Metadata search for titles. #45
Comments
Hey, thank you for the request. Librum is currently just parsing the metadata from the file provided, but we are definitely planning to use an api for querying more data about books like the ISBN, better covers and similar metadata. We will need to look for metadata providers first and choose one that is feature rich, but also affordable, because we do not have the financial resources to pay a lot for these APIs at the moment. Our focus will first be on getting more fundamental features ready for now. After that, and if it will be financially possible (via for example more donations) we will automate metadata fetching so that everyone automatically gets the best data right away. |
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Not a problem as such, I'm just lazy... Editing meta data is a pain for sure finding cover images is a pain.
Describe the solution you'd like
Would it be possible to pull metadata from sources like ISBNdb, Bowker, openlibrary and Google books?
Describe alternatives you've considered
I guess the metadata and cover search features in calibre?
