Prerequisites

Obsidian installed if you wish to immediately start using your migrated files in Obsidian.

Installation
pip install dayone-to-obsidian

Usage
Follow these steps for conversion:

Prepare Your Day One Export:
Export your Day One journal entries to a JSON file or directory containing multiple JSON files following the
manual.

Run the Conversion:
Open a terminal or command prompt and execute the
CLI with the appropriate options.
The command structure is as follows:
dayone-to-obsidian run --json /path/to/your/dayone_export.json --target /path/to/target_directory [--force] [--tag-prefix=prefix] [--tag=tag1] [--tag=tag2]

--json: Path to your Day One export JSON file or directory.
If not specified, it defaults to the current directory.
--target: Path to the directory where converted Markdown files will be saved.
By default, a new folder is created in the current directory.
--force: Force the overwriting of existing journal folder.
--tag-prefix: Prefix for tags, allowing customization of how tags are formatted in the converted files.
--tag: Additional tag(s) to add to all entries. This option can be repeated to include multiple tags.
--help: Display the help message.

Example command:
dayone-to-obsidian run --json ./DayOneExport/Journal.json --target ./ObsidianNotes --tag-prefix=DayOne/ --tag=Imported --tag=Journal

This command specifies a Day One JSON export file, sets the target directory for the converted Markdown files, adds a
prefix to all tags, and includes additional tags for each entry.

Import to Obsidian:
Once the conversion process is complete, manually move the generated Markdown files to your Obsidian vault directory.
