Hi,
I'm trying to use CLI on Linux but it works only in the most simple version like this: calibre-debug --run-plugin EpubMerge *.epub If I try to put any option after EpubMerge it fails. I tried for example: calibre-debug --run-plugin EpubMerge -f *.epub or calibre-debug --run-plugin EpubMerge -o output.epub *.epub calibre-debug --run-plugin EpubMerge *.epub -o output.epub and it fails. Can you please advise what command use to merge all files in a directory with flatten TOC, setting the title and the output file name? Last edited by Serpico; 08-28-2016 at 04:50 AM. |

I don't see my exact issue here, but I'm new to the forum, so please excuse if it's been addressed!
The TOC's in the ebubs I'm merging are fine - pretty much how I want them. But when I merge them, all the sub-entries are lost, and there's just one entry for each book. I've experimented with the EpubMerge plugin config settings, to no avail. Here are a couple example files, if I do this right: http://downloads.30bird.com/xfer/samples.zip Calibre 2.65.1 EpubMerge 2.0.13 Last edited by Galileo7; 08-31-2016 at 11:05 PM. Reason: Bad links |

EpubMerge assumes if there's only one (top-level) TOC entry, that there effectively is no TOC and it can be left out in favor of just using the book only entry. Clearly, that's incorrect for your case. Nested TOCs weren't high on my radar when that part was written, and complete ebooks with only one top-level TOC entry are rather rare--the target use case for EpubMerge is more merging existing ebooks than creating new ones. I might have time to figure out a real fix tomorrow evening, but it could be as late as next week. In the mean time, you can step around the problem a couple different ways:

Excellent. I'll try those things. My epubs are generated by Oxygen from DITA XML, so I might be able to change the way the transform creates the TOC, now that I know what the problem is.
Thank you for taking the time to look at this! |

Okay, here's how this one works: If Insert Table of Contents entry for each title is ON:

Fantastic tool. But obviously I'm doing something wrong - why is it not generating a TOC for me at all? Each book has their own (they had it when they were single books), but there's no TOC for the anthology as a whole. The only configuration option I can see about it is the checkbox with the text 'Insert Table of Contents entry for each title?' and I have that checked - but still no TOC.

Can you post the epubs (or a couple of them) that have that problem? Or upload them somewhere and PM me the link? |

In any case, attached are a couple of the books I've merged and the epub I get when I merge them. Notice that both books have tables of contents, and they are shown in the resulting merged book, but there is no TOC for the anthology itself, showing both books as entries. |

Because I see exactly the TOC I expected to see in the merged EPUB you posted. I didn't merge them--I just looked inside the EPUBs you posted. The only thing I can thing of (other than you're using a different reader) is that you mean an in-line TOC in the pages of the EPUB instead of the meta-data TOC... |
