Reference for all built-in template language functions¶

Here, we document all the built-in functions available in the calibre template language. Every function is implemented as a class in python and you can click the source links to see the source code, in case the documentation is insufficient. The functions are arranged in logical groups by type.

Alteração de maiúsculas/minúsculas ¶

capitalize ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinCapitalize[código fonte]¶

capitalize(value) – devolve o valor de value com a primeira letra em maísuculas e as restantes em minúsculas.

lowercase ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinLowercase[código fonte]¶

lowercase(value) – devolve o valor de value em minúsculas.

titlecase ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinTitlecase[código fonte]¶

titlecase(value) – devolve o valor de value no formato caixa de título.

uppercase ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinUppercase[código fonte]¶

uppercase(value) – devolve o valor de value em maísculas.

Aritmética ¶

add ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinAdd[código fonte]¶

add(x [,y]*) — devolve a soma dos seus argumentos.. Lança uma exceção se um argumento não for um número. Esta função pode, muitas vezes, ser substituída pelo operador +.

ceiling ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinCeiling[código fonte]¶

ceiling(value) — devolve o menor número inteiro que seja maior que ou igual a value. Devolve uma exceção se value não for um número.

divide ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinDivide[código fonte]¶

divide(x, y) — devolve x - y. Devolve uma exceção se x ou y não forem números. Esta função pode, muitas vezes, ser substituída pelo operador / .

floor ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFloor[código fonte]¶

floor(value) — devolve o maior número inteiro que seja menor que ou igual a value. Devolve uma exceção se value não for um número.

fractional_part ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFractionalPart[código fonte]¶

fractional_part(value) — devolve o valor existente depois da casa decimal. Por exemplo, fractional_part(3.14) devolve 0.14. Lança uma exceção caso value não seja um número.

mod ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinMod[código fonte]¶

mod(value, y) — devolve o floor do remanascente de value / y. Devolve uma exceção se value ou y não forem números.

multiply ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinMultiply[código fonte]¶

multiply(x [,y]*) – devolve o produto de seus argumentos. Devolve uma exceção se um argumento não for um número. Esta função pode, muitas vezes, ser substituída pelo operador *.

round ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinRound[código fonte]¶

round(value) — devolve o número inteiro mais próximo de value. Devolve uma exceção se value não for um número.

subtract ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSubtract[código fonte]¶

subtract(x, y) — devolve x - y. Devolve uma exceção se x ou y não forem números. Esta função pode, muitas vezes, ser substituída pelo operador - .

Booleano ¶

and ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinAnd[código fonte]¶

and(value [, value]*) – returns the string '1' if all values are not empty, otherwise returns the empty string. You can have as many values as you want. In most cases you can use the && operator instead of this function. One reason not to replace and() with && is when short-circuiting can change the results because of side effects. For example, and(a='',b=5) will always do both assignments, where the && operator won’t do the second.

not ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinNot[código fonte]¶

not(value) – devolve a string '1' se o valor estiver vazio, caso contrário, devolve a string vazia. Esta função geralmente pode ser substituída pelo operador unário NOT (!).

or ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinOr[código fonte]¶

or(value [, value]*) – returns the string '1' if any value is not empty, otherwise returns the empty string. You can have as many values as you want. This function can usually be replaced by the || operator. A reason it cannot be replaced is if short-circuiting will change the results because of side effects.

Formatação de valores ¶

finish_formatting ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFinishFormatting[código fonte]¶

finish_formatting(value, format, prefix, suffix) – apply the format, prefix, and suffix to the value in the same way as done in a template like {series_index:05.2f| - |- }. This function is provided to ease conversion of complex single-function- or template-program-mode templates to GPM Templates. For example, the following program produces the same output as the above template:

program: finish_formatting(field("series_index"), "05.2f", " - ", " - ")

Another example: for the template:

{series:re(([^\s])[^\s]+(\s|$),\1)}{series_index:0>2s| - | - }{title}

use:

program:
    strcat(
        re(field('series'), '([^\s])[^\s]+(\s|$)', '\1'),
        finish_formatting(field('series_index'), '0>2s', ' - ', ' - '),
        field('title')
    )

format_date ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFormatDate[código fonte]¶

format_date(value, format_string) – format the value, which must be a date string, using the format_string, returning a string. It is best if the date is in ISO format as using other date formats often causes errors because the actual date value cannot be unambiguously determined. Note that the format_date_field() function is both faster and more reliable.

The formatting codes are:

d : the day as number without a leading zero (1 to 31)
dd : the day as number with a leading zero (01 to 31)
ddd : the abbreviated localized day name (e.g. «Mon» to «Sun»)
dddd : the long localized day name (e.g. «Monday» to «Sunday»)
M : the month as number without a leading zero (1 to 12)
MM : the month as number with a leading zero (01 to 12)
MMM : the abbreviated localized month name (e.g. «Jan» to «Dec»)
MMMM : the long localized month name (e.g. «January» to «December»)
yy : the year as two digit number (00 to 99)
yyyy : the year as four digit number.
h : the hours without a leading 0 (0 to 11 or 0 to 23, depending on am/pm)
hh : the hours with a leading 0 (00 to 11 or 00 to 23, depending on am/pm)
m : the minutes without a leading 0 (0 to 59)
mm : the minutes with a leading 0 (00 to 59)
s : the seconds without a leading 0 (0 to 59)
ss : the seconds with a leading 0 (00 to 59)
ap : use a 12-hour clock instead of a 24-hour clock, with “ap” replaced by the lowercase localized string for am or pm
AP : use a 12-hour clock instead of a 24-hour clock, with “AP” replaced by the uppercase localized string for AM or PM
aP : use a 12-hour clock instead of a 24-hour clock, with “aP” replaced by the localized string for AM or PM
Ap : use a 12-hour clock instead of a 24-hour clock, with “Ap” replaced by the localized string for AM or PM
iso : the date with time and timezone. Must be the only format present
to_number : convert the date & time into a floating point number (a timestamp)
from_number : convert a floating point number (a timestamp) into an ISO-formatted date. If you want a different date format then add the desired formatting string after from_number and a colon (:). Example:
```
format_date(val, 'from_number:MMM dd yyyy')
```

You might get unexpected results if the date you are formatting contains localized month names, which can happen if you changed the date format to contain MMMM. Using format_date_field() avoids this problem.

format_date_field ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFormatDateField[código fonte]¶

format_date_field(field_name, format_string) – format the value in the field field_name, which must be the lookup name of a date field, either standard or custom. See format_date() for the formatting codes. This function is much faster than format_date() and should be used when you are formatting the value in a field (column). It is also more reliable because it works directly on the underlying date. It can’t be used for computed dates or dates in string variables. Examples:

format_date_field('pubdate', 'yyyy.MM.dd')
format_date_field('#date_read', 'MMM dd, yyyy')

format_number ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFormatNumber[código fonte]¶

format_number(value, template) – interprets the value as a number and formats that number using a Python formatting template such as {0:5.2f} or {0:,d} or ${0:5,.2f}. The formatting template must begin with {0: and end with } as in the above examples. Exception: you can leave off the leading «{0:» and trailing «}» if the format template contains only a format. See the Template Language and the Python documentation for more examples. Returns the empty string if formatting fails.

human_readable ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinHumanReadable[código fonte]¶

human_readable(v) — espera que o value seja um número e devolve uma sequência que representa esse número em KB, MB, GB, etc.

rating_to_stars ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinRatingToStars[código fonte]¶

rating_to_stars(value, use_half_stars) – Returns the value as string of star (★) characters. The value must be a number between 0 and 5. Set use_half_stars to 1 if you want half star characters for fractional numbers available with custom ratings columns.

Funções de URL ¶

encode_for_url ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinEncodeForURL[código fonte]¶

encode_for_url(value, use_plus) – returns the value encoded for use in a URL as specified by use_plus. The value is first URL-encoded. Next, if use_plus is 0 then spaces are replaced by '+' (plus) signs. If it is 1 then spaces are replaced by %20.

If you do not want the value to be encoding but to have spaces replaced then use the re() function, as in re($series, ' ', '%20')

See also the functions make_url(), make_url_extended() and query_string().

make_url ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinMakeUrl[código fonte]¶

make_url(path, [query_name, query_value]+) – this function is the easiest way to construct a query URL. It uses a path, the web site and page you want to query, and query_name, query_value pairs from which the query is built. In general, the query_value must be URL-encoded. With this function it is always encoded and spaces are always replaced with '+' signs.

At least one query_name, query_value pair must be provided.

Example: constructing a Wikipedia search URL for the author Niccolò Machiavelli:

make_url('https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php', 'search', 'Niccolò Machiavelli')

returns

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Niccol%C3%B2+Machiavelli

If you are writing a custom column book details URL template then use $item_name or field('item_name') to obtain the value of the field that was clicked on. Example: if Niccolò Machiavelli was clicked then you can construct the URL using:

make_url('https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php', 'search', $item_name)

See also the functions make_url_extended(), query_string() and encode_for_url().

make_url_extended ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinMakeUrlExtended[código fonte]¶

make_url_extended(...) – this function is similar to make_url() but gives you more control over the URL components. The components of a URL are

scheme:://authority/path?query string.

See Uniform Resource Locator on Wikipedia for more detail.

The function has two variants:

make_url_extended(scheme, authority, path, [query_name, query_value]+)

and

make_url_extended(scheme, authority, path, query_string)

This function returns a URL constructed from the scheme, authority, path, and either the query_string or a query string constructed from the query argument pairs. The authority can be empty, which is the case for calibre scheme URLs. You must supply either a query_string or at least one query_name, query_value pair. If you supply query_string and it is empty then the resulting URL will not have a query string section.

Example 1: constructing a Wikipedia search URL for the author Niccolò Machiavelli:

make_url_extended('https', 'en.wikipedia.org', '/w/index.php', 'search', 'Niccolò Machiavelli')

returns

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Niccol%C3%B2+Machiavelli

See the query_string() function for an example using make_url_extended() with a query_string.

If you are writing a custom column book details URL template then use $item_name or field('item_name') to obtain the value of the field that was clicked on. Example: if Niccolò Machiavelli was clicked on then you can construct the URL using :

make_url_extended('https', 'en.wikipedia.org', '/w/index.php', 'search', $item_name')

See also the functions make_url(), query_string() and encode_for_url().

query_string ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinQueryString[código fonte]¶

query_string([query_name, query_value, how_to_encode]+)– returns a URL query string constructed from the query_name, query_value, how_to_encode triads. A query string is a series of items where each item looks like query_name=query_value where query_value is URL-encoded as instructed. The query items are separated by '&' (ampersand) characters.

If how_to_encode is 0 then query_value is encoded and spaces are replaced with '+' (plus) signs. If how_to_encode is 1 then query_value is encoded with spaces replaced by %20. If how_to_encode is 2 then query_value is returned unchanged; no encoding is done and spaces are not replaced. If you want query_value not to be encoded but spaces to be replaced then use the re() function, as in re($series, ' ', '%20')

You use this function if you need specific control over how the parts of the query string are constructed. You could then use the resultingquery string in make_url_extended(), as in

make_url_extended(
       'https', 'your_host', 'your_path',
       query_string('encoded', 'Hendrik Bäßler', 0, 'unencoded', 'Hendrik Bäßler', 2))

giving you

https://your_host/your_path?encoded=Hendrik+B%C3%A4%C3%9Fler&unencoded=Hendrik Bäßler

You must have at least one query_name, query_value, how_to_encode triad, but can have as many as you wish.

The returned value is a URL query string with all the specified items, for example: name1=val1[&nameN=valN]*. Note that the '?' path / query string separator is not included in the returned result.

If you are writing a custom column book details URL template then use $item_name or field('item_name') to obtain the unencoded value of the field that was clicked. You also have item_value_quoted where the value is already encoded with plus signs replacing spaces, and item_value_no_plus where the value is already encoded with %20 replacing spaces.

See also the functions make_url(), make_url_extended() and encode_for_url().

to_hex ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinToHex[código fonte]¶

to_hex(val) — devolve a sequência val codificada em Hexadecimal. Isto é útil ao construir os URL do Calibre.

urls_from_identifiers ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinUrlsFromIdentifiers[código fonte]¶

urls_from_identifiers(identifiers, sort_results) – given a comma-separated list of identifiers, where an identifier is a colon-separated pair of values (id_name:id_value), returns a comma-separated list of HTML URLs generated from the identifiers. The list not sorted if sort_results is 0 (character or number), otherwise it is sorted alphabetically by the identifier name. The URLs are generated in the same way as the built-in identifiers column when shown in Book Details.

Funções de base de dados ¶

book_count ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinBookCount[código fonte]¶

book_count(query, use_vl) – returns the count of books found by searching for query. If use_vl is 0 (zero) then virtual libraries are ignored. This function and its companion book_values() are particularly useful in template searches, supporting searches that combine information from many books such as looking for series with only one book. It cannot be used in composite columns unless the tweak allow_template_database_functions_in_composites is set to True. It can be used only in the GUI.

For example this template search uses this function and its companion to find all series with only one book:

Define a stored template (using Preferences → Advanced → Template functions) named series_only_one_book (the name is arbitrary). The template is:

program:
    vals = globals(vals='');
    if !vals then
        all_series = book_values('series', 'series:true', ',', 0);
        for series in all_series:
            if book_count('series:="' & series & '"', 0) == 1 then
                vals = list_join(',', vals, ',', series, ',')
            fi
        rof;
        set_globals(vals)
    fi;
    str_in_list(vals, ',', $series, 1, '')

The first time the template runs (the first book checked) it stores the results of the database lookups in a global template variable named vals. These results are used to check subsequent books without redoing the lookups.

Use the stored template in a template search:

template:"program: series_only_one_book()#@#:n:1"
Using a stored template instead of putting the template into the search eliminates problems caused by the requirement to escape quotes in search expressions.

This function can be used only in the GUI and the content server.

book_values ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinBookValues[código fonte]¶

book_values(column, query, sep, use_vl) – returns a list of the unique values contained in the column column (a lookup name), separated by sep, in the books found by searching for query. If use_vl is 0 (zero) then virtual libraries are ignored. This function and its companion book_count() are particularly useful in template searches, supporting searches that combine information from many books such as looking for series with only one book. It cannot be used in composite columns unless the tweak allow_template_database_functions_in_composites is set to True. This function can be used only in the GUI and the content server.

extra_file_modtime ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinExtraFileModtime[código fonte]¶

extra_file_modtime(file_name, format_string) – returns the modification time of the extra file file_name in the book’s data/ folder if it exists, otherwise -1. The modtime is formatted according to format_string (see format_date() for details). If format_string is the empty string, returns the modtime as the floating point number of seconds since the epoch. See also the functions has_extra_files(), extra_file_names() and extra_file_size(). The epoch is OS dependent. This function can be used only in the GUI and the content server.

extra_file_names ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinExtraFileNames[código fonte]¶

extra_file_names(sep [, pattern]) – returns a sep-separated list of extra files in the book’s data/ folder. If the optional parameter pattern, a regular expression, is supplied then the list is filtered to files that match pattern. The pattern match is case insensitive. See also the functions has_extra_files(), extra_file_modtime() and extra_file_size(). This function can be used only in the GUI and the content server.

extra_file_size ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinExtraFileSize[código fonte]¶

extra_file_size(file_name) – returns the size in bytes of the extra file file_name in the book’s data/ folder if it exists, otherwise -1. See also the functions has_extra_files(), extra_file_names() and extra_file_modtime(). This function can be used only in the GUI and the content server.

get_link ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinGetLink[código fonte]¶

get_link(field_name, field_value) – fetch the link for field field_name with value field_value. If there is no attached link, return the empty string. Examples:

The following returns the link attached to the tag Fiction:
```
get_link('tags', 'Fiction')
```

This template makes a list of the links for all the tags associated with a book in the form value:link, ...:

program:
    ans = '';
    for t in $tags:
        l = get_link('tags', t);
        if l then
            ans = list_join(', ', ans, ',', t & ':' & get_link('tags', t), ',')
        fi
    rof;
ans

This function works only in the GUI and the content server.

get_note ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinGetNote[código fonte]¶

get_note(nome_do_campo, valor_do_campo, texto_simples) – devolve a nota do campo nome_do_campo com o valor valor_do_campo. Se texto_simples estiver vazio, devolve o HTML da nota, incluindo imagens. Se texto_simples for 1 (ou '1'), devolve o texto da nota sem formatação. Se a nota não existir, devolve, nos dois casos, uma sequência de caracteres vazia. Exemplo:

dDevolve o HTML da nota anexada à etiqueta Ficção:

program:
  get_note('tags', 'Ficção', '')

Devolve o texto da nota anexada ao autor Isaac Asimov:

program:
  get_note('authors', 'Isaac Asimov', 1)

Esta função apenas funciona na IGU e no servidor de conteúdos.

has_extra_files ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinHasExtraFiles[código fonte]¶

has_extra_files([pattern]) – returns the count of extra files, otherwise “” (the empty string). If the optional parameter pattern (a regular expression) is supplied then the list is filtered to files that match pattern before the files are counted. The pattern match is case insensitive. See also the functions extra_file_names(), extra_file_size() and extra_file_modtime(). This function can be used only in the GUI and the content server.

has_note ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinHasNote[código fonte]¶

has_note(field_name, field_value). Check if a field has a note. This function has two variants:

if field_value is not '' (the empty string) return '1' if the value field_value in the field field_name has a note, otherwise ''.

Example: has_note('tags', 'Fiction') returns '1' if the tag fiction has an attached note, otherwise ''.
If field_value is '' then return a list of values in field_name that have a note. If no item in the field has a note, return ''. This variant is useful for showing column icons if any value in the field has a note, rather than a specific value.

Example: has_note('authors', '') returns a list of authors that have notes, or '' if no author has a note.

You can test if all the values in field_name have a note by comparing the list length of this function’s return value against the list length of the values in field_name. Example:

list_count(has_note('authors', ''), '&') ==# list_count_field('authors')

This function works only in the GUI and the content server.

Funções de data ¶

date_arithmetic ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinDateArithmetic[código fonte]¶

date_arithmetic(value, calc_spec, fmt) – Calculate a new date from value using calc_spec. Return the new date formatted according to optional fmt: if not supplied then the result will be in ISO format. The calc_spec is a string formed by concatenating pairs of vW (valueWhat) where v is a possibly-negative number and W is one of the following letters:

s: add v seconds to date
m: add v minutes to date
h: add v hours to date
d: add v days to date
w: add v weeks to date
y: add v years to date, where a year is 365 days.

Example: '1s3d-1m' will add 1 second, add 3 days, and subtract 1 minute from date.

days_between ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinDaysBetween[código fonte]¶

days_between(date1, date2) – return the number of days between date1 and date2. The number is positive if date1 is greater than date2, otherwise negative. If either date1 or date2 are not dates, the function returns the empty string.

today ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinToday[código fonte]¶

today() – return a date+time string for today (now). This value is designed for use in format_date or days_between, but can be manipulated like any other string. The date is in ISO date/time format.

Limitador de listas ¶

identifier_in_list ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinIdentifierInList[código fonte]¶

identifier_in_list(val, id_name [, found_val, not_found_val]) – treat val as a list of identifiers separated by commas. An identifier has the format id_name:value. The id_name parameter is the id_name text to search for, either id_name or id_name:regexp. The first case matches if there is any identifier matching that id_name. The second case matches if id_name matches an identifier and the regexp matches the identifier’s value. If found_val and not_found_val are provided then if there is a match then return found_val, otherwise return not_found_val. If found_val and not_found_val are not provided then if there is a match then return the identifier:value pair, otherwise the empty string ('').

list_contains ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinInList[código fonte]¶

list_contains(value, separator, [ pattern, found_val, ]* not_found_val) – interpret the value as a list of items separated by separator, checking the pattern against each item in the list. If the pattern matches an item then return found_val, otherwise return not_found_val. The pair pattern and found_value can be repeated as many times as desired, permitting returning different values depending on the item’s value. The patterns are checked in order, and the first match is returned.

Aliases: in_list(), list_contains()

list_item ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListitem[código fonte]¶

list_item(value, index, separator) – interpret the value as a list of items separated by separator, returning the “index’th item. The first item is number zero. The last item has the index -1 as in list_item(-1,separator). If the item is not in the list, then the empty string is returned. The separator has the same meaning as in the count function, usually comma but is ampersand for author-like lists.

select ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSelect[código fonte]¶

select(value, key) – interpret the value as a comma-separated list of items with each item having the form id:id_value (the calibre identifier format). The function finds the first pair with the id equal to key and returns the corresponding id_value. If no id matches then the function returns the empty string.

str_in_list ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinStrInList[código fonte]¶

str_in_list(value, separator, [ string, found_val, ]+ not_found_val) – interpret the value as a list of items separated by separator then compare string against each value in the list. The string is not a regular expression. If string is equal to any item (ignoring case) then return the corresponding found_val. If string contains separators then it is also treated as a list and each subvalue is checked. The string and found_value pairs can be repeated as many times as desired, permitting returning different values depending on string’s value. If none of the strings match then not_found_value is returned. The strings are checked in order. The first match is returned.

Manipulação de listas ¶

list_count ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinCount[código fonte]¶

list_count(value, separator) – interprets the value as a list of items separated by separator and returns the number of items in the list. Most lists use a comma as the separator, but authors uses an ampersand (&).

Examples: {tags:list_count(,)}, {authors:list_count(&)}.

Aliases: count(), list_count()

list_count_field ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFieldListCount[código fonte]¶

list_count_field(lookup_name)– returns the count of items in the field with the lookup name lookup_name. The field must be multi-valued such as authors or tags, otherwise the function raises an error. This function is much faster than list_count() because it operates directly on calibre data without converting it to a string first. Example: list_count_field('tags').

list_count_matching ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListCountMatching[código fonte]¶

list_count_matching(value, pattern, separator) – interprets value as a list of items separated by separator, returning the number of items in the list that match the regular expression pattern.

Aliases: list_count_matching(), count_matching()

list_difference ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListDifference[código fonte]¶

list_difference(list1, list2, separator) — devolve uma lista, criada ao remover da list1 qualquer item encontrado na list2, usando uma comparação não sensível a maiúsculas. Os itens em list1 e lst2 são separados por separador, tal como estão os itens da lista devolvida.

list_equals ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListEquals[código fonte]¶

list_equals(list1, sep1, list2, sep2, yes_val, no_val) – return yes_val if list1 and list2 contain the same items, otherwise return no_val. The items are determined by splitting each list using the appropriate separator character (sep1 or sep2). The order of items in the lists is not relevant. The comparison is case-insensitive.

list_intersection ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListIntersection[código fonte]¶

list_intersection(list1, list2, separator) – return a list made by removing from list1 any item not found in list2, using a case-insensitive comparison. The items in list1 and list2 are separated by separator, as are the items in the returned list.

list_join ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListJoin[código fonte]¶

list_join(with_separator, list1, separator1 [, list2, separator2]*) – return a list made by joining the items in the source lists (list1 etc) using with_separator between the items in the result list. Items in each source list[123...] are separated by the associated separator[123...]. A list can contain zero values. It can be a field like publisher that is single-valued, effectively a one-item list. Duplicates are removed using a case-insensitive comparison. Items are returned in the order they appear in the source lists. If items on lists differ only in letter case then the last is used. All separators can be more than one character.

Example:

program:
    list_join('#@#', $authors, '&', $tags, ',')

You can use list_join on the results of previous calls to list_join as follows:

program:
    a = list_join('#@#', $authors, '&', $tags, ',');
    b = list_join('#@#', a, '#@#', $#genre, ',', $#people, '&', 'some value', ',')

You can use expressions to generate a list. For example, assume you want items for authors and #genre, but with the genre changed to the word «Genre: « followed by the first letter of the genre, i.e. the genre «Fiction» becomes «Genre: F». The following will do that:

program:
    list_join('#@#', $authors, '&', list_re($#genre, ',', '^(.).*$', 'Genre: \1'),  ',')

list_re ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListRe[código fonte]¶

list_re(src_list, separator, include_re, opt_replace) – Construct a list by first separating src_list into items using the separator character. For each item in the list, check if it matches include_re. If it does then add it to the list to be returned. If opt_replace is not the empty string then apply the replacement before adding the item to the returned list.

list_re_group ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListReGroup[código fonte]¶

list_re_group(src_list, separator, include_re, search_re [,template_for_group]*) – Like list_re except replacements are not optional. It uses re_group(item, search_re, template ...) when doing the replacements.

list_remove_duplicates ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListRemoveDuplicates[código fonte]¶

list_remove_duplicates(list, separator) – return a list made by removing duplicate items in list. If items differ only in case then the last is returned. The items in list are separated by separator, as are the items in the returned list.

list_sort ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListSort[código fonte]¶

list_sort(value, direction, separator) – return value sorted using a case-insensitive lexical sort. If direction is zero (number or character), value is sorted ascending, otherwise descending. The list items are separated by separator, as are the items in the returned list.

list_split ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListSplit[código fonte]¶

list_split(list_val, sep, id_prefix) — separa list_val em valores separados usando sep, e então atribui os valores a variáveis nomeadas id_prefix_N onde N é a posição do valor na lista. O primeiro item tem uma posição 0 (zero). A função devolve o último elemento da lista.

Exemplo:

list_split('one:two:foo', ':', 'var')

is equivalent to:

var_0 = 'one'
var_1 = 'two'
var_2 = 'foo'

list_union ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinListUnion[código fonte]¶

list_union(list1, list2, separator) – return a list made by merging the items in list1 and list2, removing duplicate items using a case-insensitive comparison. If items differ in case, the one in list1 is used. The items in list1 and list2 are separated by separator, as are the items in the returned list. Aliases: merge_lists(), list_union()

range ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinRange[código fonte]¶

range(start, stop, step, limit) – returns a list of numbers generated by looping over the range specified by the parameters start, stop, and step, with a maximum length of limit. The first value produced is “start”. Subsequent values next_v = current_v + step. The loop continues while next_v < stop assuming step is positive, otherwise while next_v > stop. An empty list is produced if start fails the test: start >= stop if step is positive. The limit sets the maximum length of the list and has a default of 1000. The parameters start, step, and limit are optional. Calling range() with one argument specifies stop. Two arguments specify start and stop. Three arguments specify start, stop, and step. Four arguments specify start, stop, step and limit.

Examples:

range(5) -> '0, 1, 2, 3, 4'
range(0, 5) -> '0, 1, 2, 3, 4'
range(-1, 5) -> '-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4'
range(1, 5) -> '1, 2, 3, 4'
range(1, 5, 2) -> '1, 3'
range(1, 5, 2, 5) -> '1, 3'
range(1, 5, 2, 1) -> error(limit exceeded)

subitems ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSubitems[código fonte]¶

subitems(value, start_index, end_index) – This function breaks apart lists of tag-like hierarchical items such as genres. It interprets the value as a comma- separated list of tag-like items, where each item is a period-separated list. It returns a new list made by extracting from each item the components from start_index to end_index, then merging the results back together. Duplicates are removed. The first subitem in a period-separated list has an index of zero. If an index is negative then it counts from the end of the list. As a special case, an end_index of zero is assumed to be the length of the list.

Examples:

Assuming a #genre column containing «A.B.C»:
- {#genre:subitems(0,1)} returns «A»
- {#genre:subitems(0,2)} returns «A.B»
- {#genre:subitems(1,0)} returns «B.C»
Assuming a #genre column containing «A.B.C, D.E»:
- {#genre:subitems(0,1)} returns «A, D»
- {#genre:subitems(0,2)} returns «A.B, D.E»

sublist ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSublist[código fonte]¶

sublist(value, start_index, end_index, separator) – interpret the value as a list of items separated by separator, returning a new list made from the items from start_index to end_index. The first item is number zero. If an index is negative, then it counts from the end of the list. As a special case, an end_index of zero is assumed to be the length of the list.

Examples assuming that the tags column (which is comma-separated) contains «A, B, C»:

{tags:sublist(0,1,\,)} returns «A»
{tags:sublist(-1,0,\,)} returns «C»
{tags:sublist(0,-1,\,)} returns «A, B»

Manipulação de sequências ¶

character ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinCharacter[código fonte]¶

character(character_name) – returns the character named by character_name. For example, character('newline') returns a newline character ('\n'). The supported character names are newline, return, tab, and backslash. This function is used to put these characters into the output of templates.

check_yes_no ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinCheckYesNo[código fonte]¶

check_yes_no(field_name, is_undefined, is_false, is_true) – checks if the value of the yes/no field named by the lookup name field_name is one of the values specified by the parameters, returning 'Yes' if a match is found otherwise returning the empty string. Set the parameter is_undefined, is_false, or is_true to 1 (the number) to check that condition, otherwise set it to 0.

Example: check_yes_no("#bool", 1, 0, 1) returns 'Yes' if the yes/no field #bool is either True or undefined (neither True nor False).

More than one of is_undefined, is_false, or is_true can be set to 1.

This function works only in the GUI and the content server.

contains ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinContains[código fonte]¶

re ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinRe[código fonte]¶

re(value, pattern, replacement) — devolve o value depois de aplicar a expressão regular. Todas as instâncias de pattern no value são substituídas por replacement. A linguagem do modelo não distingue maiúsculas de minúsculas Expressões regulares Python

re_group ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinReGroup[código fonte]¶

re_group(value, pattern [, template_for_group]*) – return a string made by applying the regular expression pattern to value and replacing each matched instance with the value returned by the corresponding template. In Template Program Mode, like for the template and the eval functions, you use [[ for { and ]] for }.

The following example looks for a series with more than one word and uppercases the first word:

program: re_group(field('series'), "(\S* )(.*)", "{$:uppercase()}", "{$}")'}

shorten ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinShorten[código fonte]¶

shorten(value, left_chars, middle_text, right_chars) – Return a shortened version of the value, consisting of left_chars characters from the beginning of the value, followed by middle_text, followed by right_chars characters from the end of the value. left_chars and right_chars must be non-negative integers.

Example: assume you want to display the title with a length of at most 15 characters in length. One template that does this is {title:shorten(9,-,5)}. For a book with the title Ancient English Laws inthe Times of Ivanhoe the result will be Ancient E-anhoe: the first 9 characters of the title, a -, then the last 5 characters. If the value’s length is less than left chars + right chars + the length of middle text then the value will be returned unchanged. For example, the title TheDome would not be changed.

strcat ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinStrcat[código fonte]¶

strcat(a [, b]*) — devolve uma sequência formada pela concatenação dos seus argumentos. Pode receber qualquer número de argumentos. Esta função pode, muitas vezes, ser substituída pelo operador &.

Se end for negativo, então indica esse número de caracteres contados da direita. Se end for zero, então indica o último carácter. Por exemplo, substr('12345', 1, 0) devolve '2345', e substr('12345', 1, -1) devolve '234'.

swap_around_articles ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSwapAroundArticles[código fonte]¶

swap_around_articles(value, separator) – returns the value with articles moved to the end. The value can be a list, in which case each item in the list is processed. If the value is a list then you must provide the separator. If no separator is provided then the value is treated as being a single value, not a list. The articles are those used by calibre to generate the title_sort.

swap_around_comma ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSwapAroundComma[código fonte]¶

swap_around_comma(value) — dado um value na forma B, A, devolve A B. Isto é muito útil para a conversão de nomes em formatos LN, FN para FN LN. Se não existir uma vírgula em value, então a função irá devolver o valor inalterado.

test ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinTest[código fonte]¶

test(value, text_if_not_empty, text_if_empty) — devolve text_if_not_empty` se o valor não estiver vazio, caso contrário devolve ``text_if_empty`.

approximate_formats ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinApproximateFormats[código fonte]¶

approximate_formats() – return a comma-separated list of formats associated with the book. Because the list comes from calibre’s database instead of the file system, there is no guarantee that the list is correct, although it probably is. Note that resulting format names are always uppercase, as in EPUB. The approximate_formats() function is much faster than the formats_... functions.

This function works only in the GUI. If you want to use these values in save-to-disk or send-to-device templates then you must make a custom «Column built from other columns», use the function in that column’s template, and use that column’s value in your save/send templates.

author_links ¶

author_links(val_separator, pair_separator) – returns a string containing a list of authors and those authors” link values in the form: author1 val_separator author1_link pair_separator author2 val_separator author2_link etc.

An author is separated from its link value by the val_separator string with no added spaces. Assuming the val_separator is a colon, author:link value pairs are separated by the pair_separator string argument with no added spaces. It is up to you to choose separators that do not occur in author names or links. An author is included even if the author link is empty.

author_sorts ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinAuthorSorts[código fonte]¶

author_sorts(val_separator) – returns a string containing a list of author’s sort values for the authors of the book. The sort is the one in the author metadata information, which can be different from the author_sort in books. The returned list has the form author sort 1 val_separator author sort 2 etc. with no added spaces. The author sort values in this list are in the same order as the authors of the book. If you want spaces around val_separator then include them in the val_separator string.

booksize ¶

Outro(s)¶

arguments ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinArguments[código fonte]¶

arguments(id[=expression] [, id[=expression]]*) – Used in a stored template to retrieve the arguments passed in the call. It both declares and initializes local variables with the supplied names, the id``s, making them effectively parameters. The variables are positional; they get the value of the argument given in the call in the same position. If the corresponding argument is not provided in the call then ``arguments() assigns that variable the provided default value. If there is no default value then the variable is set to the empty string.

assign ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinAssign[código fonte]¶

assign(id, val) — atribui value a id e depois devolve value. O id deve ser um identificador e não uma expressão. Esta função pode, muitas vezes, ser substituída pelo operador =

Recorrência ¶

eval ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinEval[código fonte]¶

eval(string) – avalia a sequência como um programa, passando as variáveis locais. Isto permite usar o processador de modelo para construir resultados complexos a partir de variáveis locais. No Modo de programa por modelos, porque os caracteres { e } são interpretados antes que o modelo seja avaliado, deve usar [[ para o carácter { e ]] para o carácter }. Serão convertidos automaticamente. Note também que prefixos e sufixos (a sintaxe |prefix|suffix) não podem ser usados no argumento para esta função ao usar o Modo de programa por modelos.

template ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinTemplate[código fonte]¶

template(x) – analisa x como um modelo.. A analise é feita em seu próprio contexto, o que significa que as variáveis não são partilhadas entre a chamador e a análise do modelo. Se não usar o modo de Programação geral, e porque os caracteres { e } são especiais, deve usar [[ para { e ]] para o carácter }. Serão convertidos automaticamente. Por exemplo, template(\'[[title_sort]]\') irá analisar o modelo {title_sort} e devolver o seu valor. Note também que prefixos e sufixos (a sintaxwe |prefix|suffix ) não podem ser usados no argumento para esta função ao usar o modo de Programação por modelos.

Relacional ¶

cmp ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinCmp[código fonte]¶

first_matching_cmp(i,5,"small",10,"middle",15,"large","giant")

devolve "large". O mesmo exemplo, mas em que o primeiro valor seja 16, devolve "giant".

strcmp ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinStrcmp[código fonte]¶

strcmp(x, y, lt, eq, gt) — faz uma comparação lexical, não diferenciadora de maiúsculas, de x e y. Devolve lt se x < y. Devolve eq se x == y. Caso contrário devolve gt. Esta função pode ser substituída, em muitos casos, por um dos operadores de comparação lexical (==, >, <, etc.)

strcmpcase ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinStrcmpcase[código fonte]¶

strcmpcase(x, y, lt, eq, gt) — faz uma comparação lexical entre x e y com diferenciação entre maiúsculas e minúsculas. Devolve lt se x < y. Devolve eq se x == y. De contrário devolve gt. Nota: Este NÃO é o comportamento predefinido usado pelo Calibre, por exemplo, nos operadores de comparação léxical (==, >, <, etc.). Esta função pode causar resultados inesperados. Utilize strcmp() sempre que possível.

Repetir sobre valores:¶

first_non_empty ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinFirstNonEmpty[código fonte]¶

first_non_empty(value [, value]*) — devolve o primeiro value que não esteja vazio. Se todos os valores estiverem vazios, então é devolvida a string vazia. Pode ter quantos valores quiser.

lookup ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinLookup[código fonte]¶

lookup(value, [ pattern, key, ]* else_key) – Os padrões serão verificados em relação ao value por ordem. Se um pattern corresponder, será devolvido o valor do campo designado por key. Se nenhum padrão corresponder, será devolvido o valor do campo designado por else_key. Veja também a função switch().

switch ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSwitch[código fonte]¶

switch(value, [patternN, valueN,]+ else_value) – for each patternN, valueN pair, checks if the value matches the regular expression patternN and if so returns the associated valueN. If no patternN matches, then else_value is returned. You can have as many patternN, valueN pairs as you wish. The first match is returned.

A mostrar a documentação em inglês devido ao erro FFML: Missing closing «`» for italics on line 2 in «switch»

switch_if ¶

class calibre.utils.formatter_functions.BuiltinSwitchIf[código fonte]¶

switch_if([expressao_teste, expressao_valor,]+ expressão_senao) — para cada par expressao_teste, expressao_valor, verifica se a expressao_teste é Verdadeira (não-vazia) e, se sim, devolve o resultado da expressao_valor. Se nenhuma expressao_teste for Verdadeira, então é devolvido o resultado da expressao_senao. Você pode ter tantos pares expressao_teste, expressao_valor quantos os que queira.

API of the Metadata objects ¶

The python implementation of the template functions is passed in a Metadata object. Knowing it’s API is useful if you want to define your own template functions.

class calibre.ebooks.metadata.book.base.Metadata(title, authors=('Desconhecido',), other=None, template_cache=None, formatter=None)[código fonte]¶

A class representing all the metadata for a book. The various standard metadata fields are available as attributes of this object. You can also stick arbitrary attributes onto this object.

Metadata from custom columns should be accessed via the get() method, passing in the lookup name for the column, for example: «#mytags».

Use the is_null() method to test if a field is null.

This object also has functions to format fields into strings.

The list of standard metadata fields grows with time is in STANDARD_METADATA_FIELDS.

Please keep the method based API of this class to a minimum. Every method becomes a reserved field name.

is_null(field)[código fonte]¶

Return True if the value of field is null in this object. “null” means it is unknown or evaluates to False. So a title of _(“Unknown”) is null or a language of “und” is null.

Be careful with numeric fields since this will return True for zero as well as None.

Also returns True if the field does not exist.

deepcopy(class_generator=<function Metadata.<lambda>>)[código fonte]¶: Do not use this method unless you know what you are doing, if you want to create a simple clone of this object, use deepcopy_metadata() instead. Class_generator must be a function that returns an instance of Metadata or a subclass of it.

get_identifiers()[código fonte]¶: Return a copy of the identifiers dictionary. The dict is small, and the penalty for using a reference where a copy is needed is large. Also, we don’t want any manipulations of the returned dict to show up in the book.

set_identifiers(identifiers)[código fonte]¶: Set all identifiers. Note that if you previously set ISBN, calling this method will delete it.

set_identifier(typ, val)[código fonte]¶: If val is empty, deletes identifier of type typ

standard_field_keys()[código fonte]¶: return a list of all possible keys, even if this book doesn’t have them

custom_field_keys()[código fonte]¶: return a list of the custom fields in this book

all_field_keys()[código fonte]¶: All field keys known by this instance, even if their value is None

metadata_for_field(key)[código fonte]¶: return metadata describing a standard or custom field.

all_non_none_fields()[código fonte]¶: Return a dictionary containing all non-None metadata fields, including the custom ones.

get_standard_metadata(field, make_copy)[código fonte]¶: return field metadata from the field if it is there. Otherwise return None. field is the key name, not the label. Return a copy if requested, just in case the user wants to change values in the dict.

get_all_standard_metadata(make_copy)[código fonte]¶: return a dict containing all the standard field metadata associated with the book.

get_all_user_metadata(make_copy)[código fonte]¶: return a dict containing all the custom field metadata associated with the book.

get_user_metadata(field, make_copy)[código fonte]¶: return field metadata from the object if it is there. Otherwise return None. field is the key name, not the label. Return a copy if requested, just in case the user wants to change values in the dict.

set_all_user_metadata(metadata)[código fonte]¶: store custom field metadata into the object. Field is the key name not the label

set_user_metadata(field, metadata)[código fonte]¶: store custom field metadata for one column into the object. Field is the key name not the label

remove_stale_user_metadata(other_mi)[código fonte]¶: Remove user metadata keys (custom column keys) if they don’t exist in “other_mi”, which must be a metadata object

template_to_attribute(other, ops)[código fonte]¶: Takes a list [(src,dest), (src,dest)], evaluates the template in the context of other, then copies the result to self[dest]. This is on a best-efforts basis. Some assignments can make no sense.

smart_update(other, replace_metadata=False)[código fonte]¶: Merge the information in other into self. In case of conflicts, the information in other takes precedence, unless the information in other is NULL.

format_field(key, series_with_index=True)[código fonte]¶: Returns the tuple (display_name, formatted_value)

to_html()[código fonte]¶: A HTML representation of this object.

calibre.ebooks.metadata.book.base.STANDARD_METADATA_FIELDS¶: The set of standard metadata fields.
