Apple Notes to Org-roam conversion script

How To
1

Hello all! I have been working on an Apple Notes to Org-roam conversion script (an Apple Shortcut which is mostly composed of Python scripts), and it is finally complete. It has worked for me, and I am now living happily in Org :wink:

It generates UUIDs for IDs, assumes you want “creation” and “modification” properties which hold creation and modification timestamps, specifies the modification timestamp upon export (“imported-modification”), the import date (“import”), and pulls over the old folder (“old-folder”) you used to have the Note in in Apple Notes.

It creates Org-roam nodes for each of these Apple Notes folders, each with a list of all the notes that are in that folder. Finally, it creates one huge node (“apple notes import”) with every single one of your exported notes.

Here is the link.
