smarana

An extensible note taking system for typst.

Design

• Local sqlite database.
• cli that exposes everything in plaintext/json so that external tools can make use of the output for UI.
• Separate threads + modules for cli, and config parsing.

Basics

Notebook

• init argument that takes in path or nothing and initializes the notebook in the path or the current directory.
• sync argument that syncs the database to index all notes.

Notes

• new argument that creates a note.
• edit argument that opens the note in the configured editor.
• list argument that lists all the notes
• json argument that outputs all notes with its metadata in json.

Config

• alias argument that lists all the alias set by the user.
• config argument that opens the configuration file to edit. (if it is inside the notebook root then opens local config in .smarana) otherwise in XDG_CONFIG_HOME/smarana.
