    Exporting GoodLinks Highlights to Craft

    I’ve been exploring Craft more, now that I took advantage of their 50% off for life promotion. It’s been fun discovering all the new features since I last used it, as well as how I can integrate apps like Things and GoodLinks, which I have been using more often.

    My most recent discovery has been exporting highlights in GoodLinks to a new Craft document. I think I have a pretty good setup, so it’s time to share!

    First off, you will need to edit the GoodLinks export template (Settings > Highlight > Edit Export Format). I ended up with this template, but feel free to customize however you like:

    {{#tags.0}}
    Tags: {{#tags}}{{name}}{{^is_last}}, {{/is_last}}{{/tags}}
    {{/tags.0}}
    
    {{#author}}
    Author: {{author}}
    {{/author}}
    
    ---
    
    {{#highlights}}
    *{{created_at}}*
    
    {{content_md | blockquote}}
    {{#note}}
    
    {{note}}
    {{/note}}
    {{^is_last}}
    
    ---
    
    {{/is_last}}
    {{/highlights}}
    

    You will also want to make sure “Include highlights in Markdown” is checked on this setting page as well.

    Then you should install my shortcut.

    There are two import questions when you install the Shortcut:

    • First to choose the space for the new note
    • Then an optional Folder selection. I skip that one, as they by default go to Unsorted, which I treat as an Inbox.

    The best place to run this workflow is on iOS because the GoodLinks iOS app has a custom action you can create for this shortcut. To set that up, go to Settings > Custom Actions and click the icon in the upper right hand corner to ‘Add Action’.

    On that screen, enter a name, choose an icon and a color. For the URL field use:

    shortcuts://run-shortcut?name=GoodLink%20Highlights
    

    Then, once you are on an article in GoodLinks and have made some highlights, access the more menu and you should see your custom action up top:

    Click that and the end result should be something like this in Craft:

    Hope someone finds this useful!

    Cazenovia Lady Chiefs took home the 19u championship tonight at Buffalo RiverWorks, with a 4-0 shutout. Great team victory!

    Uhhh, looks like the NYT is continuing its streak of stellar coverage. I am sure there are many people and stacks of government subsidies that would like a word with “single-handedly.”

    Gonna be a long 4 years.

    Appropriate time for this shirt.

    Can’t believe this kid is a senior. In a way, he’s always been an old soul. Smart beyond their years; a truly empathetic, caring person; a great friend to all; and naturally talented at whatever they try. Milo gives me hope for the future, because I know he will be in the mix helping to create it.

    Birthday Northern Lights! So awesome.

    Whelp that was cool. Clouds opened up just in time!

    Saw Sunny Day Real Estate tonight - been over 20 years since the last time and they sound just as good as ever.

    Can’t believe it’s travel hockey season already. Really glad we fell in with this great group of families & girls. Looking forward to see where they go in their first year at 16u.

    Loving the new wallpaper we put up yesterday in our small bathroom. Another step toward completing the project!

    21 years with this amazing lady!

    Got to see Thrice play The Artist in the Ambulance tonight in full. So good live!

    Today, Chet and Watson. So cute. Didn’t last long though. 🤣

    Zoey’s high school team won their area championship yesterday and head to states on Friday. Also, Z got her cast off and is able to start playing again. Back at practice tonight!

    The Cazenovia girls representing their high school hockey teams before last night’s championship. Playoffs start this coming week! #rollkengi

    Zoey was unable to play, but we made the trek down to catch the championship game of her teams tournament. Cazenovia took the ‘ship with the game winner in OT with 10 seconds remaining. 🎉🏆🏒

    Zoey’s wrist injury (now in a cast for two weeks) is forcing her to miss the outdoor game of her hockey tournament today. Not too sad. 🥶

    Cazenovia ladies won their tournament this weekend in Pittsburgh. Zoey got two goals, the game winner, and MVP. 🏆🏒

    This team is ridiculous. 9-0 in league play, no goals allowed. 11-0 in total, with two goals allowed. Some great role models for Z to model her game after in the coming years.

    A drink (or two) with the Mrs at a fabulous new neighborhood bar, recently opened by an acquaintance. Can’t beat this within walking distance.

    Picked up some new books based on various recommendations I’ve been seeing on micro.blog 🎉📚

    Thankful to get out of the house after the blizzard and do some winter hiking and snowshoeing with the Mrs.

    Day after the blizzard. Local grocery store is open and queued up to buy groceries. Feel apocalyptic today.

    Whelp this blizzard has been something. It’s been insanely windy since Thursday overnight (70 mph gusts), constant whiteouts since Friday AM, -10 windchill, and we’ve gotten about 2 ft of snow - with drifts over 5 feet. Thankfully we are home, safe and warm. Hoping it ends soon!

    The Cymande re-issue came! Gonna be listening to this a lot today.
