Send to Kindle Feature for downloaded chapters

Rachit-Gandhi commented 1 month ago

Describe your suggested feature

Ability to select multiple downloaded chapters and send them to Kindle app, 2 options possible

Using Share to Kindle Feature with Kindle app installed on android (Issue: Only one file at a time allowed as a document)
Using Calibre's technique of sending through mail to the registered kindle mail id. (Issue: Requires approval)

Other details

Future development could be to add in app features like adjusting borders and for the kindle size variations and bundling volumes or chapters for efficient sending. I understand it is detrimental for a reading app to redirect to a diff app or hardware, so this is just to understand what the community thinks of it.

Also I plan to develop it on my own so anyone who wants such a feature can join me, I will be having a fork for same.

To add to this feature, kindle doesn't accept cbz format hence cbz needs to be converted to a more convenient format, as it is a bunch of images zipped together, removing color or compressing them for space makes sense too

This sounds like a really niche feature for a device that doesn't support any conventional comic archiving. Maybe if it was a Kobo, likely not even then. Pointless feature.

do it manually, cause your device sucks for comics
get a device that is just running Android instead

Those are the better options.

You're basically looking for a downloader for your kindle. Mihon is not intended to be used that way. Thus making this an unnecessary feature. Tho in the future (no eta) I do plan to make a downloader using extensions so people can harness the power of extensions more.

P.S. If someone else makes the downloader I'll be happy to make it a part of the Mihon project.
