Feature Request: New CLI function: “export”
-
Hi,
I enjoy Day One Journal. This is a very important app to organize my life.
I have one feature request.
“dayone2” executable should support “export”, which is the same function in the UI.Ideally, if export can output a specified format, that would be great. Such as “–export-json”.
Motivation:
I use both the app on the phone, and on my Mac. Day One serves me not only for Journal, but also for TODO list. The dates are the due dates for TODO items.
For many reason, if these data can be exported to my Google Calendar, that will simplify my task management a lot.
Problem:
Of course, I can download in “.zip” file and unzip to get the json. This is problem, 1) it bundles media files, unnecessarily, 2) remove old file/download / unzip , these are cumbersome. If “dayone2 export –export-json” spits out simple Json output on STDOUT, I can simply pipe to my Google calendar updater.
Please consider this CLI feature. -
