Ajax Endpoint usage?
I am trying to use the endpoints listed in https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...re/srv/ajax.py and I seem to not be using them correctly or am missing something.
Here are the URLs I am hitting and their response: http://<calibre_ip>:8080/ajax/books - I get "must specify some ids." I would expect a list of books returned when if I do not pass a list of IDs. http://<calibre_ip>:8080/ajax/book/123 - I get the book details for book 123 Any suggestion on how to get a list of books? Some additional notes/suggestions: when hitting http://<calibre_ip>:8080/ajax/categories - if an entry is not a category, then do not return a URL since the URL results in a 404. Otherwise, allow access to non-categories such as "Newest" and "All Books". Thanks! Jeff |

As the documentation says, you need:
/ajax/books?ids=1,2,3 If you want a list of all ids in the library use /ajax/search the result is paginated and sorted according to any field you want (see the docs). All URLs in /ajax/categories work, including the ones for newest and all books. |

Oh and I should note that the in-progress server re-write allows you to specify
/ajax/books?ids=all to get all ids so you dont have to use search -- which can be a little unintuitive. |
