Kobo E-Reader Hoarder to Pocket Proxy

This project aims to convert the Pocket App on the Kobo E-Reader, specifically the Kobo Clara model, into a Hoarder reading device using Typescript and Hono. The device utilizes the modified host file on the Kobo Clara, accessible via ssh on the Clara. It can be achieved by following the tutorial available at https://yingtongli.me/blog/2018/07/30/kobo-telnet.html.

How it works

This currently runs within your local network. By making changes to the Kobo Clara's host file, it acts as a proxy server that can redirect and intercept network requests from the e-reader. This allows us to intercept Pocket traffic, redirect it to Hoarder, and intercepts the archive.

Technology Used

• Typescript: The project is developed using Typescript, a typed superset of JavaScript, which offers improved tooling and code maintainability.
• Hono: A small, simple, and ultrafast web framework for the edge. It provides a robust set of features for building web applications and APIs.
• Cloudflare Workers: The project can be deployed to Cloudflare Workers for edge computing capabilities.
