Refreshing the calibre catalog when new books appear in the library folder
Hi,
I've installed calibre and calibre-web on debian. I normally add books using calibre on one of my Macs or PCs. The Calibre Library is in Dropbox, so when I add a book it is synced to the debian machine. But, the new book doesn't get added to the catalog unless I open calibre on the linux machine.
Calibre-web doesn't require that calibre-server be running and, in any case I'm never sure when calibre-server decides to refresh the catalog.
It would be very useful if the calibredb command had a refresh option to update the catalog from the library. Then I could cron that and have it run every hour or so.
I hope you agree that this would be useful.
Thank you,
Dan Essin
