Users: MyBible module support (Experimental)

Starting from 4.0.640 there is an experimental module support for MyBible module format, more specifically for Bible, Commentary and Dictionary (starting from 4.0.641) 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.

Module creators

It is now possible to create "Sword-like" modules that use MyBible backend instead of Sword (And Bible 4.0.640+).

If you'd like to see some MyBible module distributed in And Bible, please suggest it here.

Now it is possible to create modules that use MyBible style sqlite3 data.

To implement this, first create config file (here, mods.d/FiAapeli.conf):

[FiAapeli]
DataPath=./modules/texts/MyBible/FiAapeli/
AndBibleMinimumVersion=640
ModDrv=MyBibleBible
CompressType=ZIP
BlockType=BOOK
Encoding=UTF-8
SourceType=OSIS
Lang=fi
LCSH=Bible.Finnish
Description=Aapeli Saarisalo UT 1969 viitteineen
Versification=KJV

put your MyBible module file (here FIASUTa.SQLite3) in your module folder to your module folder with name module.SQLite3, i.e here: ./modules/texts/MyBible/FiAapeli/module.SQLite3.

AndBibleMinimumVersion refers to build number (the last three digits in the version, i.e 4.0.640). ModDrv can be either MyBibleBible, MyBibleCommentary, or MyBibleDictionary (support starting from 4.0.641) depending on the type of the content.

Module examples: FiAapeli, MyBibleStrongs
