Aha! That's worked. I set minimum articles to 1 & it successfully pulled them down, created the ebook & marked as read with no exceptions.

Sorry if I threw you a red herring, guess I should have picked that up from the code I think it's right that no ebook is generated if there are not enough articles, but don't know if there's a way of doing that without throwing an exception though.

I was going to debug through it myself, but only got as far as setting up Eclipse & PyDev & no as far as finding how to import the calibre libraries into a stand alone project. (I'm usually a C#/Java fella)

Thanks!

Don't worry! I talked to the developer and he JUST put the feature into the newest version of calibre. I just got back from vacation so I will be putting in the feature soon!

Honestly the recipes are not that complex. You don't need to build the calibre development environment at all since they are so easily loaded into the production app. I only use an IDE since I happen to already develop everything else in it, my first mods to the plugin were just done in a standard text editor.

Version 1.2 is uploaded to github! Now with cleaner errors!
(Once the new version of Calibre gets pushed that is)

Is there a way of altering this recipe so it grabs the text directly? I want to Pocket articles from a subscription site, but when I do, they show in Calibre as a 'log in' page.

Directly from where?
Currently the plugin spawns a thin browser, pulls up Calibre and gets the text directly from Calibre's text mode. Since the login isn't stored in calibre it fails and throws a login. If I pulled from the page itself I would probably bang against the exact same issue.

I can't think of an easy solution for this but am open to suggestions and ideas.

I registered just to say Thank you! Your calibre recipe is great and it's almost the only way to get consistent results. I tried some other online services (kindle4rss, crofflr) but they seems unreliable to me.

Just one thing is missing from your recipe: images support.
I know you are working on it (https://github.com/tbunnyman/ReadItL...lugin/issues/2), just asking if there are news.

In my opinion images are far more important than the old-new order of articles if this is the blocking issue. Or at least you could make two different script for different user tastes. If your script with images support and new-old order is already working I offer to beta-test it (at the moment my Pocket reading list counts 150 articles so it will be a meaningful test).

This Pocket lack of kindle support is driving me crazy and I'm seriously thinking about moving to Readability which offers native Kindles support (but it lacks tagging and Android app seems poor).
What is holding me is mostly your very promising work based on Calibre: again, thank you very much.

Can you tell me where do I put my login details in the recipe in advanced mode (Calibre wouldn't let me switch to basic mode for recipes opened from files)?

ETA: Nevermind, I got it.

Thanks for the update to Pocket. What would I need to edit to reverse the order of the articles? I actually prefer newest first..

I didn't put an option to display newest to oldest. There is actually a few things you would have to change, both where it inserts pages and when it reverses the ritem's before iteration.

I'll put this on my list of things to do next week as a settable feature.

Thank you so much for the kind words! What has been holding me up is more Pocket's developer support than anything else. They have been holding onto a new version of the api (v3) that has been "coming soon" since the change to pocket. Supposedly this new v3 API gives all the nifty features from Pocket vs readitlater. I've asked on several different occasions to be on the exclusive v3 advance list but it seems I'm wait listed with everyone else. I've been slightly apathetic about attempting to pull in new features when they are going to change it all "soon" anyways.

The API script is more a traditional beta than a google style beta. I'd offer it but then it would eat your reading list and I would feel bad! (I actually have three pocket accounts for testing this and that)

Since I am going to be working on the master tree anyways I'll pull up my API branch, clean it up and post it for you to try and see if you like it. Someone els also posted a API based version elsewhere on the forums you might want to try.

Only getting a Table of Contents

When I try to download my articles from pocket on Calibre, I only get a table of contents and not the actual articles. Any tips for fixing?

Thanks!

I haven't added anything to Pocket in the last couple weeks for this recipe to fetch articles and I don't seem to have any older 'fetches' in Calibre to see when it last worked. Is it a problem with the recipe, Calibre, or RiL, Pocket, whatever you want to call it?
