To answer my own question, I just missed this on the first read through the tutorial:
Quote:
It can get tiresome to keep re-adding a plugin to calibre to test small changes. The plugin zip files are stored in the calibre config directory in plugins/ (goto Preferences->Misc and click open config directory to see the config directory).
Once you’ve located the zip file of your plugin you can then directly update it with your changes instead of re-adding it each time. To do so from the command line, in the directory that contains your plugin source code, use:
zip -R /path/to/plugin/zip/file.zip *
This will update all changed files. It relies on the freely available zip command line tool. Note that you should quit calibre before running this command.
