Filters

There are some simple filters to select which data to import. For more complex filtering, a separate plugin or script should be used.

Available Filters

All filters can be used with wildcard. The filters are case-sensitive.

• Exclude or include specific notes (--exclude-notes, --include-notes)
• Exclude or include notes with specific tags (--exclude-notes-with-tags, --include-notes-with-tags)
• Exclude or include the tags themself (--exclude-tags, --include-tags)

To check the exact command, visit the help page (--help).

Limitations

Filtering by notebooks is not possible, because nesting can yield some ambiguities.

Examples

# show the help
jimmy-cli-linux --help

# import specific nots only
jimmy-cli-linux obsidian_vault/ --format obsidian --include-notes "Sample note" "Second sample note"

# exclude notes with a tag
jimmy-cli-linux obsidian_vault/ --format obsidian --exclude-notes-with-tags "ignore this tag"

# don't import any tags
jimmy-cli-linux obsidian_vault/ --format obsidian --exclude-tags "*"
