markdown to evernote service

[sphardy]

Hi - I wanted to try to make at least one significant contribution to the beta, so here's a workflow that allows you to send selected markdown formatted text to Evernote via a hotkey.

 

Not all my own work I'm sorry to say, but a flow I've wanted for a while and only investigated properly recently. (I spend a lot of time taking notes and writing up reports. Markdown support in Evernote would be ideal, but until then - Alfred comes to the rescue)

 

It requires the installation of multimarkdown - available here: http://fletcherpenney.net/multimarkdown

It reuses a script available here: http://nsuserview.kopischke.net/post/6223792409/i-can-has-some-markdown

 

 

 

Evernote note title, notebook and tags can all be specified via markdown metadata. All other text is then imported to Evernote as HTML. 

 

Workflow available to download here: http://d.pr/f/2pUe

 

Updated: Corrected issue with non-escaped double quotes

Well done. Thanks. Works great.

Fantastic!

FYI: Just posted an update that corrects an occasional issue with double-quotes in the markdown

This is fantastic. Thank you for submitting this workflow. I've been looking for something like this and had messed around with the script you referenced but it is a much simpler, cleaner workflow with Alfred! Thanks to all!

I have some markdown that isn't being parsed correctly. It appears as though the back ticks ` are causing the code inside the back ticks to be executed instead of treated as a code block in markdown.

 

Here is the markdown:

## Git repo with existing sources

If you've got local source code you want to add to a new remote new git repository without 'cloning' the remote first, do the following (I often do this - you create your remote empty repository in bitbucket/github, then push up your source)

If your local GIT repo is already set up, skips steps 2 and 3

 1. Create the remote repository, and get the URL such as git@github.com:/youruser/somename.git or https://github.com/youruser/somename.git

 2. Locally, at the root directory of your source, `git init`

 3. Locally, add and commit what you want in your initial repo (for everything, `git add .` then `git commit -m 'initial commit comment'`)

 4. To attach your remote repo with the name 'origin' `git remote add origin [URL From Step 1]`

 5. Execute `git pull origin master` to pull the remote branch so that they are in sync.

 6. to push up your master branch (change master to something else for a different branch): `git push origin master`

I love the idea of this workflow! Do you think you can sort this out so that I can use it more often?

 

Thanks!

I was able to fix the issue by checking the Backquotes Escaping option.
