Previously (Making A \u201cBooks Read\u201d Page<\/a>) I had posted how I added info to the default Calibre Web<\/a> templates to add the Series and Pub date information so I could scrape it. Well, it’s gotten a bit more complex since then. Someone added a similar mod to the Github repository<\/a> which has not yet been incorporated. They didn’t add the pub dates, but did add the series to a few more pages so I thought I would restate my changes here for future reference.<\/p>\n

\/templates\/shelf.html<\/h3>\n

Add both series info and pub date for the python web scraping program<\/a> to access:<\/p>\n

{% if entry.series|length > 0 %}\n    <p class=\"series\">\n        {{_('Book')}} {{entry.series_index}} {{_('of')}} <a href=\"{{url_for('web.books_list', data='series',sort='abc', book_id=entry.series[0].id)}}\">{{entry.series[0].name}}<\/a>\n    <\/p>\n{% endif %}\n\n\n{% if entry.pubdate[:10] != '0101-01-01' %}\n    <p class=\"publishing-date\">{{entry.pubdate|formatdate}} <\/p>\n{% endif %}<\/code><\/pre>\n
Added around line 45 (just after the {% endif  %} for the author section). <\/p>\n
\/templates\/index.html<\/h3>\n
Add only series info just for aesthetics (note the code is from the proposed mod and is slightly different):<\/p>\n
        {% if entry.series.__len__() > 0 %}\n        <p class=\"series\">\n          <a href=\"{{url_for('web.books_list', data='series', sort='new', book_id=entry.series[0].id )}}\">\n            {{entry.series[0].name}}\n          <\/a> \n          ({{entry.series_index}})\n        <\/p>\n        {% endif %}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Added around line  193 111 (just after the {% endif  %} for the author section). (This might be 36… there seems to have been a change…)<\/del><\/p>\n
\/templates\/discover.html<\/h3>\n
        {% if entry.series.__len__() > 0 %}\n        <p class=\"series\">\n          <a href=\"{{url_for('web.books_list', data='series', sort='new', book_id=entry.series[0].id )}}\">\n            {{entry.series[0].name}}\n          <\/a> \n          ({{entry.series_index}})\n        <\/p>\n        {% endif %}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Added around line 36 (just after the {% endif  %} for the author section).<\/p>\n

I am trying to figure out a way to automate the mods if the main repository doesn’t decide to incorporate the changes but so far an elegant solution eludes me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
