They've then added enhancements into response to user requests,
The EPUB/MOBI catalogue generator is a built-in plugin, so you could download it from github, clone it into say YourCatalog, and then modify it to meet your requirements. You would install YourCatalog via
Preferences->Plugins->Install plugin from file. It's up to you to decide if you want to make it publicly available, many people have private PI's that they've hacked from existing PIs. There are some sticky threads at the top of the Plugins subforum with guidelines in developing Plugins.
Another possibility is to create a CSV catalogue, import it into a word processing table and develop some 'macros' to a) get the data organised (column order and row sort) and b) format the data. And then convert the document to a format suitable for your device. If you're familiar and comfortable with say Word or Writer, you could use this approach as a prototyping tool, prior to developing YourCatalog PI.
