Exporting annotations, bookmarks and reading progress to the cloud - Page 2

You could simply check if wpa_supplicant managed to associate with an AP via wpa_cli, that should work just as well, will only block as long as necessary, and doesn't require actual WAN connectivity.

c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader...sync.sh#L8-L20

Or, in a similar fashion, poke sysfs until the network IF is up:

c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader...ce.lua#L15-L27

(Except don't hardcode the IF name, use the ${INTERFACE} env var).

I would be very interested in this, but as I'm no technic, I've got some difficulties: Where do I find the extracting location /mnt/onboard/.adds/notes/? I suppose it should be in the Kobo?

That location points to a hidden folder on your Kobo, ie. when you plug it into your computer you'd have to create it at

Code:

.adds/notes

. For this script to work though you'd need NickelMenu and if you want to sync it, KoboCloud.

Thank you! I'll fail on this, as I have neither NickelMenu nor KoboCloud. Pity!

I've uploaded a small update that removes the KoboCloud dependency (none of you guys were using it anyways) and renames notes with their current date. That allows you to have a history of exported notes, of which currently only 21 (worth for at least 3 weeks) are kept. That number can be configured.

I've uploaded a small update to the script, allowing to export the book progress of PDFs as well.

qkqw · 10-16-2023, 12:53 PM

Fixed a bug in reading progress that didn't list a book when it doesn't have any chapter titles (e.g. PDFs or automatically generated Epubs).

Hello, i've discover your script and i find it pretty awesome. Thanks for your work !

I'm working to get into the world of scripts and database queries. I modified your script to translate it and to sort notes by the most recent, everything works fine but i noticed that some books that I highlighted or "dogeared" dont show in my md file.

I noticed that the book that is not showing is a book that has no chapter names. But the same book is shown in "reading progress".

All my books are converted to kepub by Calibre.

Any clue ?

Sqlite is pretty finicky when it comes to NULL values. You could try to modify the query and do a

Code:

SELECT * FROM Bookmark b...

and see if anything shows up. If so, we'd need to update the formatting, if not, the query would have to be adjusted.

It's the main SQL query in the script which fetches all results

If you look around line 67 in notes.sh file from the 20231016 .zip file, you will see a line starting:

Code:

  FROM Bookmark b

I think what was meant in the @qkqw's post is that for testing, the line should be modified to:

Code:

SELECT * FROM Bookmark b

Good luck!
