Google Task2Evernote

This is a tiny node.js script that converts a GoogleTasks.json exported from Google Tasks through the Google Takeout to the Evernote Export format *.enex.

REQUIREMENTS

You need node.js installed.

INSTALLATION

Install required node modules first (exec this in the directory where the convert.js and package.json is located):

npm i

USAGE

  1. Get your tasks from Google Takeout

  2. Place the generated GoogleTasks.json in this directory

  3. You might wand to look at the top of convert.js script, there are a couple of options defined which you can use to adjust the behaviour to your needs, e.g.

    • define if you wand all task lists written to one large enex file with tags added for every list (if exportListAsTag = true)

    • or generate a enex file for each task list

    • you might want to set the listTagPrefix to ""

    • you can add a prefix for the "status" tag (statusTagPrefix)

    • do you want to import also hidden (i.e. deleted) tasks (if hiddenTag is defined)

    • scan the notes (not title) for URLs / links and convert them to clickable links (linkifyNotes = true). This uses the handly linkify plugin.

    • linkify can also convert hashtags defined in the twitter style as #mySpecialTag. You can enable this if you have hashtags in your notes (not title) to convert these to Evernote tags. (scanHashTags = true)

  4. Run node convert.js

  5. The Output is created in dir Evernote, one file per task list

  6. Import the genereted *.enex in Evernote. (I think, currently import is not avaliable in the web version of Evernote, so you have to you the desktop version > File > Import > Evernote export file.)
