Adding books from command line

[chemi]

Hi, I am trying to perform a bulk import from command line. I am trying to import logical books, I mean, without a real file existing (this is something I can do from the UI).

This is the test I am doing:

calibredb add -a Chemi -t Sample -e

but nothing is added or viewed in Calibre.

Any help?

Thanks in advance,

Chemi.

Try the Import List Plugin
Makes what you are trying a snap

You have to make sure you are referring to the same library as is open in the GUI. Use the --with-library parameter to calibredb

Thanks, --library-path parameter did the trick.
I thought it should take the default if no parameter was used...
