NAME¶

calibredb - calibredb

calibredb komento [valinnat] [arvot]

calibredb is the command line interface to the calibre database. It has several sub-commands, documented below.

calibredb can be used to manipulate either a calibre database specified by path or a calibre Content server running either on the local machine or over the internet. You can start a calibre Content server using either the calibre-server program or in the main calibre program click Connect/share  →  Start Content server. Since calibredb can make changes to your calibre libraries, you must setup authentication on the server first. There are two ways to do that:

To connect to a running Content server, pass the URL of the server to the --with-library option, see the documentation of that option for details and examples.

CLONE¶

Voit käyttää valitsinta 'all' kaikkien kirjojen metatietojen päivittämiseen. Voit myös osoittaa useita kirjoja id:illä ja id-väleillä osoitettuna väliviivoilla.
