[GUI Plugin] KOReader MD5

[CloudyMcFox]

Created this to fix not being able to match with KOReader Sync plugin. See posts in: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...=362706&page=4

KOReader identifies books by a partial MD5 hash of the file. If you want to sync reading progress, highlights, or other metadata between calibre and KOReader and you use the KOReader Sync calibre plugin it may need to match on md5 so your calibre entry has to have the same md5 KOReader uses. This plugin will fill in that column for KOReader sync to match.

Source code:

Releases:
https://github.com/CloudyMcFox/calib...r-md5/releases

To install in calibre:

1) Preferences->plugins->Load plugin from file and chose the downloaded zip.
Recommend you chose to "add to context menu for the book in the calibre library" at a minimum.

2) Restart Calibre

You can configure plugin settings by right clicking on any book-> KOReader MD5-> Configure Plugin... and choose the column that matches the KOReader Sync md5 column

To use: right click on a book -> KOReader MD5-> Compute hash for selected books

Thanks for this plugin, I'll try it out shortly.

But now I wonder: how did I manage to get data from KOReader into Calibre before with KOReaderSync? It was working until very recently :-?
