I could use some advice.

I'm working on a plugin to merge epubs from existing books into a new epub in a new book. At the end, I'd like the plugin to automatically pop the 'Edit Metadata' dialog for the newly created book.

Near as I can tell, I have to get the new book selected in the main book list, then invoke edit_metadata on the metadata action. But I've had no luck figuring out how to select a row from the book_id.

book_id = db.create_book_entry(mi,add_duplicates=True)
# ...
self.gui.library_view.model().books_added(1)

self.gui.library_view.selectionModel().clearSelection()                
self.gui.library_view.selectionModel().select(???)

self.gui.iactions['Edit Metadata'].edit_metadata(False)

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jim
