using Evernote on your Mac, you can use AppleScript to write scripts, automate the creation of notebooks and notes quickly, and use code logic to create bulk operations, such as multiple files that are typically encountered in folders that need to be created into a corresponding notebook that is imported into Evernote. Below is a sample of the reference AppleScript code given on the Evernote development site. --This script includes examples for using AppleScript to perform several --useful tasks with evernote. - -Each section illustrates a chunk of Evernote's AppleScript interface, --and each sections also cleans up after Itse lf. --refer to the Evernote application ' s scripting dictionary for --detailed information and being Carefu L:operations that would normally --confirmation from the user (such as deleting notes, etc) are --completed W Ithout warning when invoked from Applescript! tell application "Evernote"--Create, rename, and delete Notebooksif (n OT (notebook named "AppleScriptNotebook1" exists)) then--NOTE Also check out the "Create Notebook" Commandmake notebook W ITH Properties {name: "AppleScriptNotebook1"}end ifset name of Notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1" to "AppleScriptNotebook2" --WARNING There is no Confirmation!delete notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"--------------------------------------Create , rename, and delete tagsif (not (tag named "AppleScriptTag1" exists)) Thenmake tags with properties {name: "AppleScriptTag1 "}--Create a Sub-tagmake tag with properties {name:" AppleScriptTag2 ", Parent:tag named" AppleScriptTag1 "}end ifset name O F Tag "AppleScriptTag1" to "AppleScriptTag3"--WARNING there was no confirmation, and all subtags are deleted as Well!delet E tag "AppleScriptTag3"--------------------------------------Create notes, four ways--1:with plain Textset Notebook1 to Create Notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1" Create note title "Note 1" with the text "Here is my new text note" Notebook notebook1- -2:with htmlcreate Note title "NOTE 2" with HTML "<strong>here is my new HTML note</strong>" notebook Notebo ok1--3:with the data from a urlcreate note title "Note 3" from URL "http://www.evernote.com/media/images/logo.png" Noteb Ook notebook1--4:with theData from a filecreate note title "Note 4" From file "/path/to/a/file.txt" notebook notebook1--cleanupdelete Notebook1--- -----------------------------------move note between notebookscreate notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1" Create Notebook " AppleScriptNotebook2 "Create note title" Note 1 "with text" Moving note "notebook" AppleScriptNotebook1 "move note 1 of note Book "AppleScriptNotebook1" To Notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"--Cleanupdelete Notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1" delete Notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"--------------------------------------Delete individual notescreate notebook " AppleScriptNotebook1 "Create note title" Note 1 "with text" delete this note!
