Compile a list of books you've read

Project description

bibliographer

bibliographer is a Python program to compile a list of books you've read.

It's designed to pull your reading library from Audible and Kindle, enrich those libraries with metadata like ISBN, book covers, and Wikipedia links, and save the results to individual JSON files for use by other programs. For instance, it retrieves the data for the /books section of my website.

Right now, there are some mild assumptions that the consumer is a Hugo static site, but it can be used generically too, and work is ongoing to improve this.

Features

[!CAUTION] Retrieving your Audible library via this program relies on the audible Python package and may violate Amazon's terms of service. You must configure audible_auth_password_cmd to set an encryption password for the Audible credentials file.

[!CAUTION] Retrieving ASINs (Amazon product IDs) via this program scrapes https://amazon.com which may violate Amazon's terms of service.

[!NOTE] Retrieving your Kindle library requires logging in to https://read.amazon.com and running some JavaScript in the web console, which cannot be done for you automatically and is a bit user-unfriendly but probably(?) doesn't violate Amazon's terms of service.

Library ingestion
- Automatically pull your library from Audible, which requires your username, password, and 2 factor OTP
- Automatically pull your library from Libro.fm, which requires your username and password
- Parse your library from Kindle, which requires you to generate it by logging in to https://read.amazon.com and running some code in the web dev tools
- Add books one by one
Retrieve metadata on books
- Pull cover images from Google Books
- Look up ISBN from title/authors
- Find Wikipedia pages for title/authors
- Find Amazon product pages from ISBN or title/author
Cache API results; once a result is retrieved, its cached in a JSON file designed to be retained (committed to git, etc)
Allow manual changes
- Metadata retrieval isn't perfect; you can edit JSON files to change the mapping of books in your library to metadata from external APIs, and this will be retained on subsequent runs of the program
Save metadata to a JSON file for use by other programs like static site generators etc

Installing

I recommend uv for this, but it should work with regular pip as well.

# With uv
uvx bibliographer --help

# With pip
pip install bibliographer
bibliographer --help

Installing for development

In theory there's nothing uv-specific about the code, but only uv is tested. Clone the repo, and then:

uv add --dev .[dev]
. .venv/bin/activate

bibliographer supports the --debug/-D flag which will drop you into the debugger on any unhandled exception.

bibliographer -D ...

`bibliograhper` versioning

We follow Pride Versioning.

You can't expect real stability because the most important APIs we use are ~~user-hostile~~undocumented, so we might as well have fun.

Usage examples

Simple usage with Audible

Without any other configuration, this will:

Prompt you to log in to your Audible account
Retrieve your Audible library
Retrieve metadata from various APIs like OpenLibrary
Save your Audible library to bibliographer/data/apicache/audible_library_metadata.json
Populate some mapping files in bibliographer/data/usermaps:
- audible_library_metadata_enriched.json: to save enriched data about your books
- isbn2olid_map.json: to map your books to OpenLibrary IDs
- search2asin.json: to find an ASIN on Amazon.com for your books
- wikipedia_relevant.json: to contain a list of relevant Wikipedia pages
Create a slug directory inside bibliographer/books for each book based on its title, like bibliographer/books/getting-things-done. The slug can be configured inside audible_library_metadata_enriched.json.
Create a cover.jpg (or .png etc) inside each slug directory
Create a bibliographer.json file containing enriched metadata inside each slug directory

# Retrieve library from Audible
bibliographer audible

# Populate bibliographer.json metadata files
bibliograhper populate

Simple usage with libro.fm

# Retrieve library from Libro.fm
bibliographer --librofm-username you@example.com --librofm-password p@ssw0rd librofm retrieve

# Populate bibliographer.json metadata files
bibliographer populate

Simple usage with Kindle

bibliographer doesn't currently support retrieving the Kindle library automatically. Instead, you must log in to your Kindle account in a web browser, run some JavaScript in the browser's developer tools, copy the output, and provide it to bibliographer yourself.

Log into https://read.amazon.com in a web browser where you have access to the developer tools. This has been tested most extensively in Firefox.
Open the JavaScript console in Developer Tools. In FireFox on macOS, this means Tools -> Browser Tools -> Web Developer Tools, then select the Console tab.
Copy and paste the contents of exportKindleLibrary.js. Run it by pressing Return
That will download a file called kindle-library.json.

Now ingest the data and populate the bibliographer.json metadata files with:

bibliographer kindle ingest /path/to/kindle-library.json
bibliographer populate

Logging

Passing the --verbose/-v flag provides detailed log messages. If you're ingesting more than a handful of books at a time, it's nice to do this to know that the process hasn't gotten stuck.

bibliographer -v ...

Changing settings in usermaps

The usermaps directory is populated based on some heuristic queries, but you may want to override these. After enriching book metadata, you should always check that these heuristics found the correct data for your books.

For instance, the book Blackletter: Type and National Identity is by design historian Paul Shaw, but Wikipedia knows several people by that name and may have returned the disambiguation page or one of the other individuals. To fix that, you can edit the bibliographer/data/apicache/wikipedia_relevant.json file to point to the correct Paul Shaw.

{
  // ...
  "title=Blackletter: Type and National Identity;authors=Peter Bain|Paul Shaw": {
    "Paul Shaw": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Shaw_(design_historian)"
  },
  // ...
}

Using with Hugo

When using with Hugo, it's useful to set a config file in the Hugo repository root.

hugosite/
  assets/
    bibliographer/
      apicache/
        audible_library_metadata.json
        ...
      usermaps/
        audible_library_metadata_enriched.json
        ...
  content/
    books/
      getting-things-done/
        index.md
        bibliographer.json
        cover.jpg
      ...
  bibliographer.toml
  hugo.toml

You might set the bibliographer.toml config file like:

google_books_key = "your-google-books-key"
bibliographer_data_root = "assets/bibliographer"
default_slug_root = "content/books"
individual_bibliographer_json = true

And run the program like:

# Inside the hugosite directory, bibliographer will find the bibliographer.toml automatically
cd hugosite/
# Now run it as normal
bibliographer audible
bibliograhper populate

It'll create book slug directories inside of content/books, ready to be picked up by your Hugo site.

Example Hugo templates

If you have a Hugo site as described above, with content/books/ as your default_slug_root, you can make a Hugo layout file in e.g. layouts/books/single.html that will generate book pages. Here's a simple example:

Your Hugo templates can get the JSON data and cover files like this:

{{- define "main" }}

<section class="book-metadata">

  {{ $coverImg := (index (where (.Resources.Match "cover.*") "ResourceType" "in" (slice "image" "image/jpg" "image/jpeg" "image/png" "image/gif" "image/webp")) 0) }}
  <img src="{{ $coverImg.RelPermalink }}">

  {{ $book := .Resources.Get "bibliographer.json" | transform.Unmarshal }}
  <dl class="public-book-metadata">
    <dt>Author</dt>
    <dd>{{ delimit $book.authors ", " }}</dd5>

    {{ with $book.isbn }}
    <dt>ISBN</dt>
    <dd>{{ . }}</dd>
    {{ end }}

    <dt>Book Data</dt>
    <dd>
      <ul>
        {{ with $book.openlibrary_id }}<li><a href="https://openlibrary.org/books/{{ . }}">Open Library</a></li>{{ end }}
        {{ with $book.gbooks_volid }}<li><a href="https://books.google.com/books?id={{ . }}">Google Books</a></li>{{ end }}
      </ul>
    </dd>

    {{- if and $book.urls_wikipedia (gt (len $book.urls_wikipedia) 0) }}
    <dt>Elsewhere</dt>
    <dd>
      <ul>
        {{ range $title, $url := $book.urls_wikipedia }}
        <li><a href="{{ $url }}">{{ $title }} - Wikipedia</a></li>
        {{- end }}
      </ul>
    </dd>
    {{ end }}
  </dl>

</section>

<section>
  {{ .Content }}
</section>

{{- end }}

Example output `bibliographer.json` file

Running bibliographer populate will create a file called bibliographer.json for each book in your library. That file looks like this:

{
  "title": "Getting Things Done",
  "authors": [
    "David Allen"
  ],
  "isbn": "9780143126560",
  "purchase_date": null,
  "read_date": "2024-11-01",
  "published": null,
  "links": {
    "metadata": {
      "openlibrary": "https://openlibrary.org/books/OL26211544M"
    },
    "affiliate": {
      "amazon": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/0143126563"
    },
    "other": [
      {
        "title": "Getting Things Done - Wikipedia",
        "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getting_Things_Done"
      },
      {
        "title": "David Allen - Wikipedia",
        "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Allen"
      }
    ]
  }
}

The `bibliographer.toml` config file

Some command-line arguments can be set in a configuration file so you don't need to pass them at runtime. bibliographer looks for a file called bibliographer.toml or .bibliographer.toml in the runtime $PWD and all of its parents, or you can pass it explicitly with --config.

The options in the config file correspond to command-line options, and are shown below in the program help output.

File paths specified in the config file can be absolute, or relative to the directory containing the config file.

version = "2.3"

debug = false
verbose = false
google_books_key = ""
google_books_key_cmd = ""
audible_auth_password = ""
audible_auth_password_cmd = ""
librofm_username = ""
librofm_password = ""
librofm_password_cmd = ""
raindrop_token = ""
raindrop_token_cmd = ""
individual_bibliographer_json = false
default_slug_root = "bibliographer/books"
audible_login_file = ".bibliographer-audible-auth.json"
bibliographer_data_root = "bibliographer/data"

API cache files

Results from external APIs are stored in {bibliographer_data}/apicache/*.json files. These files are not inteded to be edited by hand. Currently these files include:

audible_library_metadata.json
kindle_library_metadata.json
gbooks_volumes.json

User mapping files

Mapping of IDs and search queries from various sources to specific API results are stored in {bibliographer_data}/usermaps/*.json files. These are intended to be edited by hand. Currently these files include:

isbn2olid_map.json: Mapping ISBNs to OpenLibrary IDs
search2asin.json: Mapping a search term, which might be an ISBN or a title + author, to ASIN
wikipedia_relevant.json: Mapping a search time, like a title or an author, to a Wikipedia page
audible_library_metadata_enriched.json: "Enriched" data for the Audible library, including the Audible ASIN as a key, and an object with ISBN, links, etc as a value.
kindle_library_metadata_enriched.json: "Enriched" data for the Kindle library, including the Kindle ASIN as a key, and an object with ISBN, links, etc as a value.
manual.json: A manual library with books added directly on the command line from bibliographer manual add ...

Generating and saving a Google Books API Key

See the Google Books API documentation for information on obtaining and using an API key.

You can pass it in or save it directly with --google-books-key, and you can also use the google_books_key_cmd config file option (or command line argument) to provide a command to retrieve the key from a password manager. For instance, if you have a 1Password entry called GoogleBooksApi that has a field called bibliographer-google-books-api-key, you might set this in bibliographer.toml:

google_books_key_cmd = "op item get GoogleBooksApi --field label=bibliographer-google-books-api-key"

This way you can safely store your config file in git without committing any secrets in plain text.

You can also set the key directly in bibliographer.toml if you prefer:

google_books_key = "your key goes here"

Future

Goodreads support mrled/bibliographer#11
Support other site generators besides Hugo generically mrled/bibliographer#4
