#DayOne to Ghost export tool

This tool will create all the files you'll need to import your DayOne Journal entries into Ghost.

###Dependencies

brew install pandoc
pip install pypandoc

###Usage

$ python dayoneToGhost.py <path to your Journal.dayone>

This will create an dayone_export_<date>.json file and a content directory which contains all your DayOne Photos. All you need to do is to import the dayone_export_<date>.json file and copy the content directory into your Ghost installation directory.

Things that will be exported

  • entry text
  • creation Date
  • images (as post image)
  • tags
  • stars (as featured posts)

Coming soon

  • tag imported entries with a custom tag
  • use external images (to support also hosted ghost blogs)
  • allow more command arguments

Currently Missing

  • Wheather information
  • Location information

This are both things the Ghost data model doesn't support. Maybe I can fill this gap with the upcoming Ghost Apps... (or one of you clever guys have an idea ;) )!

Big thanks to José Padilla as my tool is based on his tumblr-to-ghost export tool.
