A command line tool to manage markdown files for taking notes.
NotPy is a tool to help you manage markdown files for taking notes. You can create, edit, and delete notebooks and pages with simple CLI commands. NotPy is built using Python, and it uses some third-party libraries such as click, pathlib, and toml.
To use NotPy, you need to install Python 3.6 or later. To install NotPy, clone the repository and install the requirements:

You can also run NotPy from anywhere by adding the path to the notpy.py file to your system's PATH variable.
NotPy has four main commands: ls, edit, create, and delete.
The ls command is used to list notebooks and pages. To list notebooks, use the command:

To list pages in a notebook, use the command:

Replace <notebook_id_or_name> with the ID or name of the notebook you want to list the pages for.
The edit command is used to edit pages. To edit a page, use the command:
notpy edit pg <notebook_id_or_name> <page_id_or_name>
Replace <notebook_id_or_name> with the ID or name of the notebook the page is in, and replace <page_id_or_name> with the ID or name of the page you want to edit.
The create command is used to create notebooks and pages. To create a notebook, use the command:
notpy create nb <notebook_id_or_name>
Replace <notebook_id_or_name> with the ID or name of the notebook you want to create.
To create a page, use the command:
notpy create pg <notebook_id_or_name> <page_name>
Replace <notebook_id_or_name> with the ID or name of the notebook you want to create the page in, and replace <page_name> with the name of the page you want to create.
The delete command is used to delete notebooks and pages. To delete a notebook, use the command:
