Here is what I am looking to do: I am currently migrating 8k or so of notes out of Evernote. For my journal type stuff I settled on Day One. So now I am looking for a way to have Hazel / Automator / Apple Script etc. automatically create Day One entries for me. Ideally with a date and location as parsed out of Evernote and optionally with attachments (optionally meaning some notes do have attachments, others do not) .
Any ideas / help are much appreciated. Many thanks.
@bowline: Many thanks for your response and for pointing me towards this material. I will check this out for sure.
First question to get me started though: How do I go about installing the command line tool? Can I just paste the code into Terminal? Sorry for this beginner question.
Follow up question: If I paste this into terminal I get prompted for my password (as mentioned in the material). Unfortunately I can not type anything in there. Am I missing something?

You can paste this line in Terminal, it will ask you for your password and then it should be done.

You are typing, it is just not showing you what you are typing for security reasons. Just type your password and end with Return.
Just type “dayone2” in the terminal and press “Enter”. If you see an instruction about how you should use this tool it worked.
