Building in Mac OSX #4

Open adammendoza opened 5 years ago

I cloned the repo and I tried to build it but I'm getting several errors. Do I need to make changes to build on Mac?

Hi, I tried to create the project crossplatform, but later realized, that it is dependent on Audible official Windows 10 app (it uses its database file). I kind of thought there is some similar app on Mac but apparently there isn't. Unfortunately I don't have access to Mac so I don't know for sure how audible works on Mac.

So I am afraid this project currently is not suited for Mac development. Let me know if you know about anything that would change what I know about audible on Mac.

I think on Mac it uses iTunes (I just use the iOS app). I was able to get the app going but can't do anything without the database.

Yes, that's exactly the issue - it's all based on the database and unless we can find some access to it, this tool can't do much. AFAIK, iTunes gives you access to the books but not to the bookmarks.

It's good to hear you've been able to run it, though ;)
