It would be nice if block properties could be used for a book (chosen by settings)

  - Title:: some book title
     ISBN:: 98383838-1
     Authors:: John Doe
     Published Art:: ...
     ...
     Description:: what a wonderful book

What do you think?

Hi! Thanks for your suggestion. The current version allows users to choose which book attributes to insert in the Extension options.

Also, I'm thinking about adding in the next version the use of a template to customize the properties insertion. 

Title: {{title}} by {{authors}}
Description: {{description}}
Published At: {{publishedAt}}

What do you think? Does the current configuration work for you or do you think the template is better?

manfredlotz commented 5 months ago

If I understand correctly then the current configuration work allows to choose what I like to get. This is very good.

But it doesn't allow to choose that I like to have :: to get block properties. So there should be either an additional option for this or perhaps the idea of a template might give the user the best flexibility.

You can use this setting in the template option

- Title: {{title}}\n- Authors:: {{authors}}\n- ISBN:: {{isbn}}

Is available in the new version!!

Doesn't work for me. On my system (Linux) I had to change all occurences of \n to \\n. Then it was working ok.
