rednotebook 2 journee skeleton

[marcorighi]

Hi, I propose a rednotebook 2 journee converter. It has to be improved.

from os import listdir
from os.path import isfile, join
import re

sourcedir = '../01_datainput/'
destdir = '../02_dataoutput/'


sourcefiles = [f for f in listdir(sourcedir) if isfile(join(sourcedir, f))]



for sourcefile in sourcefiles:
    f = open((sourcedir + sourcefile), "r")
    daynote=""
    isfirstmounthday = True
    for line in f:
        newdaysearch = re.search("^.[0-9]:$", line)
        if newdaysearch: # is it the line that contains the new day?
            if not isfirstmounthday: # if it is not the first day of the file, I have to save the gathered information
                if isopensinglequotepresent:
                    daynote = daynote[::-1]
                    daynote = daynote.replace("'", "", 1)
                    daynote = daynote[::-1]
                daynote=daynote.replace('\\n', '\n').replace('\\t', '\t')
                fwrite=open((destdir + filedestname), "w")
                fwrite.write(daynote)
                fwrite.close()
            daynote=""
            #let's compute the new filename
            newdaystring=line.replace(":","")
            newdaystring=newdaystring.replace(" ","")
            newdaystring = newdaystring.replace('\n' '', "")

            filedestname=sourcefile.replace(".txt","")
            filedestname=filedestname+'-'+newdaystring+".txt"
            isfirstmounthday = False
        else:
            if daynote == "":
                isopensinglequotepresent = False
                line=line.replace("  text: ","")
                if line[0] == "'":
                    line = line.replace("'", "",1)
                    isopensinglequotepresent=True
            #if not re.search(". *'$",line):
            daynote=daynote + line
    # saving the last day in the file
    if isopensinglequotepresent:
        daynote = daynote[::-1]
        daynote = daynote.replace("'", "", 1)
        daynote = daynote[::-1]
    daynote = daynote.replace('\\n', '\n').replace('\\t', '\t')
    fwrite = open((destdir + filedestname), "w")
    fwrite.write(daynote)
    fwrite.close()
    f.close()

Wow, thanks for this. I actually used rednotebook before I built this, and this is a really useful conversion script. I might use this manually or archive this somewhere. If this could be ported to js/ts perhaps I could add a feature where people could import their rednotebook ?

The code is free and freeware.

Great, thanks for sharing! I'll close this for now but will keep this as a reference and would be happy to use it in the future.
