Support Data files directory

Closed this issue · 5 comments

A lot of my books have data files. Would it be possible to get access to the data files via the web interface in some way?

I'm thinking something like a pop-up that would allow me to download individual files, or a button/link that would download the whole data directory as a zip file.

Hi @russell-phillips I haven't really used data files with Calibre before, but I don't see why not...

Can you tell a bit more about your use case, the kind of data files you're adding, and how you'd like to access them from COPS?

@mikespub I mostly use data files with my gaming books. The data files are usually supplementary PDFs, although there can be a variety of other types too (zip are probably the second most common, with occasional image files, .odt files...)

Mostly I want to be able to download them to whatever device I'm using COPS on. I don't really mind whether that's all the files in a zip, or one at a time.

Thank you for being willing to add this 😄

Included in release 2.7.5

For any fancy templating with popup's etc. feel free to submit a pull request ;-)
