[GUI Plugin] FanFicFare

[veviara]

Thank you! That was exactly what I was looking for!

I'm unfamiliar with test versions of plugins and sadly do not have the time to look into it until sunday, but the workaround works like a charm.

Not many people using the log feature would explain why I had such a hard time googling the answers to my questions! I think it's a really nice detail, and I'm very excited to see the logs on my fics evolve.

You just need to get it from the second post of the thread. Download the zip file -> open Calibre -> go to Preferences -> under Advanced go to Plugins -> choose Load plugin from file -> look for the zip file you downloaded and select it.

When I use use_meta_keywords: true under [literotica.com] combined with either include_subject_tags: eroticatags or extra_subject_tags: eroticatags to download multi-chapter stories from literotica it only applies the tags from the first chapter to Tags.

All the chapter tags are listed in the Saved Metadata column though, so when I use "Update Calibre Metadata from Saved Metadata Column", it applies all the tags from all chapters to Tags correctly.

I have an admittedly overly complicated personal.ini, so to validate, I created a new test library and stripped my personal.ini down to just the following (copied from plugin settings verbatim). It made no difference and the behavior was unchanged.

[defaults]
is_adult:true

[literotica.com]
include_subject_tags: eroticatags
use_meta_keywords: true

Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding the expected behavior of include_subject_tags or use_meta_keywords? If it's a bug, I'll get a bug report written up.

edit to add: To test I grabbed a new story I'd never downloaded before that had different tags in each chapter, REMOVED, but this behavior applies to any multi-chapter story on literotica.

...

As a general rule, FFF expects all the metadata info to be collected during the initial extractChapterUrlsAndMetadata(). I'm honestly a bit surprised I allowed adding metadata from getChapterText().

This version works during full-story downloading.

But be aware: During update, only the tags on the chapters downloaded that time will be included. So be sure you have the 'Keep Existing Tags when Updating Metadata?' checkbox set if you plan to do updates.

I just downloaded the latest test version, but the adapter_literotica.py file has a 2/5/2024 10:36 AM time stamp, which would appear to match the earlier change to it. I haven't tested it yet, but was wondering if you forget to include the new one?

Nothing in adapter_literotica changed since then.

If you're referring to Set book[tags] after writeStory for literotica, that only changes calibre-plugin/jobs.py.

Ah, my mistake. Thanks for the explanation and all the work you do!

I'm trying to use replace_metadata to change the title for a specific work but I'm having issues when using parentheses in the replace string.

I started with

[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/853195/]
replace_metadata:
 title=>^.*$=>Here Comes The New Boss - SB

Which works fine and gives this as the title but that's not the final output I want.

When I try to add text within parentheses to the replace string like this:

[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/853195/]
replace_metadata:
 title=>^.*$=>Here Comes The New Boss (Nothing Like The Old Boss) - SB

I get the following:


Escaping the parentheses like so:

title=>^.*$=>Here Comes The New Boss \(Nothing Like The Old Boss\) - SB

just adds a space and a backslash before "SB"

I'd appreciate any help/advice you can give me, as I'm kinda stumped at this point.

If it’s anything like ampersand needing & try their HTML entity code instead. So ( and )

This is an artifact of the tagsfromtitles processing in defaults.ini [base_xenforoforum] section. It looks for whatever is in () in the title and adds it to category instead.

However, if you use add_to_replace_metadata instead of replace_metadata, it will work because add_to_ is added afterwards instead.

That doesn't work, sorry.

[culytera]

Whoops, didn’t know that!

Just so you know, I use it as well. I haven't customized it so it just runs on defaults though.

Side note, it doesn't work on QQ. My theory is because it doesn't parse in-progress/completed or what not for QQ it doesn't create a log page for a story that isn't 'in-progress'/'ongoing' or etc. No biggie, just something I've noticed.

Good to know, thanks.

That sounds like you have include_logpage: smart set:

## include a Update Log page before the story text.  If 'true', the
## log will be updated each time the epub is and all the metadata
## fields that have changed since the last update (typically
## dateUpdated,numChapters,numWords at a minimum) will be shown.
## Great for tracking when chapters came out and when the description,
## etc changed.
include_logpage: false
## If set to 'smart', logpage will only be included if the story is
## status:In-Progress or already had a logpage.  That way you don't
## end up with Completed stories that have just one logpage entry.
#include_logpage: smart

Personally, I use this to turn it on all the time for forum sites:

[epub]
include_logpage: smart

[base_xenforoforum:epub]
include_logpage: true

Thanks for that, it works now!
