Disclamer: I can't say for certain this works as is but as far as I am aware it does
A simple notes Command line tool, because I really got tired of either:
A. going from the terminal into another app to write something down for later
B. Forgetting which configuration file is where and not having a convenient place where all my notes could be kept
Plus I really just wanted a project to work on.
pip install tnote-cli
Using tnote is pretty simple when it really comes down to it as there is only one command that has several options.
The index of all the notes you've created can be accessed by $ tnote with no arguments.
At any point you can use $ tn as it is the same because who has time for all those extra keystrokes.
$ tnote
|-------------------------INDEX-------------------------|
|-------------------------RECENT------------------------|
Note ID: todo
Name: todo.md
Path: /Users/username/.tnote/notes/todo.md
|-------------------------------------------------------|
_________________________________
|-------------------------------------------------------|
Note ID: todo
Name: todo.md
Path: /Users/username/.tnote/notes/todo.md
|-------------------------------------------------------|
At first your index obviously won't look like this but create a note and you'll be good.
Up at the top there it will show you want is your most recently edited note which can be accessed
using the $ -r flag.
To create a new note you need only type in a name for a note like so $ tn EXAMPLE and a note will be created and
you'll begin editing it. You can also specify editing with the $ -e flag. The editor used will be the $EDITOR
environment variable but it can also be changed in the config at ~/.tnote.json
$ tnote -e Example
$ tn Example
Tnote was designed with using markdown in mind as it is how I frequently take notes as such if you wish to render it from your terminal use the view flag.
$ tnote -v Example
If you wish to rename a file simply do so by passing the same path other than the filename to the move option:
$ tnote Example -m ~/tnote/notes/new_name.md
otherwise just pass a fully qualified path with filename to move the file:
$ tnote Example -m ~/Example.md
To permenantly delete a note:
$ tnote -d Example
IF you want to change the Id you use to access notes you do so as shown below
$ tnote Example -i new-id
to access this note in the future you'll use new-id
From time to time I like to have some simple scripts on-hand for quick access so I have allowed a way to simply execute from my notes
Execute a file that has permissions:
tnote Script -x
Give a file permission (chmod) and execute it:
tnote Script -xx
