  • How do I write a script?

    Instead of opening multiple browsers, it would be easier and more efficient to just load the data with something like imbox. Saves you the effort of opening browsers, and is likely better in general.
  • exporting handwritten dataset as text, export it and use it as a csv

    Yeah, I’m pretty sure the Remarkable OCR is not up to these kinds of tasks unfortunately. If you know some coding you could write something that’d likely work well in Python using for ex. this for receiving the mail attachment and this for converting the PDF to CSV. This is in case you’d write your data as a table on the Remarkable, which I guess is preferable to writing something like (0.5, 8.4, -0.3). If you’d rather do it that way, there are other more suitable OCR tools like this one. The checkbox use-case in the comment above would also be possible by modifying this approach. DM if you’d like to discuss further work.
  • Conflict in 'self' argument resulting in AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'
    1 project | /r/learnpython | 9 Sep 2021
    I believe this has something to do with the conflict between the 'self' argument. The imbox library has this class Imbox which also uses the 'self' argument (Github link). The function works as expected when I remove the '@celery.task' decorator.
