Missing full texts for some books

Open smythp opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hey, got item # 807 back as a detective novel when I query for metadata, but it returns an empty list when I request the full text.

Damn. Yeah I guess there are just some missing texts. For a lot of the scripts that I used to create the DB, I just used a lazy try/except error handling that would just skip past anything that caused errors. As a results, there are lots of things missing. Hopefully I can fix this in the 2.0 rewrite. I'll slate this for 2.0.

Sounds good! Unfortunately this means I have to put in a lot of edge case handling which is making my notebook look pretty industrial heh.
