Page count is not imported

[Kachelkaiser]

I imported several books by ISBN via add book -> auto fill -> isbn, but in the most cases the page count was not imported even if it is available e. G. In goodreads I imported the German version

Examples 9783832165307 9783442467617 9783453428591

Did I something wrong?

Which plugin did you use to import those books ? For example with the calibre plugin this information is not present in the output even with the goodreads plugin activated in calibre. For the last one here is the output that Jelu uses to fill the data :

Where can I see which plugin I used?

[bayang]

If you did not add the google or inventaireio plugin manually, then you probably used the calibre plugin. If the reorder plugins modal you can see on the docs here https://bayang.github.io/jelu-web/usage/metadata/ is not available to you it means you only have the default one. The inventaire plugin supports importing page count if it is available, maybe you can give it a try.

[Kachelkaiser]

Thanks for the hint. I didn't recognized this possibility for defining meta data providers. I used jelu in standard config until now.

I'll give it a try and come back to you.

[Kachelkaiser]

So now tested it also with the inventaire plugin. The import works better now and I recognized that in most times the page count is not available in the sources.

maybe I can raise a feature request for adding a new search source.

For german books the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (German national library) could be a good source.

Here are some information about searching in their catalog

https://www.dnb.de/EN/Professionell/Metadatendienste/Datenbezug/SRU/sru_node.html https://github.com/deutsche-nationalbibliothek/dnblab https://dnb-sru-demo.streamlit.app/

[bayang]

Ok, yes please open a new issue for the feature request and you can close this one then.

[Kachelkaiser]

Seems to work now. Thanks for the hint.

[Kachelkaiser]

Ok, sorry for reopening here, but I still facing the same issue, even when I use the google Import

example

ISBN: 9783985852116

Google books Site: https://www.google.de/books/edition/Der_verschwundene_Buchladen/u09F0AEACAAJ?hl=en

As you can see here, there is a page count and also a translator

Both is not imported

Please advise.

[bayang]

I tried to directly call the google books API withe the same ISBN, unfortunately the page count is not provided in the response although it is displayed on their website.

This is what we get :
