server_url = 'http://localhost:8080'
token = 'YOUR_TOKEN'
ea = ETAPI(server_url, token)

If you haven't created ETAPI token, you can create one with your password. Please note, you can only see this token once, please save it if you want to reuse the token.

from trilium_py.client import ETAPI

server_url = 'http://localhost:8080'
password = '1234'
ea = ETAPI(server_url)
token = ea.login(password)
print(token)
