MimirNotes 0.5.0

A simple, command line, note taking utility.

Synopsis

Mimir is a simple, command line based note taking application. Designed with git syntax and usage in mind, its aim is to provide quick, concise notes, that can be easily included in the project/directory where they are created.

Code Example

Mimir can be initialized within any directory. Each mimir instance keep track of its own notes.

Initialize mimir within a directory:

mimir init

This will create a new directory, .mimir, and a config file, .mimir/.mimir-config

Delete mimir from a directory:

mimir delete

This deletes the mimir present in the working directory. It will also delete any config files and all notes.

To create a new note, simply:

mimir This is my brand new note!

Or, to add a new note with tags:

mimir This is a note with a @tag

The note will be added to .mimir/mimir_notes.txt

To show notes:

mimir -s 1
mimir -s 2

Will show the last one and two notes, respectively.

mimir @tag1
mimir @tag1 @tag2

If only tags are provided to mimir, it will assume you want to search by tags, rather than create a new note

Notes can also be searched via date fences:

mimir --since 2010 --until october
mimir --since june
mimir --until 2015

Date fences can be mixed with tags and the -s option for more fine grained searching.

To edit notes:

mimir edit

This will open the mimir notes file in your specified editor (this must be set in .mimir-config)

Finally, you can also view the status of your mimir, view a count of all tags present, or delete it entirely:

mimir status
mimir tags
mimir delete

Installation

Install via pip:

pip install mimirnotes

Tests

Mimir uses Pytest for testing.

From the root project directory, simply run pytest
