Systems other than Day One

[mrjcleaver]

Day One is nice, especially that it has mobile clients, but it is also pretty basic.

Has any work been done to think about publishing to other platforms, such as Wordpress or Atlassian Confluence or Evernote [3]?

Thanks, M.

I believe that Evernote was originally implemented with Slogger before Brett dropped it, presumably because he stopped using it at some point. I think I've seen discussions about other platforms but I'm not sure what's on the radar going forward.

Thanks Chris. I don't see evernote mentioned elsewhere on the Github Issues - do we have more history?

Other backends could include anything that is essentially a Calendar.

This way entries from plugins could end up elsewhere, Google Calendar etc.

In many ways, I see the power of Slogger as being a "processor of entries in other systems", a middleware that knows what entries are processed and adds the missing ones.

It feels like only the last step, where it makes a DayOne object is fundamentally about DayOne. The rest is generic.

I had, for a while, planned an export plugin system, but didn't get
around to it yet. There's already a Markdown output option, and that
could easily be extended into anything with either plain/xml file
storage or an AppleScript dictionary for importing.
