I'm not quite certain what it is you want to do. If your current books are PDFs, converting them to ePubs is going to be error-prone. The Meta-data will be the least of your worries!

However, I beleive that it might be possible to configure calibre to extract metadata from imported file names.

But if you want to create your own ePubs using a tool that you write, you're going to need to delve into the specifics of the ePub format, and the best place is the idpf web site, since they originated the specifications for ePub.
