html=pypandoc.convert_file("corona.epub",'html',outputfile="corona1.html")
assert html==""

I'm tried to convert an epub file into HTML file but the output is only text HTML. there is no image in this file. how to convert HTML with image?

you could use:

$ unzip "corona.epub"

from your command line, and it will expand all the xhtml files inside the epub

import pypandoc
import os

os.environ.setdefault('PYPANDOC_PANDOC', '/opt/homebrew/bin/pandoc')


filepath = "<full path of your epub file...>"
pathname, filename = os.path.split(filepath)
targetfilename = 'index.html'


pypandoc.convert_file(filepath,
                  format='epub',
                  to='html5',
                  extra_args=[
                      '--read=epub',
                      f'--extract-media={pathname}',
                      '--wrap=none'
                  ],
                  encoding='utf-8',
                  outputfile=pathname + '/' + targetfilename,
                  filters=None,
                  verify_format=True
