Hi.
Can I check with you guys if any recent Calibre updates have made the script (chaley's) in
post#552 to no longer work, or am I missing something in my workflow?
It used to work, but today the "complexseries" custom field didn't get populated after step#4 below. And the books I added today
are part of a series.
This is what I normally do when I add new books:
- add books to Calibre
- edit metadata fields
- quit calibre and run chaley's script
- file named "script.txt" and I run from terminal with following commands
Code:
cd /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS
./calibre-debug -e script.txt;
I did make the changes to the 2 lines (to my calibre library path and the actual column name for the complex field)
- restart calibre and hook up my Kobo Aura, and then send the newly added books to device
The change that happen today was I was prompted about a calibre update and I ran that and it seems to have remove the script from the MacOS path, so I just copied over the copy from my Docs. But the script didn't appear to have worked as the column didn't get populated. Is there an error log from Terminal I can check to see what actually happen when the script was triggered (there's no error message)
So, what did I miss or did wrongly?
I pretty much copy+pasted all the suggestions on this thread to make it work before, and edited it to how I wanted.
If someone could shed some light on how I can troubleshoot further? It'd be a great help...
ps: the last time it worked, according to my last added book was on Jun 29th.
