Save to iOS quotebook app from Marvin

[tsolignani]

Fancy saving a piece of text to iOS app quotebook from a book you're reading in Marvin?

Just create a custom command like that:

quotebook://x-callback-url/add?quote={text}&author={author}&source={title}&x-success=marvinapp:

That would populate the new record with quote content, author and book's title.

Enjoy.

Something broke your Quotebook string ... iOS or new Marvin. Any chance of getting it working with new Marvin and iOS 10._xx?

Thank you!!!!!!!!

I quit using the both of them, quotebook without regret at all (I never managed to make it sync properly) and marvin with the most regret, since I switched to Android. Now I am using google play books as a reading software, which is lame but at least syncs amongst my several peripherals, and simplenote to save quote, passages, etc. Lucretius fortunately did the trick anyway. Thank you and have a nice day.

Hello,

Because the development of Quotebook is discontinued, I decided to move to Quoteskeeper.

The problem is that I cannot set up the custom command to work with it.

I tried:

quoteskeeper://x-callback-url/add?quote={text}&author={author}&source={title}&x-success=marvin3:

but nothing happens

Can someone help me or suggest another ipad app that supports uch an integration?

I played around with Bear http://www.bear-writer.com/ and found it quite interesting. Supports Markdown and has a powerful url scheme (see FAQ on their webpage).

Example:
Create note with quote and add tags:
bear://x-callback-url/create?title={author}:%20{title}&text=Kapitel:%20/{chapter}/%0A*%C2%AB{text}%C2%BB*&tags=Zitate,B%C3%BCcher,Le sen&x-success=marvin3:

Append additional quotes to the same note:
bear://x-callback-url/add-text?title={author}:%20{title}&text=---%0A%0AKapitel:%20/{chapter}/%0A*%C2%AB{text}%C2%BB*&mode=append&x-success=marvin3:

I tried this but I get message, ‘Oops You don’t have any app installed that can execute this command.’
I can use Quotebook but the Bear app looked interesting so wanted to try it.

Any chance to get this working in Mapleread? I've tried but always come up with error ...

Make sure the URL scheme is valid and the corresponding app has been installed first.

I have both Bear and Mapleread installed.
