# Libgen Calibre Store Plugin

This is a plugin for [Calibre](https://calibre-ebook.com/) which allows you to search libgen for books using Calibre's search for e-books feature

## Installation

- Download the zip file from the [Releases](https://github.com/poochinski9/libgen-calibre-store-plugin/releases) page
- Open Calibre
- Go to **Preferences -> Plugins -> Load Plugin from File** and select the zip file you downloaded.
- Restart Calibre
- Make sure the store is enabled under **Get Books -> Choose Stores**

## Tips

Calibre defaults to a maximum of 10 results returned at a time. You can change this maximum at **Get Books -> Configure -> Configure Search -> Maximum number of results...**

For better results and to get the format you are looking for, narrow down your search by title and author as much as possible.

## Advanced Search Mode (Google Mode)

Version 1.4.1 and greater supports Google mode.  Use the "title" field in calibre for this.

For example, to search only `epub` format, type `Some book ext:epub`

Here is the full guide from libgen.gs.

For more precise searches, use these operators:

- **Quotes** (`""`): Search for exact phrases as written in the database
- **Mask** (`*`): Search by part of a word (minimum 3 characters)
- **Excluding words** (`-`): Omit records containing specific words

#### Example
`"Physics and Chemistry" Basi* -technology`

This searches for:
- The exact phrase "Physics and Chemistry"
- Words starting with "Basi"
- Without the word "technology"
