List of identifiers that calibre uses
Hi all,
Is there a list of identifiers that calibre supports/uses? I ran a 'calibredb list -f identifiers' command and here are the ones used in my library: amazon asin doi fwid hardcover isbn isbn-hardcover isbn-paperback isbn-trade isbn13-hardcover isbn13-paperback isbn13-trade mobi-asin paperback Are all of these used for fetching metadata from online sources? Thanks John |

metadata download plugins can define their own identifiers. So there is no central list.

Identifiers (manual entry) is almost free-for-all the way Kovid did it.
Identifier-catagory:value eg Asile:23G4 (Asile 23 Bay G Shelf 4 ) So I find myself over in the Tag Browser and doing house keeping (purging those I care less about / or were garbage) in the Identifiers section |
