What im trying to do:
Hiya total beginner here so if im being thick don't hesitate to point it out! Really basic question but is there a cli command that can take a book id that will email a book with all its metadata. The only thing i can figure out is export it and then email it as an attachment but that seems needlessly convoluted. Is there a simple command to do this? Thanks, sorry if im being stupid Last edited by BetterRed; 08-03-2024 at 05:11 AM. Reason: thumbnail an OVERSIZE image |

See the calibre user manual it documents all the cli commands available You will need to use a combination of calibredb and calibre-smtp

Thanks for your reply but unless I’m reading the documentation wrong, I would need to export it first? I just wondered if there was a more direct method as there is in the gui?

calibredb export && calibre-smtp && rm exported file
The point of CLI tools is to provide building blocks that you can glue together with scripts, not to provide end to end solutions for every possible use case. Last edited by kovidgoyal; 08-05-2024 at 11:54 PM. |
