After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Convert your Kobo annotations to Readwise highlights

Build Status

Why?

Readwise is an application allowing you to import highlights from books, articles, or any source of content you find inspiring and/or worth remembering. It will then resurface these highlights at a frequency of your choosing.

Readwise integrates with various services and platforms to ease the process of importing highlights, but unfortunately it is not compatible with Kobo.

kobwise is a small command-line application offering a bridge between the two, converting your Kobo annotations to a .csv file that is compatible with Readwise.

Instal

kobwise is written in PHP and is installed using Composer:

Make sure the ~/.composer/vendor/bin directory is in your system's PATH.

Show me how If it's not already there, add the following line to your Bash configuration file (usually `~/.bash_profile`, `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`, etc.): If the file doesn't exist, create it. Run the following command on the file you've just updated for the change to take effect:

Use

All you need to do is call the convert command on the annotation file:

It will create a new .csv file in the current folder, which you can then upload to Readwise.

A help menu is also available upon running kobwise with no arguments:

Known limitations

Kobo's annotation files are formatted in such a way that it is not easy to distinguish separate annotations from different paragraphs belonging to the same annotation.

It is therefore recommended to skim through the annotation file beforehand, and to delete any empty lines between paragraphs that should belong together.

As Readwise doesn't allow its users to permanently delete highlights, it is also recommended to review the .csv file before import.

Wait. I can export my Kobo annotations?

For some reason, Kobo does not enable this option by default, and you need to manually update a configuration file to do so.

The steps are the following:

  1. Plug your Kobo to your computer
  2. Open the eReader.config file at the root of your Kobo
  3. Add this line at the very end: [FeatureSettings] ExportHighlights=true
  4. Save the file and eject your Kobo
  5. From your Kobo library, tap the three dots in front of the book you want to export annotations from
  6. Tap Export Annotations
  7. Connect your Kobo to your computer again
  8. You should now see a .txt file at the root, containing the annotations
