function test_remarkable_authentication

Maturity: 46

Asynchronous test function that validates reMarkable Cloud authentication and verifies access to the root folder by listing its contents.

File:
/tf/active/vicechatdev/e-ink-llm/test_remarkable.py
Lines:
16 - 71
Complexity:
moderate

Purpose

This function serves as a diagnostic tool to test the complete authentication flow with reMarkable Cloud services. It verifies that the rmcl library is installed, initializes the RemarkableCloudManager, authenticates with the cloud service, and validates access by retrieving and displaying the root folder contents. It provides detailed console output with status indicators to help users troubleshoot authentication issues and includes instructions for first-time authentication setup.

    except Exception as e:
        print(f"โŒ Test failed with error: {e}")
        return False

Return Value

Returns a boolean value: True if authentication and folder access are successful, False if any step fails (missing library, authentication failure, or folder access failure). May also return False implicitly if an exception occurs during execution.

Dependencies

  • asyncio
  • sys
  • pathlib
  • rmcl
  • remarkable_cloud

Required Imports

import asyncio
import sys
from pathlib import Path
from remarkable_cloud import RemarkableCloudManager

Conditional/Optional Imports

These imports are only needed under specific conditions:

import rmcl

Condition: Required for reMarkable Cloud API functionality; checked at runtime with try-except block

Required (conditional)

Usage Example

import asyncio
from pathlib import Path
from remarkable_cloud import RemarkableCloudManager

async def main():
    # Run the authentication test
    result = await test_remarkable_authentication()
    
    if result:
        print("Authentication test passed!")
    else:
        print("Authentication test failed. Check output for details.")

# Execute the async function
if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Best Practices

  • This function must be called with asyncio.run() or within an existing async context
  • Ensure rmcl library is installed before running: pip install rmcl
  • For first-time authentication, obtain a one-time code from https://my.remarkable.com/connect/desktop
  • The function provides detailed console output for debugging; monitor the output for specific error messages
  • Authentication tokens are cached by the rmcl library, so subsequent runs will use existing credentials
  • The function gracefully handles missing dependencies and provides installation instructions
  • Network connectivity is required for cloud authentication and folder access
  • Consider wrapping calls to this function in try-except blocks for production use
