This command-line Ruby script searches for a given search string S in all notes updated in the last N days, and displays all lines containing that search string, along with some useful note and folder context metadata.
I use Evernote all day long at work, sometimes making a dozen notes in a day. I've developed a TODO habit, where I'll write something like this in a note:
TODO Follow-up with Bob regarding the FY15 budgets
Problem is, at the end of the day or week, I'll have to hunt back through all of my notes to find my TODOs. So I wrote a script to help.
Usage: jeeves.rb [options]
-v, --verbose Run verbosely
-s, --search s Search string to look for in notes.
-i, --ignorecase Search case-insensitively
-d, --days N Number of days in the past to search.
-h, --help Show this message
$ ruby jeeves.rb -d 7 -s TODO
