setting correct koreader mount path on windows.

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I cannot get the mount path for my kindle e-reader right on my windows machine.

Since the plugin doesn't throw any kind of message, it is a little difficult to tell whether something is happening whenever the user hits "sync".

Also, it is a little unclear from the example in the plugin, whether the mount path has to point to koreader's folder or the root dir of the devices running koreader.

Does the plugin expect unix-style paths only?

It doesn't appear to be. I'm looking at the console on desktop, it looks like if there's a leading backslash in the file path it'll try to pop "C:" in front of it. and if I don't it'll try to search inside of the obsidian vault.

What worked for me on windows just now was copying all the .sdr folders with all of the highlights and whatnot into the windows filesystem and pointing the plugin at that. I tried using it on my phone but it doesn't appear to be mobile-enabled.

What I'm going to do is use syncthing to automate that and just run it once in a while.
