Project 2: obsidian-kindle-export

An Obsidian-plugin which sends your notes to your Kindle/PocketBook as .epub file

Work paperless

Introduction

I was using Calibre and Pandoc-Export plugin, but I was wondering about a short way to export your .md files in one command and add all embedded files. So you dont have to use a .pdf file. The plugin creates a Kindle: Export command, which sends all embedded images and .md files to a PHP backend (Host your own private PHP Backend!) which converts it to a .epub file and sends it via email to your Kindle/PocketBook. If you are not hosting on your own, you will send private data to my server. Please be aware of this. I won't save or read your data!

New open Backend:

https://md2epub.staneks.de/

To Do's:

• Export images
• Export embedded .md files
• Export embedded .mp3 files (Pocketbook)
• Obsidian cover for the books --> Due to the .epub format, the cover will not appear on the bookshelf
• Table of contents
• <div style="page-break-after: always;"></div> is working
• %%Excludes%% are invisible
• External links
• External embedded images
• Exclude metadata
• Become a Communityplugin 🎉
• Create workaround for other embedded files
• Add ==highlighting==
• .epub export
• Footnotes
• Foldercover or filecover
• .html export (Archive)
• .pdf export (would be nice for IOS & Android)

Extra features (no kindle data needed)

• .md export (mergedown)
  • Audio export
  • Video export
  • define own exportpath

Just try it!

For embedding local images, please use the following format: ![[image.jpg]]

Fill in your data for your Kindle/PocketBook and your mailadress. Read your notes on your Kindle/PocketBook.

Mergedown: Combine all your embedded images and .md files in one .md file.

If you have problems with the plugin, please let me know.
