在Mac上使用印象笔记,可以利用Applescript来编写脚本,自动化快速地创建笔记本和笔记,并且可以通过代码逻辑实现批量创建操作,比如通常遇到的文件夹下多个文件需要创建导入到印象笔记的对应笔记本中。
下面贴出了印象笔记开发网站上给出的参考AppleScript代码样例。
-- 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 section also cleans up after itself.
-- Please refer to the Evernote application‘s scripting dictionary for
-- detailed information and BE CAREFUL: operations that would normally
-- confirmation from the user (such as deleting notes, etc) are
-- completed without warning when invoked from AppleScript!
tell application "Evernote"
-- create, rename, and delete notebooks
if (not (notebook named "AppleScriptNotebook1" exists)) then
-- NOTE also check out the "create notebook" command
make notebook with properties {name:"AppleScriptNotebook1"}
end if
set name of notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1" to "AppleScriptNotebook2"
-- WARNING there is no confirmation!
delete notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"
------------------------------------
-- create, rename, and delete tags
if (not (tag named "AppleScriptTag1" exists)) then
make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag1"}
-- create a sub-tag
make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag2", parent:tag named "AppleScriptTag1"}
end if
set name of tag "AppleScriptTag1" to "AppleScriptTag3"
-- WARNING there is no confirmation, and all subtags are deleted as well!
delete tag "AppleScriptTag3"
------------------------------------
-- create notes, four ways
-- 1: with plain text
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
create note title "Note 1" with text "Here is my new text note" notebook notebook1
-- 2: with html
create note title "Note 2" with html "<strong>Here is my new HTML note</strong>" notebook notebook1
-- 3: with the data from a URL
create note title "Note 3" from url "http://www.evernote.com/media/images/logo.png" notebook notebook1
-- 4: with the data from a file
create note title "Note 4" from file "/path/to/a/file.txt" notebook notebook1
-- cleanup
delete notebook1
------------------------------------
-- move note between notebooks
create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"
create note title "Note 1" with text "Moving note" notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
move note 1 of notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1" to notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"
-- cleanup
delete notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
delete notebook "AppleScriptNotebook2"
------------------------------------
-- delete individual notes
create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
create note title "Note 1" with text "Delete this note!" notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
delete note 1 of notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
-- cleanup
delete notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
------------------------------------
-- assign, unnasign tags
create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note title "Note 1" with text "Note 1" notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note2 to create note title "Note 2" with text "Note 2" notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note3 to create note title "Note 3" with text "Note 3" notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set tag1 to make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag1"}
set tag2 to make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag2", parent:tag named "AppleScriptTag1"}
set tag3 to make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag3", parent:tag named "AppleScriptTag1"}
assign tag1 to note1
assign {tag2, tag3} to {note2, note3}
unassign tag1 from note1
unassign {tag2, tag3} from {note2, note3}
-- cleanup
delete notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
delete tag "AppleScriptTag1"
------------------------------------
-- open a note in its own window
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note with text "Note 1" notebook notebook1
open note window with note1
-- cleanup
delay (3) -- wait to be sure new window has opened
close window 1
delete notebook1
------------------------------------
-- change the query used in a note collection window
-- (assumes the default note collection window is open and is window 1)
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note with text "ONLY ME!" notebook notebook1
set query string of window 1 to "notebook:AppleScriptNotebook1"
-- cleanup
delete notebook1
------------------------------------
-- open a new collection window with a specific query
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note with text "ONLY ME!" notebook notebook1
open collection window with query string "notebook:AppleScriptNotebook1"
-- cleanup
delay (3) -- wait to be sure new window has opened
close window 1
delete notebook1
------------------------------------
-- append data to a note
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note with text "foo" notebook notebook1
tell note1 to append html "<strong>bar</strong>"
tell note1 to append text "baz"
-- cleanup
delete notebook1
------------------------------------
-- execute a query and manipulate every note in the result
-- for details on the query syntax, see our Search Grammar overview
-- at http://dev.evernote.com/documentation/cloud/chapters/search_grammar.php
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note with text "An apple is a fruit" notebook notebook1
set note2 to create note with text "An Apple is a computer" notebook notebook1
set note3 to create note with text "An orange is a fruit" notebook notebook1
set note4 to create note with text "An Amiga is a computer" notebook notebook1
set tag1 to make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag1"}
set matches to find notes "notebook:AppleScriptNotebook1 apple"
assign tag1 to matches
-- cleanup
delete tag1
delete notebook1
------------------------------------
-- do something with the application‘s selected notes
set notebook1 to create notebook "AppleScriptNotebook1"
set note1 to create note with text "Note 1" notebook notebook1
set note2 to create note with text "Note 2" notebook notebook1
open collection window with query string "notebook:AppleScriptNotebook1"
set tag1 to make tag with properties {name:"AppleScriptTag1"}
delay (3) -- be sure the new window has opened
-- normally, a script would be activated to take action when the user had
-- made a selection, rather than this artificial demonstration
set noteList to selection
assign tag1 to noteList
-- note: the application‘s ‘selection‘ property returns the same result as
-- the selection of window 1, if any
-- cleanup
close window 1
delete tag1
delete notebook1
