calibredb: Remove one or more e-books from the library. You need the e-book IDs (see above).
$ calibredb remove ${id1 id2 …}
try on your machine
The command "calibredb remove ${id1 id2 ...}" is used to remove one or more ebooks from the Calibre library.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "calibredb" is the command-line tool used to interact with the Calibre database.
- "remove" is the subcommand used to specify that you want to remove ebooks.
- "${id1 id2 ...}" represents the list of ebook IDs or book numbers that you want to remove. These IDs/names should be separated by spaces. The IDs can be found by using the "calibredb list" command or by looking at the library view in the Calibre desktop application.
When executing this command, you need to replace "${id1 id2 ...}" with the actual IDs/names of the ebooks you want to remove. For example, if you want to remove ebooks with the IDs 12345 and 67890, the command would look like this: "calibredb remove 12345 67890".
Please note that this command permanently deletes the specified ebooks from the Calibre library, so make sure you have a backup if required.
