To login type the servername (e.g. https://domainname) or the WebDAV URL (e.g. htts://domainname/remote.php/dav/files/UUID) (You can look up the WebDAV URL in the files app->seetings.), Username and Password. If you have 2FA enabled, you have to set up an App specific password. (https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/user_manual/en/user_2fa.html#using-client-applications-with-two-factor-authentication)
Next you will be asked where you want to save the nextcloud files. To download a file, click on it. If you want to sync a folder click it until an menu appears. In this menu select "sync". The folder sync will only sync files that are "newer" on the server side. It ignores .sdr files.
Currently there are multiple methods to build the application
The easiest way to build applications seems to be as of now to use the Dockerimage. (https://github.com/Skeeve/SDK_6.3.0/tree/docker)
First you need to install the basic build tools for linux.
Then you have to download the Pocketbook SDK (https://github.com/pocketbook/SDK_6.3.0/tree/5.19).
In the CMakeLists.txt of this project you have to set the root of the TOOLCHAIN_PATH to the location where you saved the SDK. This could be for example:
SET (TOOLCHAIN_PATH "../../SDK/SDK_6.3.0/SDK-B288")
Then you have to setup cmake by:
cmake .
To build the application run:
make
Use as your own risk! Even though the possibility is really low, the application could harm your device or even break it.
