nookLibrary 1.7 refresh always displays "in progress..." #165

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I have about 4500 books in folders on SD. However, I'm not able to select 
folder-mode for viewing since Refresh never seems to finish. "In progress" 
seems not to go away.

Can't we have an option to stay in folder-mode?

refresh was using lots of memory and causing crashes. So, I changed the logic 
to use a db and a separate process. It's going to be slower now, but will 
complete successfully. 

You are not supposed to scan all the books at the same time. If you upgrade 
from the market app instead of uninstall, it won't scan everything again. 

If you cannot upgrade for some reason, at least backup the data using adb, and 
copy it over after install. 

scanning 4500 books will probably take few hours at the least.

Is there no way to simply toggle a folder view? Why is browsing through folders 
dependent on building a database?

because we won't have any metadata like title. author at that point. It will 
just be filenames.

Having a folder view not tied to a DB allows us with large collections to 
quickly browse them and select books. If I want to read a book by John Brunner, 
I drill down to his folder and select the book I want -- yes, by filename. 
Anyway, thanks for your open source efforts. It's appreciated!

As a workaround, you can use nookFileManager to open books by folder and 
filename.  (Click on the filename, then click the file icon on the left side of 
the touchscreen.)
