Sync on demand

Open berliozz opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Does it possible to create Nickel Menu comand that allow call KoboCloud sync and disallow autostart sync for original script? Why I request it? With new verision of KoboCloud me reader back to main screen when I wake up it. Few seconds I see open book, after it KoboCloud start sync and reader exit to Main screen.

Same for me. I wondered why my Kobo was doing that!

I was create the workaround.

  1. You need to create new patch, where remove kobocloud from autorun on book wake up. (You can download it here: https://disk.yandex.ru/d/hWkpHdGHHuRE_w).
  2. Install nickel menu: https://pgaskin.net/NickelMenu/
  3. Create next config: menu_item:main:Dropbox Sync:nickel_settings :enable:force_wifi chain_success:cmd_spawn:quiet:/usr/local/kobocloud/udev_program.sh chain_success:nickel_misc:rescan_books_full chain_success:nickel_settings:disable:force_wifi

The result is new menu on bottom right of main screen which contain Dropbox Sync item. That looks little bit ugly and now I try to find how to remove this menu and move it to library. Force_wifi need for wireless connection. It not enable WiFi, just force up connection. By default power management rules set device to stay disconnected.
