I have a question, how do you check for a Book jacket? During ePub to ePub conversions calibre checks for a properly implemented jacket and if found it removes the old book jacket and replaces it with the new book jacket. This update was in calibre 0.6.50.
Quote:
Does your QA check ever identify books converted prior to 0.6.50 as having a book jacket? It seems you should be able to use the code Kovid uses to identify proper book jackets. This was really my motivation in wanting to know when a book was created. Maybe a QA check ePubs created before version 0.x.xx would work. Or maybe your QA check for a book jacket already takes this into account. Last edited by DoctorOhh; 04-12-2011 at 09:20 PM. |

I'm afraid Calibre 0.6.50 is the equivalent of being before I was born

EDIT: At purely a guess I would say perhaps in 0.6.50 they added the <meta> tag, which is why the comment says it will only work from that version onwards. In which case my check won't pickup such jackets in books either. That is speculation but is what I would infer from the description you posted if I had written the code, but I am only guessing.

Yes, the <meta> tag is what is used to identify jackets.

Regardless of the name of the file, that explains what I'm seeing. Thanks.

Thanks Walt, I've changed the logic to cater for that jacket naming in the EPUB. I will include it in the next release shortly.

Howdy Kiwidude:
Me again. A question for you in the check ISBN section, I have several books that are either only available as an ebook or I do not have an ISBN for them, instead I have Amazon's ASIN. Is there a way to avoid these books failing during the ISBN check? Also, I have some books that I created myself, therefore they do not have an ISBN either, I would like to have these books filtered out also. What would you suggest is the best way of going about doing this?? Nyn |

Check ISBN only checks books that have a value in the ISBN, so for your own books you should not have anything in that field?
As for ASIN, maybe Kovid will correct me if wrong but I believe that once the new metadata API is finished in Calibre 0.8 that ASIN will be retrieved and stored in a separate ASIN identifier field. So Quality Check will be correct in flagging ASIN values that are in ISBN as these should be "moved" into the new proper place. |

Thank you, once again you set me on the right path. I will remove the ISBN numbers from my books and just use a saved search to filter out the ASIN books for now.

Is it possible to add a feature to search for books without summaries? For books with no comments?

You don't need the plugin to do that:
