# Joplin to mdbook Website Generator
Export your joplin notes into a [mdbook](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/index.html) compatible format for easy website creation.


## joplinexport
- Connects to the local Joplin `database.sqlite` file and iterates through all the folders, notes and their individual tags. If the note has the `blog` tag, do the following:
	- Grab the contents of the note, resolve any links to other notes and replace them with the proper HTML path 
	- If the note has images or other resources, resolve and replace the filepath to the resource with the HTML path and then export the resource to the `/content/resources` directory.
	- export the contents of the note to a .md file within the `/content` directory.
- Generates a `SUMMARY.md` file within the `/content` directory with each of the folders and notes that had the `blog` tag.
	- If there is a `Welcome` note with the `blog` tag, it will be placed at the top of the `SUMMARY.md` file before any other folders/notes, this will be the landing page of the website. 

# Settings
- The mdbook configuration files: `config.toml` and `book.toml` are responsible for all the settings for the website. See  for detailed breakdown.









# This project is a fork of the very skilled [Stavros Korokithakis's Project](https://gitlab.com/stavros/notes/)


## Notable Changes
- Notes and Folders are grabbed based on a whitelist instead of a blacklist
	- Instead of checking if a notebook/note is tagged with "private", instead checks if the notebook/note is tagged with "blog"






Stavros' notes
==============

This is a static website that gets autogenerated from a bunch of [Joplin](https://joplinapp.org/) notes.
I wrote a small script to read the notes, export them, and generate a static site.
If you want to use the script and generate such a site for yourself, feel free to fork this repository.

Just run `./joplinexport`, it will read the database and create a site like this one and upload it to GitLab pages.

You can see the final site at:
