[Metadata Source Plugin] Kobo Metadata

[NotSimone]

Grabs metadata from the Kobo store

Features

• Can grab title, author, synopsis, publisher, published date, series, and tags
• Can fetch high res cover art
• Blacklist tags / terms in the title
• Select from different countries

Note that Kobo seems to do a pretty bad job of tagging series properly - not much I can do about that

Troubleshooting

If the plugin is having trouble picking up the right book, you can try either:

• Opening the book details and using the "Edit Metadata Individually" button while turning the "Number of matches to fetch" setting up.
• Adding the isbn to the "Ids" field

If you are getting 503 errors, leave it alone and try again tomorrow. The cloudflare bot protection seems to have some kind of lockout mechanism so give it some time to reset.

Feel free to make a PR if you're into that

davidfor's original plugin is working. How is your different?

What would make your plugin different is to be able to set the country.

[NotSimone]

The other party trick it has is to blacklist certain tags or words in the title - useful when there are different media formats of the same series floating around. But otherwise, the existing plugin was a bit janky from all the different people piling on and adding their own fixes every time it stopped working - seemed like a decent opportunity to start clean and use some of the more modern python features

The behaviour is also different for cover images. The Kobo Books plugin will fit the cover image to the maximum allowed by calibre so if calibre is set to allow a 2400x3600 maximum cover image size and the downloaded image was 1650x2200, the image returned will be 2400x3200. The Kobo Metadata plugin would give the original 1650x2200 image. See The maximum width and height for covers saved in the calibre library tweak.

Aha I missed this one - easy enough to add. Strangely enough Kobo seems to only look at the width and not the height before matching aspect ratio even though it takes height as part of the url.

If this is not a beta version, the attachment in the first post needs to be replaced with this one and this attachment removed.

Also, the first post should be reformatted so calibre picks it up and adds it to the list.

[JSWolf]

I've tried both versions and neither version works for me. I get no covers downloaded. I've tried both USA and UK.

Here is the debug log for the latest version with calibre 6.25. It looks like maybe something has changed at Kobo.

A #1 New York Times Bestseller and New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice!
\n
Legendary storyteller Stephen King goes into the deepest well of his imagination in this spellbinding novel about a seventeen-year-old boy who inherits the keys to a parallel world where good and evil are at war, and the stakes could not be higher—for that world or ours.
\n
Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was ten, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself—and his dad. When Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from it.
\n
Charlie starts doing jobs for Mr. Bowditch and loses his heart to Radar. Then, when Bowditch dies, he leaves Charlie a cassette tape telling a story no one would believe. What Bowditch knows, and has kept secret all his long life, is that inside the shed is a portal to another world.
\n
Magnificent, terrifying, and “spellbinding…packed with glorious flights of imagination and characteristic tenderness about childhood, Fairy Tale is vintage King at his finest” (Esquire).
\n
“Good, evil, a kingdom to save, monsters to slay—these are the stuff that page-turners are made from.” —Laura Miller, Slate

I agree. I do want the original image. But for now, I get no image.

[JSWolf]

Why is Kobo Metadata showing up in identifiers (in Book details)? It should not be there.

Sorry first time writing a Calibre plugin (and posting on this forum!). How do I edit a post?

Ahh I never tried downloading only covers so I never ran into this when testing. Its an issue related to picking up new cover urls that haven't been cached yet by the metadata download. I've fixed it and attached an updated version this reply.

I agree here but tbh I have no idea how to get the original image from Kobo. Personally I think that whatever re-scaling algorithm they're using seems pretty good to my (not particularly discerning) eyes. If you ever figure it out, I'm happy to whack it in.

It looks like this happens with all metadata fetchers as long as it can generate a url from its identifier. Since I'm using the isbn as the identifier, the link will appear as long as you have the isbn set.

You go to the Lounge and post some replies to bump your post count - a dozen is usually enough.

Downloading covers is now working.

I really like being able to change between US and UK for downloading covers.

Thanks.

[DNSB]

I've attached an image to show what I meant about the cover size. I reverted to the original version of KoboMetadata where the image was not resized on download for this test. The Kobo Books' downloaded cover (2460x3750) has been automatically resized to fit the maximum cover size in calibre while the Kobo Metadata's cover (1650x2514) has not been resized. With the new version, both plugins show the same cover size.

[JSWolf]

I too do not want the resided cover.
