<p>Joplin is a free, open source note taking and to-do application, which can handle a large number of notes organised into notebooks. The notes are searchable, can be copied, tagged and modified either from the applications directly or from your own text editor. The notes are in <a href="https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/basics">Markdown format</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Notes exported from Evernote via .enex files <a href="#importing-notes-from-evernote">can be imported</a> into Joplin, including the formatted content (which is converted to Markdown), resources (images, attachments, etc.) and complete metadata (geolocation, updated time, created time, etc.).</p>
|
|
<p>The notes can be <a href="#synchronisation">synchronised</a> with various targets including the file system (for example with a network directory) or with Microsoft OneDrive. When synchronising the notes, notebooks, tags and other metadata are saved to plain text files which can be easily inspected, backed up and moved around.</p>
|
|
<p>Joplin is still under development but is out of Beta and should be suitable for every day use. The UI of the terminal client is built on top of the great <a href="https://github.com/cronvel/terminal-kit">terminal-kit</a> library, the desktop client using <a href="https://electronjs.org/">Electron</a>, and the Android client front end is done using <a href="https://facebook.github.io/react-native/">React Native</a>.</p>

<h1 id="importing-notes-from-evernote">Importing notes from Evernote</h1>
|
|
<p>Joplin was designed as a replacement for Evernote and so can import complete Evernote notebooks, as well as notes, tags, resources (attached files) and note metadata (such as author, geo-location, etc.) via ENEX files. In terms of data, the only two things that might slightly differ are:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><p>Recognition data - Evernote images, in particular scanned (or photographed) documents have <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_character_recognition">recognition data</a> associated with them. It is the text that Evernote has been able to recognise in the document. This data is not preserved when the note are imported into Joplin. However, should it become supported in the search tool or other parts of Joplin, it should be possible to regenerate this recognition data since the actual image would still be available.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><p>Colour, font sizes and faces - Evernote text is stored as HTML and this is converted to Markdown during the import process. For notes that are mostly plain text or with basic formatting (bold, italic, bullet points, links, etc.) this is a lossless conversion, and the note, once rendered back to HTML should be very similar. Tables are also imported and converted to Markdown tables. For very complex notes, some formatting data might be loss - in particular colours, font sizes and font faces will not be imported. The text itself however is always imported in full regardless of formatting.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>To import Evernote data, first export your Evernote notebooks to ENEX files as described <a href="https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005557-How-to-back-up-export-and-restore-import-notes-and-notebooks">here</a>. Then follow these steps:</p>
|
|
<p>On the <strong>desktop application</strong>, open the "File" menu, click "Import Evernote notes" and select your ENEX file. This will open a new screen which will display the import progress. The notes will be imported into a new separate notebook (so that, in case of a mistake, the notes are not mixed up with any existing notes). If needed then can then be moved to a different notebook, or the notebook can be renamed, etc.</p>
|
|
<p>On the <strong>terminal application</strong>, in <a href="/terminal#command-line-mode">command-line mode</a>, type <code>import-enex /path/to/file.enex</code>. This will import the notes into a new notebook named after the filename.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="synchronisation">Synchronisation</h1>
|
|
<p>One of the goals of Joplin was to avoid being tied to any particular company or service, whether it is Evernote, Google or Microsoft. As such the synchronisation is designed without any hard dependency to any particular service. Most of the synchronisation process is done at an abstract level and access to external services, such as OneDrive or Dropbox, is done via lightweight drivers. It is easy to support new services by creating simple drivers that provide a filesystem-like interface, i.e. the ability to read, write, delete and list items. It is also simple to switch from one service to another or to even sync to multiple services at once. Each note, notebook, tags, as well as the relation between items is transmitted as plain text files during synchronisation, which means the data can also be moved to a different application, can be easily backed up, inspected, etc.</p>
|
|
<p>Currently, synchronisation is possible with OneDrive (by default) or the local filesystem. A NextCloud driver, and a Dropbox one will also be available once <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/14445">this React Native bug</a> is fixed. When syncing with OneDrive, Joplin creates a sub-directory in OneDrive, in /Apps/Joplin and read/write the notes and notebooks from it. The application does not have access to anything outside this directory.</p>
|
|
<p>On the <strong>desktop application</strong>, to initiate the synchronisation process, click on the "Synchronise" button in the sidebar. You will be asked to login to OneDrive to authorise the application (simply input your Microsoft credentials - you do not need to register with OneDrive). After that, the application will synchronise in the background whenever it is running, or you can click on "Synchronise" to start a synchronisation manually.</p>
|
|
<p>On the <strong>terminal application</strong>, to initiate the synchronisation process, type <code>:sync</code>. You will be asked to follow a link to authorise the application (simply input your Microsoft credentials - you do not need to register with OneDrive). After that, the application will synchronise in the background whenever it is running. It is possible to also synchronise outside of the user interface by typing <code>joplin sync</code> from the terminal. This can be used to setup a cron script to synchronise at regular interval. For example, this would do it every 30 minutes:</p>
|
|
<pre><code>*/30 * * * * /path/to/joplin sync
|
|
</code></pre><h1 id="attachments-resources">Attachments / Resources</h1>
|
|
<p>Any kind of file can be attached to a note. In Markdown, links to these files are represented as a simple ID to the resource. In the note viewer, these files, if they are images, will be displayed or, if they are other files (PDF, text files, etc.) they will be displayed as links. Clicking on this link will open the file in the default application.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="notifications">Notifications</h1>
|
|
<p>On the desktop and mobile apps, an alarm can be associated with any to-do. It will be triggered at the given time by displaying a notification. How the notification will be displayed depends on the operating system since each has a different way to handle this. Please see below for the requirements for the desktop applications:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><strong>Windows</strong>: >= 8. Make sure the Action Center is enabled on Windows. Task bar balloon for Windows < 8. Growl as fallback. Growl takes precedence over Windows balloons.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>macOS</strong>: >= 10.8 or Growl if earlier.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Linux</strong>: <code>notify-osd</code> or <code>libnotify-bin</code> installed (Ubuntu should have this by default). Growl otherwise</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>See <a href="./DECISION_FLOW.md">documentation and flow chart for reporter choice</a></p>
|
|
<p>On mobile, the alarms will be displayed using the built-in notification system.</p>
|
|
<p>If for any reason the notifications do not work, please <a href="https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues">open an issue</a>.</p>

<p>Joplin is currently available in English and French. If you would like to contribute a translation, it is quite straightforward, please follow these steps:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://poedit.net/">Download Poedit</a>, the translation editor, and install it.</li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/master/CliClient/locales/joplin.pot">Download the file to be translated</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>In Poedit, open this .pot file, go into the Catalog menu and click Configuration. Change "Country" and "Language" to your own country and language.</li>
|
|
<li>From then you can translate the file. Once it's done, please send the file to <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/master/Assets/Adresse.png">this address</a> or open a pull request.</li>
