Installation

hyperdiary requires Python version 3.8 or later. Once you have Python and [pipx](https://pipx.pypa.io/stable/) installed on your machine (and available in your path), you can install hyperdiary by executing

pipx install hyperdiary

Setup

A project file hyperdiary.json is required to setup your diary. It should be of this form:

{
        "sources": [
                "2024/05.yaml",
                "2024/06.yaml"
        ],
        "expected": [
                {"start": "2024-05-01", "end": "2024-05-01"},
                {"start": "2024-06-09", "end": "2024-06-10"}
        ],
        "localization": {
                "months": ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun",
                           "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"],
                "date_fmt": "%-d.%-m.%Y"
        }
}

You diary content itself is entered in yaml files like this (2024/06.yaml):

2024-06-09:
  - Some entry goes here with a $special_identity|link
  - This entry is +surprise tagged +mytag +nexttag
  - This entry contains nothing new
2024-06-10:
  - Same $special_identity|link again and $New_Identity|NewIdentity
  - $test +mytag

Use $target|linktext to create a hyperlink to target showing text linktext. Use +mytag to add tag mytag.
