Currently only tested on Ubuntu-touch emulator with framework
ubuntu-sdk-14.10 for armhf.
The ubuntu-touch port is binary compatible with the Kobo port
major changes in this PR are:
1. rename the emulator device to sdl device since both the emulator
and the ubuntu-touch target use libsdl to handle input/output.
2. ubuntu-touch app has no write access to the installation dir so
all write-outs should be in a seperate dir definded in `datastorage`.
The 'KOSync' plugin will synchronize furthest reading progress
across different koreader devices after users registering their
devices.
The synchronizing service is open-sourced as the project
[koreader/koreader-sync-server](https://github.com/koreader/koreader-sync-server).
This is a major overhaul of the hardware abstraction layer.
A few notes:
General platform distinction happens in
frontend/device.lua
which will delegate everything else to
frontend/device/<platform_name>/device.lua
which should extend
frontend/device/generic/device.lua
Screen handling is implemented in
frontend/device/screen.lua
which includes the *functionality* to support device specifics.
Actually setting up the device specific functionality, however,
is done in the device specific setup code in the relevant
device.lua file.
The same goes for input handling.
This plugin implements a simple Calibre Companion protocol that
communicates with Calibre Wireless Server from which users can
send documents to Koreader devices directly with WIFI connection.
Note that Calibre Companion(CC) is a trade mark held by MultiPie Ltd.
The Android app Calibre Companion provided by MultiPie is closed-source.
This plugin only implements a subset function of CC according to the
open-source smart device driver from Calibre source tree.
More details can be found at calibre/devices/smart_device_app/driver.py.
The "My Clipping" file that storing highlights and notes for Kindle
native readers could also be parsed and exported. The parser is
implemented in `evernote.koplugin/clip.lua`.
Parsed highlights and notes in one book will be packed and rendered
into html node with a slt2 template `note.tpl` that complies with
evernote markup language(ENML).
Finally the evernote client will create or update note entries and
push them to Evernote cloud.
