A script to export your notes from the Vesper iOS app to text files. Exported notes can include markdown formatting with the --markdown switch.

• This was developed against Vesper 1.003. The data model has changed in newer versions and the script is incompatible with version 2+.
• Supporting new Vesper data model versions is a moving target. The syncing feature added in 2.0 removes the need for exporting for backup. That said, patches are welcome.

• Using a tool like PhoneView:

  • Extract the Vesper-Notes.sqlite3
  • Extract the Attachments directory

• Create an output directory

• Move the exported Attachements directory into the output directory and rename it to 'images'.

• Run vesper-export.py

    python vesper-export.py -f <path to Vesper-Notes.sqlite3> -o <path to output directory> [--markdown]
  

• Done
