2021-09-12 r/2854 feat(sterni/mblog): convert apple note mime msgs to htmlsterni5-0/+250
For now mblog only contains the mnote-html executable which takes a mime message from a maildir and prints the equivalent HTML fragment to stdout. It is intended to work with the mblaze(7) utilities, i. e. mnote-html resolves all `object` tags to proper `img` inclusions with the correct filename, so mshow(1)'s -x version can supply the needed image files. A note created using Apple's Notes app (tested with the iOS version) can be converted in a viewable HTML file like this: $ mnote-html path/to/msg > fragment.html $ mshow -x path/to/msg $ cat <(echo "<!DOCTYPE html>") fragment.html > document.html $ xdg-open document.html Note that only the limited feature set of Apple Notes when using the IMAP backend is supported. The iCloud-based one has more (quite neat) features, but its notes can only accessed via an internal API as far as I know. This CLI is a bit impractical due to the big startup overhead of loading the lisp image. mblog should be become a fully fletched static site generator in the future, but this is a good starting point and providing the mnote-html tool is certainly useful.
