ccsync (Calibre Collection Sync)

[sandman7920]

Hello,

This is my first attempt to create a KUAL extension.

https://github.com/sandman7920/ccsync

This extension is similar to "librariansync" but has no external dependencies (single executable).

Currently only generates collections from the Calibre plugin

Tested on PW5 (5.14.2) and KV 5.6.x

A new version is pushed into Git Hub. The new version supports Calibre Metadata

Calibre Metadata
For this method, there is no need to install any additional plugins in Calibre. When Send to Device is used, Calibre writes/updates the metadata.calibre file into your device, which is then used for collection creation.

Some customization can be made by editing extensions/ccsync/meta.ini

If tags in [general] section is set to 1, a collection per tag will be generated, the default value is 2 which means a tags map will be used.

One could customize collection creation from book tags (tags can be Created/Updated from Calibre). A tag_name -> Collection Name map can be set in [tags] section of the meta.ini file. One could Combine/Merge multiple tags into a single collection using this feature.
