[Metadata Source Plugin] Kobo Metadata

Grabs metadata from the Kobo store

Features
  • Can grab title, author, synopsis, publisher, published date, series, and tags
  • Can fetch high res cover art
  • Blacklist tags / terms in the title
  • Select from different countries

Note that Kobo seems to do a pretty bad job of tagging series properly - not much I can do about that

Troubleshooting

If the plugin is having trouble picking up the right book, you can try either:
  • Opening the book details and using the "Edit Metadata Individually" button while turning the "Number of matches to fetch" setting up.
  • Adding the isbn to the "Ids" field

Feel free to make a PR if you're into that
