history
Project history and usage
evernote-backup is a CLI for keeping a local SQLite backup of Evernote notebooks and exporting that backup to ENEX files.
Project history
The README presents the project as a backup and export tool for Evernote and Yinxiang accounts. Its core workflow is database initialization, incremental syncing from the Evernote Cloud API, and offline ENEX export.
Adoption history
The project documents portable binaries, Homebrew for macOS, pipx and uv for Python tool installation, Docker images, and source installation with Poetry, which made it usable across desktop and server backup setups.
How it is used
A typical run initializes `en_backup.db`, syncs account changes into that local database, and exports notebooks or individual notes as ENEX. After initialization, users can schedule `evernote-backup sync` to keep the local database current.
Why package nerds care
The package is notable in the notes-migration niche because it separates online sync from offline export, giving users a scriptable backup database rather than only a one-shot conversion tool.
