ldsnotes 0.1.4

Unofficial Python API to read your annotations from lds.org

LDS Notes

Unofficial Python API to interact with your annotations from churchofjesuschrist.org. I reverse engineered a bit of the API to download content/user notes from churchofjesuschrist.org. Currently can only download notes, working on uploading next.

• Free software: MIT license

• Documentation: https://ldsnotes.readthedocs.io.

Roadmap

• Update Content/Annotation classes to inherit from addict.Dict. Should make upload easier later.

• 2-way sync.

• Make tests (and setup CI with github) using dummy account/notes.

Handling Highlights

The way churchofjesuschrist.org handles where highlights are is a bit difficult to reverse engineer. They save where your highlight is by counting words - both from the start, and from the end. The difficult part is figuring out what they consider a “word”. For example, a footnote/reference counts as a word, and a comma after a word with a footnote also counts as one. This makes things very case by case to get things right. If you have a problem with a highlight being a few words off, please open an issue with your where your highlight is at.

TL;DR Highlights are hard, open issue if yours are off.
