NNAAMMEE ddaayyoonnee - Command line interface for the Day One journaling application.
SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS ddaayyoonnee [op_t_i_o_n_s] co_m_m_a_n_d [co_m_m_a_n_d_-ar_g_u_m_e_n_t] [co_m_m_a_n_d_-ar_g_u_m_e_n_t]...
DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN The ddaayyoonnee tool provides a way to interact with your Day One journal file through the co_m_m_a_n_d line. It is typically used for custom import scripts and utilities.
ddaayyoonnee will only work properly if you have purchased the Day One
application and have run it at least one time on your computer. You can
purchase Day One by visiting https://dayoneapp.com.
You must always specify a _c_o_m_m_a_n_d. Currently the only supported _c_o_m_m_a_n_d
is new. The entry text is read from stdin.
CCOOMMMMAANNDDSS nneeww [[tteexxtt]] [[tteexxtt]]...... Creates new entry with optional text. Every text argument will be separated by a single space when placed into the new entry. If no text arguments are provided then standard input is used by default for the entry text. Use ----nnoo--ssttddiinn to override this behavior.
hheellpp Display help.
OOPPTTIIOONNSS --pp,, ----pphhoottooss <<ppaatthh11>> [[ppaatthh22]]...... Path to one or more photo files. If desired you can use [{photo}] in entry text to position photo. Can only have up to 10 photos listed. If this option is the last one listed, you must place a -- at the end of the list prior to the co_m_m_a_n_d, otherwise the co_m_m_a_n_d would be considered.
Example: --pp photo1 photo2
--dd, ----ddaattee=<date> Date to use, otherwise will use today/now. Example
Format: yyyy-mm-dd [hh:mm[:ss]] [AM|PM], time/seconds are optional. Uses
current system time zone unless you use the ----ttiimmeeZZoonnee option. Other
formats are possible, such as 'Next Tuesday' or '12/30/2016', etc.
Example Use: ----ddaattee='2015-06-01 15:53:10'
----iissooDDaattee=2016-06-01T15:30:12Z Date to use in ISO 8601 format. Format:
yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ Always interprets the time in the UTC time zone in
the gregorian calendar. Entry its self will still use current system
time zone unless ----ttiimmeeZZoonnee option is used.
Example: ----ddaattee=2015-06-01T15:53:10Z
--zz, ----ttiimmee--zzoonnee=<name> Name of the timezone in which the entry was
created. If you do not specify this option then the current system
timezone is used. The name is expected to be a name from the IANA Time
Zone Database (see http://www.iana.org/time-zones or
/usr/share/zoneinfo). Alternatively, you can specify the name as a GMT
offset.
Examples: --tt America/Anchorage --tt Australia/Victoria --tt Etc/Zulu
--tt GMT-0700 --tt GMT+1200
--ss, ----ssttaarrrreedd Whether or not to star the entry. If not specified the
entry is not starred.
--jj, ----jjoouurrnnaall=<name> Name of Journal to place entry in. Journal must
already exist. If not specified then the default journal will be used.
----ccoooorrddiinnaattee=<latitude> <longitude> Location the entry should be placed
at. The timezone of entry will use this location regardless of what
timezone option is passed in.
----nnoo--ssttddiinn Ignore standard in. By default standard in is used if no text
arguments are used for the new _c_o_m_m_a_n_d. Example: ----nnoo--ssttddiinn
