rofi-notes-org

A simple rofi-script that helps you catch and access notes with rofi and store them in a simple Emacs Org-mode (or plain text) file.

Installation

Use npm to install rofi-notes-org globally.

$ npm install -g rofi-notes-org

Needless to say, you have to have rofi installed as well.

Initial configuration

rofi-notes-org needs a config file located at ~/.config/rofi/rofi-notes-org.yaml with the following properties:

notes-file: "~/.notes_org"
# Path to the text file where the data (notes) will be stored.
# WARNING: this file has to be already created.

plain-text-format: false
# If set to true the specified `notes-file` will be in
# plain text format rather than using Emacs Org-mode format.

At this point calling the script from the terminal should execute without errors.

$ rofi-notes-org

Usage

To use this rofi script, call it like this:

$ rofi -show notes -modi "notes:rofi-notes-org"

You may also want to use it in a combination with other modi like this:

$ rofi -show notes -modi "notes:rofi-notes-org,run"

You may also want to bind it to a hotkey in your window manager or desktop environment of choice.
