I am getting the following error with the new plugin:
Code:
ERROR: ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>UnboundLocalError</b>:local variable 'minimum' referenced before assignment Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 623, in create_kindle_collections File "<string>", line 296, in create_kindle_collections_main File "<string>", line 234, in print_collection_report UnboundLocalError: local variable 'minimum' referenced before assignment |

2 reasons for this - one is an error in the code, the other is that its likely you created some tweaks and you need to update them to the new format as shown in the first post. I'll post a fix for this, but if you update your tweaks and restart it should work.

I took the tweaks from the first page and just changed it, here are my tweaks:
Code:
################################################ # Create Kindle Collections Plugin tweaks # # Calibre column names to include in collections, text to prepend for sorting, and # minimum number of books needed for a column before creating a collection create_kindle_collections_usecolumns = { "tags": [ "- ", 1 ] } # Collection names or patterns to ignore (e.g. [ "ignorethis", ".*Ignore.*" ] create_kindle_collections_ignore = [ ] #################################################### |

Version 1.1.1 posted to fix the minimum bug and to set the collections so that they initially appear at the end when sorting By Most Recent.

Meme: ![]() Your plugin rocks. Just ran the first test using 1.1. Only two Calibre-managed books didn't go into collections. My usual "problem files" processed fine. (The Kindle dictionaries and Active Content files aren't managed by Calibre so for this test they don't count.) Yay! Affected books were _The Beautiful and Damned_ and _Against the Tide_. TB&D came from MobileRead and AtT came from Baen, so not sure what the issue is. I will look into it some more, and also run a few more tests using special characters and see what happens. I just wanted to post this to let you know that this is working amazingly well for me. Test details: Used user column ("collect")to create 6 collections; over 500 books. Awesomeness happened. |

This is what worked for me.
Code:
################################################ # Create Kindle Collections Plugin tweaks # # Calibre column names to include in collections, text to prepend for sorting, and # minimum number of books needed for a column before creating a collection create_kindle_collections_usecolumns = { "series": [ "_ ", 500 ], "tags": [ "", 1 ] } # Collection names or patterns to ignore (e.g. [ "ignorethis", ".*Ignore.*" ] create_kindle_collections_ignore = [ ] #################################################### |

Ran another test using tags. I have a few "administrative" tags I don't want collections for, so I added "nocollect" to the end of those tag names. Also added Clippings file to Calibre for management. Tweaks as follows:

Your plugin has been a fantastic success for me. I haven't tried testing special characters to use as a sorting prefix yet, it will have to wait till tomorrow. And again, ![]() |

question on custom column & feedback
Help please.
"You can create collections based on your custom columns if they contain just a single word or number or a list of words like the tags column:" I've tried adding my custom column genre as a 4th line in tweaks, but the tweak app keeps telling me invalid when I add it, no problems until that line is added. tweak looks like this: ################################################ # Create Kindle Collections Plugin tweaks # # Calibre column names to include in collections, text to prepend for sorting, and # minimum number of books needed for a column before creating a collection create_kindle_collections_usecolumns = { "tags": [ "- ", 1 ], "series": [ "_ ", 2 ], "authors": [ "", 1 ] "genre": [ "__ ", 1 ] } # Collection names or patterns to ignore (e.g. [ "ignorethis", ".*Ignore.*" ] create_kindle_collections_ignore = [ ] ################################################## ## genre is a user-created custom column, setup is text, like tag column. I've tried the look-up name with & without the # - genre,#genre. get an invalid tweak. also tried a different custom column, read_status, same result in tweak. using calibre 7.43 fyi, all but apps & a handful of Baen books (looks like they just need their mobi format file updated from the error message) went into collections - best results I've had with any kindle collection manager so far (have about 3500 files on the k3). I love the simplicity of this app & that fact that I can use it as I work with calibre. Thanks! |

Looks like you need a "," at the end of the authors line. That's the problem with having to use code for customising at the moment... Last edited by meme; 05-16-2011 at 10:31 AM. |

The plugin can create a collection for any name found in the authors column, any series name found in the series column, any word(s) found in most columns. |

I had the same issue. I guess the header is corrupt or in a format the code can't understand. I just ran a convert Mobi to Mobi on the file in Calibre and resent it to the device and the plugin no longer gives me a warning and it shows up in a collection.
I assume you got a Warning dialog stating that the Mobi format was corrupt when running the plugin? |

Any idea why I would get this error after installing the plugin and attempting a restart?
Code:
Starting up... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 251, in initialize self.initialize_db() File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 231, in initialize_db self.initialize_db_stage2(db, None) File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 200, in initialize_db_stage2 self.start_gui() File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py", line 151, in start_gui main = Main(self.opts) File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/ui.py", line 102, in __init__ mod, cls = action.actual_plugin.split(':') AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split' I'm running v0.7.17, and no I can't upgrade to the latest version at the moment... |

Collections by only certain tags
This plugin looks very good to me. I have been thinking a lot of times how nice it would be to be able to manage collections from calibre. Now finally your plugin.
Great. Thanks for the efforts. I have about 400 Books and a multitude of tags. I usually download "social metadata" and keep the tags. I just add my own tags. Would it be possible to create collections only by certain tags from a list? (e.g. Non-fiction, Romance, Classic literature, Fantasy, …) and leave all other tags aside? imo tags are a lot easier to edit than custom columns, but i do tag about contents that i would not create my collections on. E.g. Arthur Conan Doyle, "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" i would tag as "crime" and "classical literature" but maybe also as "drugs" or even "drug abuse" This book should be in "crime" and "classical literature" but there shouldn't be any collections as "drugs" or "drug abuse". |
