Experimental MyBible module support

Starting from 4.0.639 there is an experimental module support for MyBible module format, more specifically for Bible and Commentary modules.

  1. Connect your device to computer with USB cable.
  2. Create a new folder Android/data/net.bible.android.activity/files/mybible
  3. Copy MyBible module files there. If you have MyBible installed, you can find its module files in Android/data/ua.mybible/files/MyBible (look for *.SQLite3 files).
  4. Restart And Bible and you will find the modules now installed.

Custom add-on modules that provide MyBible documents for And Bible 4.0.640+

And Bible 4.0.640+ supports offering new fonts to users with custom addons modules.

Define category as "And Bible" and your fonts with AndBibleProvidesMyBibleModules keys, like in the following example:

[MyBibleExample]
DataPath=./modules/texts/ztext/MyBibleExample/
Version=1.0
ShortPromo=Provides example MyBible module (FiAapeli; Aapeli Saarisalo UT 1969)
Description=Provides example MyBible module
DistributionLicense=Public Domain
Category=And Bible
ModDrv=RawGenBook
InstallSize=1331668
AndBibleMinimumVersion=640
AndBibleProvidesMyBibleModule=FiAapeli;FIASUTa.SQLite3

Put your MyBible module files (here FIASUTa.SQLite3) in your module folder, i.e. to ./modules/texts/ztext/MyBibleExample/.

AndBibleMinimumVersion refers to build number (the last three digits in the version, i.e 4.0.640).

Please note that this is unsupported and experimental feature. It might or might not work. Use at your own risk!
