pip install for calibre

phil7578 · 11-01-2021, 08:22 AM

Team,

I reinstalled my Win10 system, Calibre 5.31.1, Python 3.9.4 and pip 21.3.1. All these are the last available versions.

I can't run my former python code where I use direct APIs like this:

Code:

from calibre.library import db
db = db(EPBDirNam).new_api
EC = db.all_book_ids()
J = set(EC)

because I'm unable to load the right Calibre package in the python environment. I've read the Calibre documentation, but didn't find examples where the right package is mentioned. Here is what I try with pip and the message I get:

Code:

E:\>python -m pip install calibre
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement calibre (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for calibre

What could be wrong? Many thanks in advance for your help.

Dear,
Thanks for the quick reaction. If I understand well, I can't execute my code from a normal Python program, but I'll *have to* run it from calibre-debug, which have its own python interpreter? I made my developments 2 years ago, so I don't remember that...
Thx.
