# rMAPI



*Note: rMAPI is effectiviely unmaintaied at this point, and this repo will be archived in the next few weeks. Please see [this discussion for more info](https://github.com/juruen/rmapi/discussions/313).*



[![Actions Status](https://github.com/juruen/rmapi/workflows/Go/badge.svg)](https://github.com/juruen/rmapi/actions)



rMAPI is a Go app that allows you to access the ReMarkable Cloud API programmatically.



You can interact with the different API end-points through a shell. However, you can also

run commands non-interactively. This may come in handy to script certain workflows such as

taking automatic backups or uploading documents programmatically.

# Warning: experimental support for the new sync protocol



If `rmapi` stopped working for you in a such way that `gets` were working fine but `puts` didn't seem to work, this

is relevant for you.



A few months ago, the `Remarkable` folks introduced a new sync protocol. This new protocol is being rolling out 

incrementally. Some users are being forced to use it, and some other users are still using the old protocol that

`rmapi` has supported well for a few years now.



Unfortunately, the `rmapi` contributors are still on the old protocol and this makes it more difficult to test

the new protocol's implementation. However, as we know that there are many users who would like to use

`rmapi` with the new protocol, we have added experimental support for it. The always awesome @ddvk did all the work

here!



Although `rmapi` will warn you if it needs to use the new protocol, we'd like to take this opportunity again to reiterate that the

support for the new protocol is experimental, and you should make sure you have a back-up of your files in case something goes wrong.



# Install



## From sources



Install and build the project:



```

git clone https://github.com/juruen/rmapi

cd rmapi

go install

```



## Binary



You can download an already built version for either Linux or OSX from [releases](https://github.com/juruen/rmapi/releases).



## Docker



First clone this repository, then build a local container like



```

docker build -t rmapi .

```



create the .config/rmapi config folder



```

mkdir -p $HOME/.config/rmapi

``` 



and run by mounting the .config/rmapi folder



```

docker run -v $HOME/.config/rmapi/:/home/app/.config/rmapi/ -it rmapi

```



Issue non-interactive commands by appending to the `docker run` command:



```

docker run -v $HOME/.config/rmapi/:/home/app/.config/rmapi/ rmapi help

```

# Commands



Start the shell by running `rmapi`



## List current directory



Use `ls` to list the contents of the current directory. Entries are listed with `[d]` if they

are directories, and `[f]` if they are files.



## Change current directory



Use `cd` to change the current directory to any other directory in the hierarchy.



## Find a file



The command  `find` takes one or two arguments.



If only the first argument is passed, all entries from that point are printed recursively.



When the second argument is also passed, a regexp is expected, and only those entries that match the regexp are printed.



Golang standard regexps are used. For instance, to make the regexp case insensitve you can do:



```

find . (?i)foo

```



## Upload a file



Use `put path_to_local_file` to upload a file  to the current directory.



You can also specify the destination directory:



```

put book.pdf /books

```



## Recursively upload directories and files



Use `mput path_to_dir` to recursively upload all the local files to that directory.



E.g: upload all the files



```

mput /Papers

```



![Console Capture](docs/mput-console.png)



## Download a file



Use `get path_to_file` to download a file from the cloud to your local computer.



## Recursively download directories and files



Use `mget path_to_dir` to recursively download all the files in that directory.



E.g: download all the files



```

mget .

```



## Download a file and generate a PDF with its annoations



Use `geta` to download a file and generate a PDF document

with its annotations.



Please note that its support is very basic for now and only supports one type of pen for now, but

there's work in progress to improve it.



## Create a directoy



Use `mkdir path_to_new_dir` to create a new directory



## Remove a directory or a file



Use `rm directory_or_file` to remove. If it's directory, it needs to be empty in order to be deleted.



You can remove multiple entries at the same time.



## Move/rename a directory or a file



Use `mv source destination` to move or rename a file or directory.



## Stat a directory or file



Use `stat entry` to dump its metadata as reported by the Cloud API.



# Run command non-interactively



Add the commands you want to execute to the arguments of the binary.



E.g: simple script to download all files from the cloud to your local machine



```bash

$ rmapi mget .

```



rMAPI will set the exit code to `0` if the command succeedes, or `1` if it fails.



# Environment variables



- `RMAPI_CONFIG`: filepath used to store authentication tokens. When not set, rmapi uses the file `.rmapi` in the home directory of the current user.

- `RMAPI_TRACE=1`: enable trace logging.

- `RMAPI_USE_HIDDEN_FILES=1`: use and traverse hidden files/directories (they are ignored by default).

- `RMAPI_THUMBNAILS`: generate a thumbnail of the first page of a pdf document

- `RMAPI_AUTH`: override the default authorization url

- `RMAPI_DOC`: override the default document storage url

- `RMAPI_HOST`: override all urls 

- `RMAPI_CONCURRENT`: sync15: maximum number of goroutines/http requests to use (default: 20)
