Tool to import your notes to Joplin.

❗ Should only be used if the built-in import of Joplin isn't available for your note format.

For detailed information, take a look at the Documentation.

1. Download jimmy here: Linux | Windows | MacOS ¹
2. This script requires that the webclipper in Joplin is running. It will connect to Joplin at the first execution.
3. Examples for the Linux CLI app:

# import a single file supported by pandoc
jimmy-cli-linux libre_office_document.odt

# import all files in a folder
jimmy-cli-linux path/to/folder

# import a Google Keep export
jimmy-cli-linux takeout-20240401T160516Z-001.zip --format google_keep

After importing, the notes should be available in a new Joplin notebook named like YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS - Import.

❗ Make sure your data is imported properly.

What is converted (in most cases)?

• Note content
• Metadata
• Tags / Labels
• Resources / Attachments
• Images
• External links and internal note links
• Markdown Front Matter

If something is not working, please check the issues first. If you can't find anything, feel free to create a new issue. It might be just not implemented yet or a regression. On the other side, the exported data can be sparse. In that case it's not possible to transfer the data with jimmy.
