2d-eng.php) to theWord directly from its SQLite3 database?

I've not used it so no idea if/how well it works. Maybe this: https://github.com/schierlm/BibleMultiC ... r/releases

Thank you very much for that link. It works very, very well. I managed to do all my conversions successfully.

Can someone post the command line they used to convert Bibles to theWord from MyBible? Sure would appreciate that!

java -jar BibleMultiConverter.jar MyBibleZone input_file_name TheWord output_file_name

input_file_name = full name + extension
output_file_name = name without extension (ot, nt or ont will be added automatically)

Happy good day.

I also have modules that I'd like to convert from MyBible ("SQLite3" and "SQLite3.search" format) to TheWord (ont), or even MySword.

According to this:

and

I can see this software works, thank you therapon and WJSwanepoel.

But I have no idea how that software works.

Is there anyone here who can give me some assistance in how to do this?
Thank you very much.

I want to Convert the MyBible files MyFile.SQLite3 and MyFile.SQLite3.search to TheWord Format.

I'm using Windows 10, 64 bit.
I've downloaded the latest JavaSetup from java.com and installed it.

I went to Control Panel > Edit Environment Variable,
Under User Variables I selected Path > Edit.
I've added C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_131\bin
at the end of the path (which is my current java path).

I've downloaded BibleMultiConverter-0.0.5.zip from https://github.com/schierlm/BibleMultiC ... r/releases.
I created the directory C:\BC
I've unzipped BibleMultiConverter-0.0.5.zip to C:\BC
(I've also unsipped it to C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_131\)
I've copied MyFile.SQLite3 and MyFile.SQLite3.search to C:\BC

I opened Command Prompt.
then cd\BC (to ensure the program finds MyFile.SQLite3 and MyFile.SQLite3.search)

Then I typed:
java -jar BibleMultiConverter.jar MyBibleZone MyFile.SQLite3 TheWord MyFileW
java -jar BibleMultiConverter.jar MyBibleZone MyFile.SQLite3.search TheWord MyFileW

It didn't work. Nothing was converted.
All I got was the same info I get when I just type "java -jar BibleMultiConverter.jar".

What am I doing wrong? or
What should I do instead?

Thank you very much for your kind assistance.
