Could Calibre plugins support folders, not just ZIP files?
Calibre uses ZIP format for plugin management, which is not very convenient for debugging. Currently, I'm using
Code:
from calibre.rpdb import set_trace set_trace() On macOS, I found the plugin location at: /Users/***/Library/Preferences/calibre/plugins I'm wondering if it's possible to make Calibre support loading plugins directly from a folder. That way, I could edit the source code directly in that folder and debug more easily, without having to zip and reinstall the plugin each time. |
