Calibre Regular Expressions and Authors With More Than One Book
Hello:
I'm trying to check authors on my (rather extensive) Calibre library, and I'd like to know what the regular expression would be to list/filter/show ebooks of authors that have more than one ebook (listed on the library, that is). Awaiting your kind reply, [INCANUS] |

A search can look for a count
Code:
Dates and numeric fields support the relational operators = (equals), > (greater than), >= (greater than or equal to), < (less than), <= (less than or equal to), and != (not equal to). Rating fields are considered to be numeric. For example, the search rating:>=3 will find all books rated 3 or higher. You can search for the number of items in multiple-valued fields such as tags. These searches begin with the character #, then use the same syntax as numeric fields. For example, to find all books with more than 4 tags use tags:#>4. To find all books with exactly 10 tags use tags:#=10. Series indices are searchable. For the standard series, the search name is ‘series_index’. For custom series columns, use the column search name followed by _index. For example, to search the indices for a custom series column named #my_series, you would use the search name #my_series_index. Series indices are numbers, so you can use the relational operators described above. https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/gui...arch-interface |
