Hi, Paola. Here's the simple script I wrote:
#!/bin/sh
sudo curlftpfs -o allow_other
ftp://root:-@192.168.1.79 ~/pocketbook/
rm -r ~/pocketbook/mnt/ext2/calibre/
cp -r /mnt/cellar/media/ebooks/calibre/ ~/pocketbook/mnt/ext2/
sudo umount ~/pocketbook/
I suspect this wouldn't work in windows, but I'm sure that the same thing could be accomplished in windows with a batch (.bat) file that would be very similar to this, with only slight modifications.
::: If you are using Linux, do the following :::
1-Install curlftpfs
2-Make sure that when you set up the preferred wireless connection on the PB902, you give it a static ip address. This part is easy but if you haven't done it before, let me know and I will walk you through it.
2-The get_root app can be run without modifications. When run, it will put the PB902 on the network and ip address designated in step 1. There is no installation required. Just put the "get_root.app" file at the root folder of the device. Follow the link above to get the app.
3-Run my script with the following modifications:
-substitute "192.168.1.79" with the ip address that you assigned to your PB902
-substitute all instances of "~/pocketbook" with the path to an empty folder on your computer of your choosing--any empty folder will do (note: ~/pocketbook is Linux shorthand for /home/Euclid/pocketbook)
-the "/mnt/ext2/calibre/" part can be left alone if you are using an SD card like me (path to SD card on device is /mnt/ext2/)
-substitute "/mnt/cellar/media/ebooks/calibre/" with the path to the calibre folder on your computer
That should be it! Once it's all setup, it's really easy to periodically "sync" your entire Calibre library wirelessly onto your device: run the get_root app on PB902, wait until the wireless icon shows up on the bottom of the device, then run your modified version of my script on your computer. When the script is done running, turn the pocketbook off and then back on so that the wifi and bluetooth disconnect. All your Calibre books and news will be in your device's library.
