I believe KOReader doesn't actually store the last time you read a book. I have added a "Status modified date column", which is the last modified date of the metadata file. What happens If you use that?

"A “Date” column to store the date on which the book’s status was last modified. (This is probably the date on which you marked it as read." This documentation matches the behavior for me, it shows the date the Reading Status was changed, rather than the date the book was last viewed on the device. The modify date of the metadata file on the device filesystem DOES look like it contains the information we're after, so I think the approach you mentioned should work! I don't see anything in the plugin that reads or exposes it, did you forget to push/release the new code? Last edited by Hyphen-ated; 03-03-2022 at 02:59 AM. |

If anyone has any idea where to get a "last read" date from, please let me know. Or fork and change the code yourself |

This plugin is great. I think I am missing something though. What do I do with the synced data?
I would like to use it to sync the reading progress between devices. Read on my kindle with koreader, and read the same books on my computer with Calibre. Can the calibre viewer be configured to use the %_read_column synced from koreader? |

I was hoping to use this plugin to import my highlights into Calibre. Unfortunately the way it saves the imported highlights doesn't make reviewing the highlighted passages very enjoyable/useful to me... What would be ideal is if I could export the highlights as HTML from within KOReader, and then import that HTML into a custom column in Calibre, so it's formatted nicely. Is this possible?

Hey guys!
Thank you for this awesome plugin. Although, there seems to be a problem with my device: PocketBook Touch Lux 5. When I try to sync the data with calibre, nothing happens. No data gets synced, and I don't know what to do. My books are on my SD Card, maybe that's the problem? Anyone got a solution for that? Thank you. |

Hi harmtemolder. For the newer pocketbook devices a new driver is existing. Devices show up as Pocketbook632. It has some improvements compared to the standard pocketbook driver. Would it be possible to add this "device" to allow the use of your plugin?
Thank you for considering |

And FYI: it is the writer of a plugin that does the work to offer the plugin to the calibre community, with the implicit commitment to maintain it. "Zisoft" can do that or not, as s/he wishes. |

Zisoft was already contacted via Github. What else do you suggest me to do? ![]() |

EDIT: Or possibly I am misunderstanding you. If you are not asking to have the Zisoft driver added to calibre's plugin scheme then my answer is wrong. It isn't clear to me what you are asking for, but that doesn't matter if it is clear to other people. Last edited by chaley; 07-20-2022 at 06:21 AM. |

Can you add support for the Device type "USER_DEFINED"? I added it as a compatible device type in the plugin I downloaded and it seems to work just fine, capable of finding the metadata and syncing to Calibre.
On a different note, it seems that while Koreader sets the "Summary"=>"Status" metadata when you finish a book, it does not set any status metadata for when you have a book that is currently being read. I thought that something like this might work, but my very rudimentary knowledge of python prevents me from trying it myself: "if 'Summary'=>'Status' doesn't exist, and read progress is >0 and <1, then set 'Summary'=>'Status' to 'in-progress'". This logic would also mean that if Koreader does start setting an in-progress metadata, this plugin won't override it. |
