Release v0-13-1 is out. Turns out I still had a few bugs in handling the author fields, as well as had forgotten to update the version in the plugin.
I also took a first shot at reducing the calls to the Comicvine API, but without much luck. PS: sometimes calibre gives a constraint error with too short authors name. I am checking on that and will release a fix asap. In the meantime, remove authors from the authors field starting with the shortest name until it stops complaining. |

Please consider attaching the plugin's zip file to your message as opposed to pointing to GitHub

Here is the zip for v0-13-1. It is working well for me - but suggestions and bug reports are welcome. Next release announcement I'll include the zip. |

since your fork is no longer python 2 compatibile you might want to add minimum_calibre_version = (5, 0, 0)
to the Comicvine plugin class. |

I'd like to add this plugin to the plugins list later, so I need to read a bit more here on the forums to see how. Will I need a new thread or is it possible to "take over" this one? |

I'm still using the original plugin, I'm still running v4.x of Calibre.
To your notes, if you specify the comicvine-author field, it should largely ignore title search (since it has the volume information) and looks for a number it can match to a issue. If you specify comicvine it usually ignores all fields since it has a exact issue to match off of. At least that's been my experience. I usually flag volume for ones where I don't get hits since most of them I'll already have an issue that has the volume field applied and can copy/paste faster. Quote:

Any idea how can I reach a moderator so that I can "take over" the first post?
For now I have only a couple of very minor updates, but wouldn't mind reformatting and updating first post so that this would show on the list of calibre's plugins. |

Version 0.13.4 released.
Optimised a little bit the queries. Changed user agent from the default python one, that is now blocked by comicvine API. |

Appreciating the updates to this plugin, makes things much easier than trying to scrape comic vine information using another tool and then import the metadata into Calibre.
Keep up the good work. |

Had a situation where I had to rebuild my laptop, so I went ahead and went with Calibre 5 and went with the new plugin.
Works great. Thanks. One general Calibre question I haven't been able to figure out. I'm thinking it would be easier to work with my rather massive comic library if I could "move" all of them from the current physical sort (they all currently get sorted in to "author" etc) to more of a "Imprint"/"Series"/"Issue # - Title" or something to that effect. Is there a way to do that through Calibre? I don't want to have to try to manually change like 50,000 comics. |
