but I don't know how to do it with openlibrary

OL625575W

i tried write: openlibrary:OL625575W or openlibraryorg:OL625575W
but not works

calibre, version 8.16.2

I don't use OpenLibrary, and from what I've seen of the default Calibre plugin, it doesn't collect much data. I've created a plugin, which I won't be supporting in case any information on the OpenLibrary website changes. The only requirement is that it uses the identifier openlibrary:OL25898225M to collect the data. I hope you find it useful. Add it as a metadata download plugin.

I tried deleting the database plugin, I also disabled all other plugins but it still gives me the same error.

Go to Calibre Portable\Calibre\plugins and delete any files related to OpenLibraryPlus. Try this version.

Thanks
Now it works only the _init_ file had the ending "txt", not "py" so I had to change it
when downloading metadata it doesn't download the cover and publication date

if someone else wants to use it, downloading metadata by ISBN doesn't work

[herrtod]

I tried to edit it but now it won't download the author or the image. But downloading by ISBN works and it downloads the publication date.

Remember your request from the first thread? It was to be able to use OpenLibrary identifiers because you didn't have ISBNs.

Now you're also asking for the plugin that worked with OpenLibrary identifiers to work with ISBNs.

Well, here's the latest example that works with both ISBNs and OpenLibrary identifiers.

I don't want it to work with ISBN identifiers, when I tried to fix the plugin to download covers, I managed to do it even though it wasn't my intention, but maybe it will help someone else.... I need it to download basic information such as author, publication date, cover, etc. when I add a book with the openlibrary style:OL37046802M

Try https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=371405. It already downloads covers, searches by ISBN and OpenLibrary identifier style:OL37046802M. Upcoming updates: characters and locations
