CustomIndexRecipe
Are there any examples using the CustomIndexRecipe class?
I have heaps of web content that I've downloaded using the Firefox Scrapbook plug-in and I want to use Calibre's ebook-convert command line tool to mass-edit them but can't quite figure out how to use CustomIndexRecipe.custom_index() There don't seem to be any examples of this anywhere? Thanks |

You dont really need customindex for this. Just use basicnewsrecipe and override parse_index, return file:// URLs and you should be fine, though the backwards OS might give you a bit of trouble with filepath URLs

Silly Questions
You were right about filepath URLs being tricky. I'm not a python programmer, so I just hack around from examples until I can make them work.
I found it was easier to just access the file system by using the web server locally on my Mac. [silly questions deleted ... answered!] Muchas Gracias! Last edited by EnergyLens; 03-26-2010 at 10:32 AM. |
