Command-line transfer of files onto the NOOK
Forgive me if this is not the right page for stuff like this. nookdevs has been a great resource for me, and would like to give my contribution in appreciation.
Not sure if this is useful... but I like to push content on to my nook from the PC without bothering with usb cords. I have created some bash code for the personal computer that will do this. Simply copy and paste it into a file. Name it and give the correct permissions and away you go. There is some configurations but that is all explained. Simply call the script and specify the files on the argument list, and all should be pushed onto the nook.
The script has the following requirements on the PC/Network
1) The PC has the android SDK installed
2) The PC must have a BASH shell running (linux, Mac, and Windows with cygwin)
3) The PC and Nook are in the same network subnet (ie same Local Area Network), not sure if adb works over NAT (routers) never really tried but I don't recommend it. I doubt the android sdk was meant for remote development.
The script has requirements on the Nook
1) Nook is turned on
2) Nook is connected to the wireless router
3) Nook has adb up and running (its been rooted)
Example of typical usage:
user:~>file_1 file_2 /path/to/file_3 connected to 192.168.0.102:5555 375 KB/s (62242 bytes in 0.161s) 475 KB/s (42242 bytes in 0.061s) 275 KB/s (82242 bytes in 0.261s) user:~>
Configuration notes
1) I assume you have all hacked your nook and have adb installed on your personal computer. You will need to specify the path to that in the script (see comments in the script on where to do that)
2) Make sure you edit in the IP address of your nook. Unless you like editing text files, it is a good idea to assign the nook a static IP in the DHCP server. This way the nook will always have the same IP and this script will always work.
The script:
#! /bin/bash
# Add the path to the adb tool in the quotations
ADB="/path/to/adb"
# this is where the content is placed, it is the equivalent of the my documents folder
# the expansion card is simply "/sdcard/"
NOOK_HOME="/system/media/sdcard/my documents/"
# INSERT NOOK IP in the quotations below
# Assigning nook a static IP on the DHCP table is needed
# to avoid constant updating of this file every time the IP changes
NOOK_IP="IP ADDRESS ie 192.168.0.100"
# Try to connect to the device
$ADB connect $NOOK_IP
# tests to see if we are connected
if [ "$?" -ne "0" ] ; then
exit ;
fi
# Adds each file specified on the command line
for i in "$@" ; do
# Note that the path name is stripped from the arguments,
# so any sub folders will not be copied, it will all be placed at top level
$ADB push $i "$NOOK_HOME${i##*/}" ;
done
# disconnect from the device
$ADB disconnect
Some notes:
The script doesn't always work first time. It is usually problems with connecting to the device. Just try it multiple times. Ocasionally starting and stopping adb on the nook was required. Then in extreme events it requires reseting the nook wireless connection by forcing a reconnect on the nook and/or restarting the router itself.
The script is meant for any POSIX environment (ie Linux, MAC, etc.). Windows users you will have to run cygwin or something similar to use this script. Sorry, but I am a Linux man.
- that's not really useful to me personally, but to add to requirements - adb needs to be running over wifi. As of late 2.4.x softroot that's disabled by default. There's samba server ported to android (i dont have url but it comes up on top in google). I think it would be more beneficial to get that running on nook. I would move it to your Talk page. --Spec 08:23, 6 December 2010 (PST)
Automatically convert scanned images into a Nook Optimized PDF
This is an application created by pilotmm. Apologies, but didn't go through the trouble of uploading the source onto a repository. Truth is I do not know how to use repositories or creating application pages. However I figured it would be better to share a useful application in a messy way than to keep it all to myself.
This is a program for those that want to digitize their books and print-outs for reading on the nook. After scanning and possibly some cropping you should have a bunch of images like 1.jpg, 2.jpg etc. When one executes this program inside the directory, it will seek out all the images with the names 1.jpg 2.jpg etc. to create the document. The pdf document is optimized for Nook viewing, this means that the pdf pages are sized to the recommended dimensions for pdf viewing on the nook, furthermore the images are scaled to the resolution of the nook screen, finally there are no margins. This means that the document will use maximum space on the nook screen, and be displayed with minimal distortion.
The program has a couple requirements. These requirements are not needed at compile time, thus one can compile then pass the --help argument to learn how to use it and the requirements.
Installation calls for copying the following source code and compiling. There are three files, the first is "jpg2nook.cpp" and the source code is:
#include#include
#include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include using namespace std; // geometric constants const double pageW=3.54; const double pageH=4.80; const unsigned long imageW=600; const unsigned long imageH=800; // file name constants const char* latexBase="jpg2nook_latex"; const char* latexFile="jpg2nook_latex.tex"; const char* latexPdf="jpg2nook_latex.pdf"; const char* deleteFilter="jpg2nook_"; const char* defExtension=".pdf"; class command; class imageFile; // algorithm variables const char* title="Untitled"; const char* author="Unknown"; const char* name="untitled.pdf"; double width=pageW; double height=pageH; unsigned long iW=imageW; unsigned long iH=imageH; bool keepAspect=true; list preComms; list postComms; list imageList; #include "jpg2nook_helper.h" int main(int argc,char** argv) { int retVal=0; fstream latexOut; try { // process the arguments if(!processArgs(argc,argv)) throw 1; // open/create the latex source file latexOut.open(latexFile,fstream::out); if(!latexOut.is_open()) { cout << "Failed to open " << latexFile << endl; throw 1; } // Print the tex header printHeader(latexOut,width,height,title,author); // Load in all the images getImages(); // Loop through for each image name for(list ::iterator it=imageList.begin();it!=imageList.end();it++) { // create a temporary copy cp((*it).original(),(*it).custom()); // apply pre-processing commands for(list ::iterator itComm=preComms.begin();itComm!=preComms.end();itComm++) { (*itComm).exec((*it).custom()); } // resize resize((*it).custom(),iW,iH); // apply post-processing commands for(list ::iterator itComm=postComms.begin();itComm!=postComms.end();itComm++) { (*itComm).exec((*it).custom()); } // convert to pdf convert((*it).custom(),(*it).pdf()); // print the image into tex document printImage(latexOut,(*it).pdf()); } // write the tex footer printFooter(latexOut); // compile the pdf pdflatex(latexBase,6); // move the pdf to the correct places char lastName[256]; mv(latexPdf,appendExtension(name,defExtension,lastName)); } catch(int e) { retVal=e; cout << "An error has occured, exiting" << endl; } // delete all the extra files that were created clean(); latexOut.close(); latexOut.clear(); return 0; }

Installation requires one to copy and past the above text into the files and give those files the same names as explained above. Then one can compile is by executing the command:
g++ jpg2nook.cpp -o jpg2nook
Then one can move the new executable "jpg2nook" to the ~/bin/ directory to make it available in all directories.
The options and requirements as given by --help option:
This program creates pdf document for reading on the NOOK e-reader. The program assumes that each page
will be given as an image. The assumed image names are '1.jpg' for the first page, '2.jpg' for the
second, 'n.jpg' for every other subsequent page.
This program relies on the imagemagic 'convert' and 'mogrify' commands.
See 'www.imagemagick.org' to install.
This program also relies on the 'pdflatex' command to convert the document into a pdf.
See 'www.tug.org/applications/pdftex/' for more information
This program also relies on the 'rm', 'mv' and 'cp' commands to process various files.
These are standard commands on any POSIX complient system, see administrator if they are not there
-L Create in landscape.
-S Create to read with nook sideways (scales all by h/w).
-2 Doubles size.
-pre preprocessor_command Apply an image processing command before resize.
All arguments up to '\;' are interpreted as a command and arguments.
The end argument '\;' must be given to signify the end of the command.
The argument '{}' is reserved as a placeholder for the image name.
-post postprocessor_command apply an image processing command after resize.
All arguments up to '\;' are interpreted as a command and arguments.
The end argument '\;' must be given to signify the end of the command.
The argument '{}' is reserved as a placeholder for the image name.
-W document_width Specify a custom document width in inches. If only -W is given then
then the aspect ratio is preserved
-H document height Specify a custom document height in inches. If only -H is given then
then the aspect ratio is preserved
-T title Give a title for the pdf document
-A author Give and author for the pdf document
-n name Give a name for the final pdf.
The '.pdf' extension automatically appended if not given.
-h or --help Shows a list of options
Finally, below is an example of typical usage. Note that the -pre argument is increasing the contrast of the scanned images.
jpg2nook -T "Optimum aerodynamic design using the Navier-Stokes equations" -A "A. Jameson, N. A. Pierce, L. Martinelli" -n "Optimum_aerodynamic_design_using_the_Navier_Stokes_equations"-pre mogrify -contrast-stretch 0%x100% {} \;
Hope you all enjoy.... Bold text
