Calibre auto add and fetch ebook data?

Hi,

I know about how to set up Calibre to auto-add a book from a folder, but is there a way for Calibre to also automatically fetch/download the metadata for the book once it has been auto-added to the library? Maybe perhaps combining it with the command line fetch-ebook-metadata?

Thanks.

As far I know you can't but I can be wrong.

Once you have added the ebooks to the library simply select them all and press CTRç+D and you can start fetching metadata from internet.

Yeah I know about that, but was wondering if it could just do it with just a command line or something.
