I've finished the Onyx Boox device plugin at https://github.com/davidfor/calibre-annotations/pull/21 . Please review (I've attached some screenshots in there as well).

However, the only issue I'm facing is imported annotations not being sorted chronologically, even though I've specified the "ann_mi.location_sort" property as an integer offset from the book start.

Any idea why this might be happening?

Hey,

quick question. Is it possible to export Boox highlights via this Calibre plugin to look like this so without the timestamp etc.?

Figured that out. Even though I've specified "location_sort" as integer internally this plugin inserts them into SQLite table where the "location_sort" column is text and sorts them as text The only way to make it work (as I've found in other device classes) is to format it as a zero-padded string, which I've done.

Now it's ready to merge.

This plugin only imports annotations into a Calibre's book custom field. It doesn't export anything.

However, you might ask Calibre developer or report a feature request to make such an export function.

I've tripped over that in the past. I don't remember why the original author did it that way.

And I haven't had a chance to look at your code. It will probably be the weekend when I do it. I am also slowly doing the work to support calibre6/Qt6. Most of that isn't hard, just a bit time consuming.

As @aik099 said, the purpose of this plugin is to fetch annotations from devices/apps into a column in calibre. That is formatted a HTML. If you want to produce some other format, you can export that (either by creating a catalogue or using one of the calibre command line tools) and then format it however you want to.

@davidfor, one last thing I've noticed about the Boox annotations import: I'm importing from the SQLite database and therefore I'm not getting the latest changes while the AlReaderX app (that holds database connection open) is running. This is due to the specifics of SQLite, where it writes all changes into a separate file and only merges them back into the database upon connection close.

Is there any way to warn the user about such an effect, that before Boox annotation import he must quit the AlReaderX app?

P.S.
Kobo seems to be also using the SQLite database, but I'm not sure if it holds it open all the time.

The Kobo devices close the database when they connect to a PC. In fact, they unmount the partition and load something to present it as a mass storage device. Or at least they are supposed to. There have been bugs And I know all about those problems.

There is no current way to do this. But, adding a mechanism to do a warning or prompt is a good idea. I think adding an extra method in the API to return a message to be displayed or none or an empty string. Then the plugin could display this with a continue/cancel type prompt when the annotation fetch is started. I'd have to check the code to make sure there is a good place to do it, but, it should work.

Sorry, work and some personal stuff have been getting in the way. And only remembering it when I absolutely can't do anything doesn't help. At this point, it will probably be early next week before I get to it.

Beta: Add support for AlReaderX reader app on the Boox
I have (finally) found some time, and more importantly, remembered, to merge the code from @aik099 to add support for the AlReaderX reader app on the Boox.

The list of changes in this beta are:
  • New: Added support AlReaderX reader app on the Boox Android-based devices. Thanks to @aik099.
  • Change: Some code cleanup.
  • Fix: Handle change collections library. Problem reported by @frailtyy.

Hopefully I didn't break anything when merging the code. Unfortunately, I cannot test this as I do not have the device.

Please test the beta and report any issues. I will release this officially when I have had some confirmation that it is working.

@davidfor, should I upload this ZIP as a new plugin and it will replace an existing plugin automatically?

Download the zip file, open calibre and go to the Plugins page of the preferences. Then click the "Load plugin from file" button and select the file. This will install it in place of the current version.

@davidfor, my apologies for the long testing period. I've tested the plugin beta version and, at least, functionally for the Boox device import works as expected.

Update to version 1.17.0
I have just updated the plugin to version 1.17.0. The main change in this is to add support for the AlReaderX reader app on the Boox Android-based devices. This is thanks to @aik099.

The release notes are:
  • New: Added support for AlReaderX reader app on the Boox Android-based devices. Thanks to @aik099.
  • Change: Some code cleanup.
  • Fix: Handle change in Python collections library.

As usual, calibre will announce the update in the next hour or so. And if there are any issues, please post them in this thread.
