morningpaper2remarkable

A bot to sync the morning paper to a remarkable tablet.

This authenticates with your remarkable cloud account via the command line on start. I hope to eventually make it run on my remarkable and not have to deal with the cloud.

Hidden Command

I use the bot on my server but sometimes I just want a way to get a paper from a URL to my remarkable from the command line.

I added a hidden command for that download.

You can use it like the following:

$ morningpaper2remarkable download http://nickm.com/trope_tank/10_PRINT_121114.pdf "10 PRINT"

This will download the PDF from the URL at arg[0] put it in a folder, default named papers and name the PDF in that folder arg[1], which above is "10 PRINT".

You can change the folder name with the --dataDir flag.
