🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Install via ClawHub

Basic Usage

# Add a note (auto-tagging happens automatically)
mini-diary add "Met with client about P1S delivery"

# Add a todo item (use [ ] for pending, [x] for completed)
# The todo will be added to the current day's todo section
echo "- [ ] Follow up with supplier" >> ~/diary.md
echo "- [x] Submit monthly report" >> ~/diary.md

# Search by tag
mini-diary search --tag "📦"

mini-diary search --date "2024-02-22"

📁 Diary Format

Mini Diary uses a simple Markdown format:

# 📓 My Diary

## 📅 2024-02-22 Thursday

### 📝 Notes

- Met with client about P1S delivery 📦🎋
- Fixed heating issue on X1C printer 🔧🎋
- Submitted monthly invoice 💰

### ✅ Todos

- [ ] Follow up with supplier
- [x] Update inventory spreadsheet

✅ Managing Todos

Adding Todos

Since todos are simple Markdown task lists, you can add them directly:

# Add a pending todo
echo "- [ ] Call client for follow-up" >> ~/diary.md

# Add a completed todo  
echo "- [x] Submit weekly report" >> ~/diary.md

# Add multiple todos
cat >> ~/diary.md << 'EOF'
- [ ] Order more filament
- [x] Backup server data
- [ ] Schedule team meeting
EOF

Todo Best Practices

1. Start with date: Ensure you're adding to the correct day's section
2. Use clear descriptions: "Call John re: P1S delivery" not just "Call John"
3. Update status: Change [ ] to [x] when completed
4. Review daily: Check todos at start/end of each day

Finding Todos

# Search for pending todos
grep "\[ \]" ~/diary.md

# Search for completed todos
grep "\[x\]" ~/diary.md

# Count todos by status
grep -c "\[ \]" ~/diary.md  # Pending count
grep -c "\[x\]" ~/diary.md  # Completed count

🏷️ Auto-Tagging System

The AI automatically adds tags based on content:

☁️ NextCloud Integration (Optional)

Setup

1. Set environment variable:

export NEXTCLOUD_SYNC_DIR="/path/to/nextcloud/diary"

1. Mini Diary will automatically sync to this directory.

⚠️ Important Notes

File Permissions: NextCloud requires specific file ownership:

# After copying files to NextCloud directory:
chown www-data:www-data /path/to/diary.md

# Or using Docker:
docker exec nextcloud_app chown www-data:www-data /var/www/html/data/...

Scan Command Required: NextCloud won't detect changes automatically:

docker exec nextcloud_app php occ files:scan [username]

⚙️ Configuration

Environment Variables

# Diary file location
export DIARY_FILE="$HOME/my-diary.md"

# NextCloud sync directory
export NEXTCLOUD_SYNC_DIR="/path/to/nextcloud"

# Custom tag definitions (JSON file)
export TAGS_CONFIG="/path/to/tags.json"

Custom Tags

Create a JSON file to define custom tags:

{
  "custom_tags": {
    "project-x": "🚀",
    "urgent": "⚠️",
    "meeting": "👥"
  },
  "rules": {
    "project-x": ["project x", "px", "feature"],
    "urgent": ["urgent", "asap", "important"],
    "meeting": ["meeting", "call", "discussion"]
  }
}

📊 Advanced Usage

Weekly Report

# Generate weekly summary
mini-diary search --date $(date -d "last week" +%Y-%m-%d) --stats

Tag Analysis

# See most used tags
mini-diary search --stats | grep -A5 "Tag Statistics"

Export Data

# Export to CSV for analysis
grep "^- " diary.md | sed 's/^- //' > notes.csv

🔧 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Tags not appearing: Check content keywords match tag rules
2. NextCloud files not showing: Did you run the scan command?
3. Permission errors: Check file ownership in NextCloud directory
4. Search not working: Ensure diary file exists and has content

Debug Mode

# Enable debug output
export MINI_DIARY_DEBUG=1
mini-diary add "test note"
