19 -d, --database database Open this database by pathname/db uri
21 Initialize database and import genres list. Isn’t really needed as
22 the next script does all that too.
30 ml-import.py [-d] [file.inpx ...]
34 -d, --database database Open this database by pathname/db uri
36 Initialize database, import genres list and import a list of INPX files
37 listed in the command line. On subsequent runs doesn’t destroy DB or
38 reimport genres; it also skips already import books but import new ones.
46 ml-search.py [-d] [-i] [-I] [-t] [-s] [-f] [-v] [-c] ...
48 Search through the database and display results. Currently can only
49 search authors by name.
53 -d, --database database Open this database by pathname/db uri
54 -i, --ignore-case ignore case (default is to guess)
55 -I, --case-sensitive don’t ignore case
56 -t, --start search type: substring at the start
58 -s, --substring search type: substring anywhere
59 -f, --full search type: match the full string
60 -c, --count Output count of found objects
61 -v, --verbose Output more details about found objects;
62 repeat for even more details
64 Options ``-i/-I`` cannot be used together as they are the opposite. In
65 case none of them are used the program guesses case-sensitivity by
66 looking at the arguments. If all arguments are lowercase the program
67 performs case-insensitive search. If there are UPPERCASE or MixedCase
68 arguments the program performs case-sensitive search.
70 Options ``-t/-s/-f`` define the search type. Search types are:
72 * start - search for substring at the start of the search field; for
73 example searching for "duck" returns results for "duck" and "duckling"
74 but not for "McDuck"; this is the default search type.
75 * substring - search for any substring; "duck" => "duck", "duckling",
76 "McDuck" (except for case-sensitive search, of course).
77 * full - search for exact match, compare the entire strings;
78 i.e. searching for "duck" returns results for "duck" but not for
87 ml-search.py author [-s surname] [-n name] [-m misc-name] [--id id] [fullname]

102 Search and print a list of authors whose surname starts with "duck",
105 If a few options are given the search is limited with operator AND.
108 ml-search.py -i author -s duck -n mack
110 Search and print a list of authors whose surname starts with "duck" and
111 name starts with "mack", case insensitive.
113 With one option `-v` it also prints database id.

141 --gid gid Search by genre’s id
142 -l, --lang lang Search by language
143 --lid lid Search by language’s id
145 By default the program prints only titles of the found book. With one
146 option `-v` it also prints database id, the list of authors and genres,
147 and also series the book belongs to (if any) and the serial number of
148 the book in the series. With two options `-v` (`-v -v` or simply `-vv`)
149 it also prints the file date and language. With three `-v` it prints
150 archive name, file name, extension and size, and flag if the book is
151 marked to be deleted.
