Am I able to import notes from evernote or upnote? I switched to upnote recently but got a warning from them about not supporting grapheneos for much longer
If this supported daylio (and the mood tracking that daylio uses), I would immediately switch.
Daylio has been requested before (and I just saw it has 4 upvote, so I am guessing its pretty popular ?) https://github.com/journiv/journiv-app/issues/58
Daylio kind of mood tracking i.e. extensive with custom mood and with activities will come soon.
Import from Daylio is possible although I am not sure how much the demand is. The github repo has lot of import from request from different apps and import does take a lot of time to build as most apps have obscure formats and nuances to deal with or on purpose don’t support simple portable formats to lock down user data. For example see the circus one has to go through to get meaning from Daylio export: https://www.joelotter.com/posts/2022/01/daylio/
Oh hell yeah on the Day One import! I’ve got 9 years of entries I want to take out of that ecosystem. I wish I wasn’t traveling for work, otherwise I’d get it installed and take it for a spin. Thanks for all the hard work!
Is Journiv still having issues with export? I couldn’t get it to work (tried following all the stuff I could find about the export issues and folder permissions) - so I gave up. A shame because I like the app.
Can you clarify the export issue you are seeing or please report it on github? The export/import has been working well. I am guessing you might have tried it out with quickstart docker compose or Synology NAS guide from mariaus hosting which does not have complete docker compose i.e. it is missing celery-workers container which are needed to create import/export jobs and run them async. Couple of users tripped on this so I will be improving the error message to specifically say they need to run complete stack right not the error message is very cryptic low level detail which is hard for anyone to understand what went wrong.
Thanks. I took another look at your documentation and decided to re-install everything. You’re right, I’d used the simple “test” compose script from your site. After a little trial and error, I got everything working properly with this:
