I have in my calibre UI three libraries I switch between (CalibreMain, CalibreWork and CalibreTest).

When I import a book via

Code:

calibredb --with-library http://localhost:8282/  add ...

the item always is added to CalibreMain. Now I would like to give the --with-library option the library ID of, say, CalibreTest. How can I find its ID?

After reading the manual I tried

Code:

calibredb --with-library http://localhost:8282/#- list

but this does not give me any library IDs.

I probably do something wrong... But what's the correct way?
