@ChipAHoy: You don't have to either download it from this forum thread or unzip it once download.
You can install directly from Calibre by doing: 1) Right-click on "Preferences" icon 2) Choose "Get plugins to enhance Calibre" 3) Find "X-Ray Creator", click on "Install" button 4) Restart Calibre when offered to do so. |

Found this nifty plugin today but couldn't get it working. I got the following error below. Calibre downloaded all the metadata for this file but it seems I'm getting the out of index error. I just downloaded the plugin today and tried running the auto update without effect. Would love suggestions.
Thanks! PS: Do I need to manually run the 'get metadata' form the edit metadata contextual menu before creating the xray files? thanks! Code:

Hi. First, nice work. Second, I have one doubt that could be written in the first post. I read in spanish, so when taking XRay creator goodreads url, should I give it the spanish or english page of the book? Both ways I only get random highlighted phrases on the kindle

KFX is superior to AZW3, such as typesetting and pageflip. Can we have support for this format? (KFX output plugin here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=272407) |

Yeah, I'll do it when I have time. I've been busy with personal stuff lately. If anyone here wants to do the work for it and then do a pull request, I'll be happy to review it.

Turns out that this is actually harder than it seems. Looks like we can't use any built-in functions to extract the text from the book. After looking into a bit further, I've noticed Kindle Previewer 3 doesn't support KFX (so the library likely doesn't have a way to read the format) and KFX Output can't convert from KFX to other formats (so they likely also don't have a way to do that). This just got a lot harder. I'm not sure I can extract the text from the book. Will keep trying but I can't make any promises. Not going to lie -- it's looking pretty unlikely right now.

Hi, so I seem to have an issue with the plugin. When I set everything up for a book, finding the proper ASIN off Goodreads and what not, the X-Ray file is compiled but when I use it on my Kindle it has the list of characters although it just says that no description could be found on Goodreads.
Is this a plugin issue or an issue with there simply, really being no description? The book in question is Abaddon's Gate, The Expanse. Using either of these ASINs (with corresponding Goodreads page) yield the same result with no character descriptions. ASINs with Goodreads links: B009SQ018I (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...abaddon-s-gate) or B00A2DZMYE (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...abaddon-s-gate) Thanks.

@SnoutBaron, @szarroug3: So, what are you doing about this? The data on Goodreads has to come from somewhere. And one of the sources is the members of Goodreads. If the books you have are missing the data you need, you can add it and help others.
