Email to Kindle CLI

[tejt]

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

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?
