Add native HTTP server, CLI scripts and docs

Implement a native macOS HTTP server for RMHook and wire it into the app. Adds HttpServer.h/.mm (CFSocket-based) with start/stop/isRunning APIs, broadcasts incoming POST /exportFile and /documentAccepted requests to the QML MessageBroker, and starts the server on port 8080 from reMarkable.m. Update CMakeLists to include HttpServer.mm and link Qt Qml when building qmlrebuild mode. Add documentation (docs/HTTP_SERVER.md) and QML snippets for MessageBroker integration, plus Python helper scripts (scripts/http_server.py and scripts/test_http_server.py) for invoking the endpoints. Also add small MessageBroker examples (src/utils/mb.m, src/utils/mb.qml) and update ResourceUtils to include additional QML resources.

```
### Python Example - Export
```python
import requests
import json
# Export configuration
export_data = {
"target": "file:///Users/noham/Desktop/output.pdf",
"id": "12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789abc",
"format": 0, # PDF
"grayscale": False,
"keepPassword": True
}
# Send request
response = requests.post(
"http://localhost:8080/exportFile",
json=export_data
)
print(f"Status: {response.status_code}")
print(f"Response: {response.json()}")
```
### Python Example - Import Document
```python
import requests
# Import configuration
import_data = {
"url": "file:///Users/noham/Desktop/test.pdf",
"password": "",
"directoryId": "2166c19d-d2cc-456c-9f0e-49482031092a",
"flag1": False,
"flag2": False
}
# Send request
response = requests.post(
"http://localhost:8080/documentAccepted",
json=import_data
)
print(f"Status: {response.status_code}")
print(f"Response: {response.json()}")
```
### JavaScript Example - Export
```javascript
// Export configuration
const exportData = {
target: "file:///Users/noham/Desktop/output.pdf",
id: "12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789abc",
format: 0, // PDF
grayscale: false,
keepPassword: true
};
// Send request
fetch("http://localhost:8080/exportFile", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify(exportData)
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log("Success:", data))
.catch(error => console.error("Error:", error));
```
### JavaScript Example - Import Document
```javascript
// Import configuration
const importData = {
url: "file:///Users/noham/Desktop/test.pdf",
password: "",
directoryId: "2166c19d-d2cc-456c-9f0e-49482031092a",
flag1: false,
flag2: false
};
// Send request
fetch("http://localhost:8080/documentAccepted", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify(importData)
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log("Success:", data))
.catch(error => console.error("Error:", error));
```
## Integration with QML
### Export Dialog Integration
Add the MessageBroker snippet from `docs/ExportDialog_MessageBroker_snippet.qml` to your ExportDialog.qml replacement file. This will enable the QML side to receive export requests from the HTTP server.
The MessageBroker listens for "exportFile" signals and automatically calls `PlatformHelpers.exportFile()` with the provided parameters.
### Document Import Integration
Add the MessageBroker snippet from `docs/DocumentAccepted_MessageBroker_snippet.qml` to a QML component (such as GeneralSettings.qml) that has access to PlatformHelpers. This will enable the QML side to receive document import requests from the HTTP server.
The MessageBroker listens for "documentAccepted" signals and automatically calls `PlatformHelpers.documentAccepted()` with the provided parameters.
## Document ID and Directory ID Discovery
To find document and directory IDs, you can:
1. Check the reMarkable application logs when opening documents or folders
2. Use the reMarkable Cloud API
3. Access the local database at `~/Library/Application Support/remarkable/desktop-app/`
4. For the root directory ID, check the logs when navigating to "My Files"
## Troubleshooting
- Ensure the HTTP server started successfully by checking the logs: `2025-12-08 17:32:22.288 reMarkable[19574:1316287] [HttpServer] HTTP server started successfully on http://localhost:8080`
- Test the health endpoint: `curl http://localhost:8080/health`
- Check the Console.app for detailed logging from the MessageBroker and HttpServer
- Verify the document ID and directory ID are correct UUIDs
- Ensure the target/url path is accessible and uses the `file://` prefix
- For imports, verify the target directory exists and is accessible
