Dat Card Catalogue
An aggregated card catalogue for many Calibre libraries (or any collections with a directory structure that is Creator/Creation/Files.ext).
Setup
Note: dat-cardcat requires node 6 or greater
# install npm dependencies npm install # run in development # this will watch dat-cardcat for any changes and instantly recompile # the library so that cli and other projects immediately receive updated code. npm run dev
While not published on NPM yet you can integrate this into other projects or make it available on the command line via npm link.
# in the directory of this module npm link # after which you can run the cli directly datcat# which should print out some info about the cli #or link it for use in other projects via cd <your/other/project> npm link dat-cardcat

# Import an already existing card catalogue datcat import-cat 96171cc0845174e7e3c73592479cd9ca8d4caf1d039e6f38a0c06f48dff88bd1 "South Asian Scholarship"# Check something out from it datcat checkout "Ackbar Abbas" "Hong Kong Culture and the Politics of Disappearance (58)"# Import a local directory to create a new cardcat datcat create-cat "/Path/To/Some/Calibre Library" "My Library"# query datcat query "hong kong"# List all authors datcat author list# List all authors and show title count datcat author -c list# List all authors beginning with a datcat author list a# Get titles for an author datcat author titles "Ackbar Abbas"
