# Notice

**This tool is not compatible with the current Day One journal formats.**

It is not really useful at this point, but I'm leaving it here in case

someone wants to use it as a jump-off point for updating the tool.

# Introduction

Export [Day One][0] journal entries into html, text, or another format

using a Jinja template.

# Installation

Use [pip][4]:

    pip install dayone_export

You can also use easy install

(`easy_install dayone_export`)

or download the source and install

(`python setup.py install`).

Depending on how your Python installation is configured, you may

need extra permissions to install packages. If so, prefix the

installation command by `sudo` and a space.

Any of these methods will also install the dependencies

[Jinja2][1], [pytz][2], [python-dateutil][6], and  [Markdown][3].

# Quick start

Export your entire journal with

    dayone_export --output journal.html /path/to/Journal.dayone

To see available options, run

    dayone_export --help

# Custom templates and advanced options

You can specify a custom template using the command line option `--template`.

You can permanently override the default template by creating a new template named `default.html` and saving it in the folder `~/.dayone_export`.
