13 Initialize database and import genres list. Doesn't really needed as
14 the next script does all that too.
22 ml-import.py [file.inpx ...]
24 Initialize database, import genres list and import a list of INPX files
25 listed in the command line. On subsequent runs doesn't destroy DB or
26 reimport genres; it also skips already import books but import new ones.
34 ml-search.py [-i] [-I] [-t] [-s] [-f] [-d] ...
36 Search through the database and display results. Currently can only
37 search authors by name.
41 -i, --ignore-case ignore case (default is to guess)
42 -I, --case-sensitive don't ignore case
43 -t, --start search type: substring at the start
45 -s, --substring search type: substring anywhere
46 -f, --full search type: match the full string
47 -d, --details Output more details about found objects;
48 repeat for even more details
50 Options ``-i/-I`` cannot be used together as they are the opposite. In
51 case none of them are used the program guesses case-sensitivity by
52 looking at the arguments. If all arguments are lowercase the program
53 performs case-insensitive search. If there are UPPERCASE or MixedCase
54 arguments the program performs case-sensitive search.
56 Options ``-t/-s/-f`` define the search type. Search types are:
58 * start - search for substring at the start of the search field; for
59 example searching for "duck" returns results for "duck" and "duckling"
60 but not for "McDuck"; this is the default search type.
61 * substring - search for any substring; "duck" => "duck", "duckling",
62 "McDuck" (except for case-sensitive search, of course).
63 * full - search for exact match, compare the entire strings;
64 i.e. searching for "duck" returns results for "duck" but not for
73 ml-search.py [-i/-I] [-t/-s/-f] author [-s surname] [-n name] [-m misc-name] [fullname]
75 Search and print a list of authors by surname/name/misc name/full name.
79 -s, --surname surname Search by surname
80 -n, --name name Search by name
81 -m, --misc-name misc. name Search by misc. name
85 ml-search.py -i author -s duck
87 Search and print a list of authors whose surname starts with "duck",
90 If a few options are given the search is limited with operator AND.
93 ml-search.py -i author -s duck -n mack
95 Search and print a list of authors whose surname starts with "duck", and
96 name starts with "mack", case insensitive.
104 ml-search.py [-i/-I] [-t/-s/-f] books [-t title] [-s series] [-a archive] [-f file] [--surname name] [--name name] [--misc-name name] [--fullname name] [-e ext] [--gname name] [--gtitle title] [-l lang]

113 -f, --file file Search by file name (without extension)
114 --surname surname Search by author's surname
115 --name name Search by author's name
116 --misc-name misc. name Search by author's misc. name

119 --gname name Search by genre's name
120 --gtitle title Search by genre's title
121 -l, --lang lang Search by language
123 By default the program prints only titles of the found book. With one
124 option `-d` it also prints the list of authors and genres, and also
125 series the book belongs to (if any) and the serial number of the book in
126 the series. With two options `-d` (`-d -d` or simply `-dd`) it also
127 prints the file date and language. With three `-d` it prints archive
128 name, file name, extension and size, and flag if the book is marked to
137 ml-search.py [-i/-I] [-t/-s/-f] ext [name]
139 Search and print a list of extensions by name.
147 ml-search.py [-i/-I] [-t/-s/-f] genres [-n name] [-t title]
