Transfer files from a Zotero collection to a folder on a reMarkable.

This uses the Zotero and reMarkable API to keep your reMarkable updated with a folder from Zotero. In short, it fetches a collection from zotero, uses CalDAV to download all corresponding .pdf and .epub files and finally uploads them to the reMarkable cloud. Finally, the zotero collection is cleared to prevent uploading the same file multiple times (so dont use it on your main library but create a separate fodler!)

Installation & Usage

Install via pip:

> pip install git+https://github.com/danijoo/sync_zotero_remarkable

On first run, you will be asked to provide login information to zotero, your associated caldav api and remarkable:

> sync_zotero_rm

zot_api_key: *******
zot_user_id: *******
zot_collection: unread_files
webdav_url: *******
webdav_user: *******
webdav_password: *******
rm_folder: Read me!

Caution: All login credentials are stored in clear text in your home folder (~/.zotero_remarkable.yaml). So you probably do not want to use this on publicly accessible devices.

And then:

Fetching collection from Zotero... Done.
