Hello,
I have created an EPUB that is part of a series. I have put
Code:
<meta content="Series Name" name="calibre:series" />
<meta content="1" name="calibre:series_index" />
in the content.opf file of the EPUB.
When I add the book, calibre correctly parses this data and it appears in the metadata. I tried to do the same with the creation date and the publication date but it doesn't work. I googled for calibre metadata but everytime I get explanations on how to use the metadata editor which is not what I want. I want to create an EPUB that can be added to the calibre library including the correct metadata.
I then downloaded the complete source code of calibre and found "calibre:series_index" in opf2.py. In that same file I found references to pubdate_path (which apparently uses a "date" tag) and timestamp.
I used the date tag and the timestamp tag using the dc and calibre namespaces, but every time I add the book, calibre insists on putting today's date in Date, Published and Modified.
Can someone please explain which metadata tags from the EPUB are processed by calibre and where I have to put them in the EPUB so that calibre can find them?
Thanks
