Are there libraries or packages for creating .mobi files in a Java/Linux environment?

Question

I'm trying to find a solution that offers either a Java api for writing .mobi files for sending to a Kindle, or something that's scriptable given a Linux environment. I have text data in a MySQL database that I want to offer as Kindle-friendly content.

I'd like to hear what tools people have used for this that work reasonably well.

Answer 1

There are Linux versions of the KindleGen tool available from Amazon here.
