Can't open book from command line

Opened this issue · 1 comments

If I try to do gnome-books <filename>, it fails with the message (org.gnome.Books:6098): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: This application can not open files.
I discovered this when I tryed to edit the desktop file changing the Exec command to gnome-books %F in order for it to appear in open with dialog or have it configured to open an ebook just by double clicking it on nautilus.
As this is open any ebook not present in books collection. It would also be nice to just open an ebook by drag and drop it inside the application.

+1 I would love to see this feature as well. 3.26.1 gnome-books can only open books from collection (I assume scanned by tracker?). Are there any changes in 3.28?
