Adding your google calendar agenda to your daily journal

Here’s my approach using Templator. I have this integrated with the Day Planner plugin in Command mode. Omit the Day Planner bit if it doesn’t apply.

  1. I create a user command in Templater Settings:
    gcalcli : /usr/local/bin/gcalcli --calendar <work-calendar> --nocolor agenda 12am 11pm | tail -n +3

  2. I add this in my Daily Notes template below the ## Day Planner heading

<%*
let agenda = await tp.user.gcalcli()
let split = agenda.split("\n")
tR += split.map(i => {
 const date = i.match(/([0-9]*\:[0-9]*)\s/gi)
 const event = i.match(/(\[\[)?[A-Z].*/gi)
if (date && event) {
return `- [ ] ${date} ${event}`
}
}).join('\n')
%>
<%* app.commands.executeCommandById("obsidian-day-planner:app:link-day-planner-to-note") %>

Output Looks like:

  • [ ] 09:30 Morning Centering
  • [ ] 11:00 Morning Dog Walk
  • [ ] 11:30 Fika! [T/Th]
  • [ ] 11:40 Book Club
