Sorry to dig up this thread, but does this Google drive sync can be achieved under 3.0.1 FW ? Instructions are not very clear for me and I'm lost around the authorisation code to put in the grive folder (cacert.perm ??). Anyway if someone have a fix/script to get this working I am really interested. Thanks.

Unfortunately, like the author said (1 post above you), it does not work with firmware 3.0.1. I have made a wget-alternative that works with a local web server which you can find above.. I have also made it possible to sync with google drive normally, but only one-way and only supporting public (hidden) google drive "Share" links. Is this something that people are interested in having? |

Being able to download/update book on kobo from Google drive would be nice. For example, using a script to check NEW books on Google drive and download the missing ones would be great. Is this something that I can achieve through your wget process ?

Now all files from the folder can be downloaded to kobo. This command will download all files that are new or have changed: Code:
wget -m -nd --no-parent --no-check-certificate https://www.googledrive.com/host/FOLDER_ID/ |

Here's my solution to download files from Google Drive. I forked your code and modified it a little: https://github.com/spMatti/kobo-wget-sync. Now user just enters the executed wget command directly. It can download only from public folders. I tested a folder with "Anyone with the link" sharing, but the folder index page uses javascript to create the file links so it doesn't work out of the box. I'm thinking about creating Google App script web application that will serve index.html for the wget command. The App script then uses Google Drive changes feed to serve only new files from a selected folder.. |

I will adapt the kobo-wget-sync to include this script so you can choose wget or gdrive and rename the repository. Also this sync-script only adds new files and deletes files if they are removed from google drive. But again, manually adding books through USB will not make them upload to your google drive account. Standby for the update. Thanks spMatti for your dev-work! Also, once I updated the repo I really appreciate if you would help keep it stable |

I've been using spMatti's solution for a couple of weeks now and really like it.
However, I have some trouble to get/keep the virtual sd card mounted. Whenever I connect my kobo glo to my laptop, I can see the files are there. But after disconnecting the sd card isn't being mounted and syncing and reconnecting to a wifi network unfortunately don't help. Any clues on how I can trigger the glo to remount the virtual sd card? EDIT: After looking into this a bit further I must say I'm not sure if it's a problem with the mounting of the virtual SD card or with refreshing the library. After a sync (9 new files downloaded) the log file states the library is being refreshed, but it doesn't show the black screen it usually does after adding new books. (I'm on firmware 3.2.0 on the Kobo Glo) Last edited by rvdgeer; 03-12-2014 at 07:08 AM. |

Looks like https://github.com/spMatti/kobo-wget-sync idea spreading the world.
I've found that http://sendtokobo.com service use agent based on wget too. |

Unfortunately my Glo doesn't update the library after a sync with the sendtokobo mail either... Maybe I should try a factory reset and start over... |

Greetings!
New to this forum and recently discovered that it *may* be possible to read files from Google Drive on my Kobo Touch (currently on version 2.3.1). I, at the risk of sounding like a luddite, have followed the link, downloaded the package (I am on a Mac), but the step #3 in the original instructions "Copy downloaded package to eReader file .kobo/KoboRoot.tgz" befuddles me. I am using a Macbook Pro, and I not a software, or code programmer of any kind. So, could someone maybe walk me through the steps to "Copy a downloaded package" to an "eReader file .kobo/KoboRoot.tgz"? Does this mean I need to access my terminal? or can i do this through Finder? When I search for Kobo in Finder, I simply see the "Setup" file, I cannot drag and drop the downloaded folder into this file, and I do not know how to get the files into the system at all. If there is a "for dummies" version, I would like to give this a shot. Thanks for your time, and any help you may be able to provide! NG |
