You may want to take a look at @barsanuphe's "librariansync" collections builder/manager.

I write scripts myself, want to update my collections, I just want to auto refresh.

Check the lipc event ccat sends when it finishes its job. (not at home right now, can't spoon-feed it to you).

They are part of the Amazon firmware system installed on your Kindle.

ccat is written in Lua (you can read its source as text).
It is the collections database "middle-ware" (interface) code.

I think that lipc is also a mixture of script and compiled code.
It is a scripted-by-Amazon "middle-ware" interface to the Kernel's DBUS IPC and event systems.

Using lipc - lots of examples on this site. It is part of the Inter-Proccess Communications system.

For specific usage on refreshing the collections view, read the sources at the link to github on the page NiLuJe gave you the link to. The earliest versions of the source communicated with ccat directly.
(LibrarianSync is also a scripted application.)

Which is precisely why I suggested you look at how a working implementation handles it.

On account of it will have demonstrative code examples which do what you what, and all...

LibrarianSync does not update cc.db itself, but sends json info to http://localhost:9101/change which triggers the actual updating. My initial dabbling with cc.db itself proved to be unsatisfactory.

There you go. The K5 Wiki page is your new best friend if you still haven't looked into lipc.
