Hello, still remember me @jprint @JournoProf ? I haven’t been in here a long time for some reason. Now I’m back and tried to fullfill your needs through plugins. If there’s somethings wrong understanding, please tell me.
Abstract
This plugin is mainly for connecting MN3 with other Software(support url scheme<for example: Devonthink3, Flomo etc.>) . This plugin makes it possible to export card in any formats with any content you want!
Features
Append UUID and Citation
I remember you want to export cards and documents with uuid, now it’s possible to append uuid automatically after you excerpting like GIF shows. What’s more, you could append UUID to tag or comments.
Besides, I still remember @JournoProf said that he want citations to be shown in the card. Now you could set up citation and page offset first and the plugin will auto append {citation+page} in the card.
URLscheme for better exporting
I know MN3 is weak in exporting, this add-on gives you a choice to export your cards to other softwares(support urlscheme) with any other information you want.
This part is forked from Copysearch. You need to enter the {{variable}} you want into the URLscheme, and all variables supported are listed below:
| Variable | Remark |
|---|---|
| documentTitle | the name of the document |
| notebookTitle | the name of the notebookTitle |
| noteTitle | the title of the note card |
| start_page | excerption start page(page offset) |
| end_page | excerption end page(page offset) |
| origin_start_page | excerption origin start page |
| origin_end_page | excerption origin end page(for file path) |
| excerptText_h | All excerpts (images will be automatically OCR), with emphasis left by highlighting, can be easily pasted into software that supports Markdown |
| excerptText | All excerptions |
| excerptText_h1 | The first excerption，with emphasis |
| excerptText_1 | The first excerption |
| tag_h | All tags，with # ，split by comma(for DT3) |
| tag_1 | All tags, split by comma |
| tag_h1 | The first tag，with # |
| tag | The first tag |
| comment | All comments |
| comment_1 | The first comment |
| comment_p | All comments with base64 pic |
| now | Current time |
| modifiedTime | The time the card was created |
| createTime | The time the card modified recently |
| link | That is MNLink, you can jump back to the link of the card |
| notebookLink | Notebook link |
| documentPath | folder root path(for file path) |
| uuid | uuid |
| quote | citation set by users(append citations) |
| allText_h | All text in the card, including excerpt comment tags, with emphasis |
| allText | All text |
| allText_p | All text with picture in base64 format(for DT3 markdown file) |
for example
x-devonthink://createMarkdown?title={{notebookTitle}}+{{start_page}}_{{end_page}}&text={{allText_p}}&tags={{tag}}
This will automatically create a markdown file to DT3.
Considering you may add more information to the card. I also provide you with another way to export these cards. Just tap on the button shown below and you can choose the method to export cards.
like this(you can see that the tag is also added to the file)
For more detail about URLscheme, you may need to read user guide. DT3 in Help→Devonthink3 Help. If you both use DTTG3, you need to read guide in DTTG3, which has a little bit difference with DT3 URLscheme.
