Ifyou must share the actual library, use a file syncing tool like DropBox or rsync instead of a networked drive. If you are using a file-syncing tool it is essential that you make sure that both calibre and the file syncing tool do not try to access the calibre library at the same time. In other words, do not run the file syncing tool and calibre at the same time.
What you could do is set disable the Watch for changes (share -> edit -> advanced -> scanning, and set the rescan interval something like 5 minutes or so). This will not totally prevent your conflict but reduces the file/folder change notifications from the filesystem being distributed back and fort.
Does anybody use Calibre as part of their knowledge management workflow? Curious to know how it fits in. I use it to manage e-books, but am wondering if it can do more than that for me, e.g. if it makes sense for archiving literature notes or anything like that.
I downloaded the calibre recently in order to use it as a manager for my digital library. At first I had sought this solution also with Mendeley or Zotero, but I understood the proposals of each program. Nowadays I have been studying the caliber a little more so that it is the place where I manage my library, since I usually do not read by computer, only on paper or when necessary in kindle. Reading on the pc is always an exception because of my vision issues.
Transpose all my digital books from the cloud to the coomputer and edit their metadata by caliber, as well as organize to always access the library through it, and no longer through the files themselves.
This is because, as I understand it, the caliber creates a copy of the files in its own folder for storing the files, so they would be saved and I can access the computer easily and quickly if I need to.
Use the zotero only as a reference manager, always creating from the projects and without the need to add the book / article physically, as these will already be organized by caliber. Thus, the zotero will remain only for the information of citations and bibliographies.
Just throwing this out there: There is now a Caliber plug-in for Obsidian. Read all about it here: GitHub - caronchen/obsidian-calibre-plugin: Allow you to access your calibre libraries and read books directly in Obsidian.
Hello to those who might still be using the Calibre plugin.
I need some direction for installing on Windows 10. The instructions with plugin are for those using Apple. I did manage to work through most of the directions BUT I hit standstill. When opening Obsidian and then the plugin icon in the ribbon it shows nothing. There is no access to Calibre shown.
Calibre in Obsidian714115 4.35 KB
Hi everyone. I just want to use obsidian to read my books in calibre library and do some quote and annotation. As my library is local, is there a way to realize this workflow without additional downloading?
I created the config view using the spectre template and it generates the view list and the stop list required to simulate. However, when I change the type of view between schematic and calibre the simulation results obtained using ADEXL are the same. I probed adding "calibre" to the view list in the config but it did not work.
I am sure that my calibre is correctly extracted because when I simulate the calibre view using ADEL and changing the environment and adding calibre, the simulation result is different than schematic.
It was due to a change in the design selected in the ADEXL. Once the Config is created is necessary to go to the ADEXL, make a right-click in the test, select the design and choose the change the schematic option for config.
Thanks for the clarification, I should have mentioned though that the connection fails over a local network, I have not configured my library to work over the internet. Im never sure whether HTTP or HTTPS is the right thing to use when typing in my details so apologies for the confusing language.
In my case I have calibre behind a nginx reverse proxy exposing a LetsEncrypt certificate, so I am pretty sure I am not running into the app transport security problem that you can get around by using the ip instead of the fully qualified domain name (since it is a reverse proxy I have to use the fqdn to access it). Since it is on the internet I am using a username/password authentication on it.
Any ideas for a viable workaround? I want to stick with Calibre as the hosting server as it allows me to track the origin of the files (via custom columns) as well to keep together the various different formats I have for some of my comics.
I also find it to be a Panels-specific issue. I connect to the calibre OPDS in other apps (like Marvin 3) and web through devices in my tailscale network just fine (without https and with credentials)
This is easier to set up and more functional. It might be interesting to add a place to copy and paste links that can go in Book Details based on the template set in the settings for this plugin. Automatic page properties would be a cool addition in the future as well, especially if they can pull data from custom columns
Hello! Thank you for creating this! I am trying to use the plugin but everytime I do i get an error that logseq cannot connect to calibre API and to make sure the content server is on. My content server is on, and when I change the content server link as suggested, i still get the same error or a simple fail error. What am I doing wrong?
OK. Great. But having never used Logseq, and all I want to do is take notes as I read a book, I cannot figure out how to open an epub book in Logseq. I installed the 2 plugins for Logseq and started the calibre server, but the behavior of Logseq does not look like it does in your GIFs/videos. Please advise.
Calibre is a cross-platform free and open-source suite of e-book software. Calibre supports organizing existing e-books into virtual libraries, displaying, editing, creating and converting e-books, as well as syncing e-books with a variety of e-readers. Editing books is supported for EPUB and AZW3 formats. Books in other formats like MOBI must first be converted to those formats, if they are to be edited. Calibre also has a large collection of community contributed plugins.[3]
On 31 October 2006, when Sony introduced its PRS-500 e-reader, Kovid Goyal started developing libprs500, aiming mainly to enable use of the PRS-500 formats on Linux.[4] With support from the MobileRead forums, Goyal reverse-engineered the proprietary Broad Band eBook (BBeB) file format. In 2008, the program, for which a graphical user interface was developed, was renamed "calibre", displayed in all lowercase.[5]
Calibre supports many file formats and reading devices. Most e-book formats can be edited, for example, by changing the font, font size, margins, and metadata, and by adding an auto-generated table of contents. Conversion and editing are easily applied to appropriately licensed digital books, but commercially purchased e-books may need to have digital rights management (DRM) restrictions removed. Calibre does not natively support DRM removal, but may enable DRM removal after installing plug-ins with such a function.[6][7]
Calibre enables users to sort and group e-books by metadata fields. Metadata can be pulled from many different sources, e.g., ISBNdb.com; online booksellers; and providers of free e-books and periodicals in the US and elsewhere, such as the Internet Archive, Munsey's Magazine, and Project Gutenberg; and social networking sites for readers, such as Goodreads and LibraryThing. It is possible to search the Calibre library by various fields, such as author, title, or keyword. Full text search is available from Calibre 6.0 onwards.[8]
E-books can be imported into the Calibre library, either by sideloading files manually or by wirelessly syncing an e-book reading device with the cloud storage service in which the Calibre library is backed up, or with the computer on which Calibre resides. Also, online content can be harvested and converted to e-books. This conversion is facilitated by so-called recipes, short programs written in a Python-based domain-specific language. E-books can then be exported to all supported reading devices via USB, Calibre's integrated mail server, or wirelessly. Mailing e-books enables, for example, sending personal documents to the Amazon Kindle family of e-readers and tablet computers.[9][10][11][12]
This can be accomplished via a web browser, if the host computer is running and the device and host computer share the same network; in this case, pushing harvested content from content sources is supported on a regular interval (called 'subscription').[citation needed] Also, if the Calibre library on the host computer is stored in a cloud service, such as Box.net, Google Drive, or Dropbox, then either the cloud service or a third-party app, such as Calibre Cloud or CalibreBox, can remotely access the library.[13][14][15][16][17]
Since version 1.15, released in December 2013, Calibre also contains an application to create and edit e-books directly, similar to the more full-featured editor tools of the Sigil application, but without the latter's WYSIWYG editing mode.[18]
As seen from the North Pole, a domed world map displays the beautifully decorated continents, miniature painted with the champlev enamel technique. Made in our Atelier des Mtiers Rares, the enamelling alone requires more than 20 hours of work. The pink gold structure is then skeletonized displaying the longitudes and latitudes of the world map and giving a glimpse into the ocean disc.
With its pure lines and refined proportions, the Master Grande Tradition case is a perfect foil for the complexity of the dial. Made of multiple components its complex case allows a mix of different surfaces finishes from micro-blasted, polished to satin-brushed.
The name of each city is set on a green opaline ring around the central dial, whereas outside the city ring the fixed concentric ring indicates 24-hours. Mimicking the rotation of Earth, the Universal Tourbillon embarks the World map and city ring into a complete 360-degree revolution in 24 hours, to indicate the time in each city.
