[Kavita] Swipe pagination on epub reader

[YodaDaCoda]

Idea Description

Tap pagination is all well and good, but sometimes I wanna swipe.

Specifically, I have a little bluetooth page turner that works by acting as an input device that emulates swipes on the screen. It doesn't work with Kavita, but does work with other ereader apps that allow swipe-to-paginate.

There is swipe pagination?

I'm guessing you mean for the epub reader as there is already swipe pagination in the archive/image reader. Please update your discussion to specify which reader you are hoping to include this on.

Yep didn't realise the different readers were different components, I really only use kavita for epubs

I've been looking into hardware page turning, would love to know what you're using and what platform

I got this jibber, but there's heaps like it. Works nicely with Android, though you gotta double-tap the button to get left/right swipe (single-tap action is up/down swipe).

There is a draft PR but needs some serious work, if anyone wants to take the mantle up and drive this home:
