Linux Magazine PDF downloader for subscribers

Installation

Beside the releases at Releases there also is a snap lmdownload in the Snap Store and a docker container.

You can install it by typing: snap install lmdownload

Afterwards you should be able to run QOwnNotes with the command lmdownload.

Snaps are working on many Linux distributions like Ubuntu, Arch Linux, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, Gentoo Linux, OpenWRT, open embedded and yocto project.

Please note that you are only able to download PDF files to your home-directory if you are installing the snap (unless you are breaking out of the confinement by running /snap/lmdownload/current/lmdownload directly).

Docker Compose

This is an example to run lmdownload every 12h with Docker Compose:

version: '3.7'
services:
  # https://github.com/pbek/lmdownload
  lmdownload:
    image: pbeke/lmdownload
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      - smtp
    environment:
      - LM_USERNAME=user
      - LM_PASSWORD=pass
    volumes:
      # local folder must be owned by uid 1000!
      - /home/user/Media/Magazines/Linux-Magazine:/home/app/pdf
    entrypoint: |
      sh -c 'sh -s <<EOF
      trap "break;exit" SIGHUP SIGINT SIGTERM
      while /bin/true; do
        /bin/lmdownload -username $$LM_USERNAME -password $$LM_PASSWORD -notification-email $$LM_USERNAME -from-email noreply@example.com -smtp-host=smtp
        sleep 43200
      done
      EOF'
