Python Planner Generator

This code creates a digital planner (maybe printable someday) for use with the iPad app goodnotes 5.

Features

• An annual overview page with months, days, and optional personal / work goals hyperlinked.
• Monthly pages with weeks, days, and optional personal / work goals hyperlinked.
• Weekly pages with the month, days, and optional personal / work goals hyperlinked.
• Daily pages with a hyperlinked mini calendar and week.
• Annual/Monthly/Weekly personal goals (hyperlinked on each page with the target symbol in the bottom right corner).
• Monthly/Weekly work goals (hyperlinked with briefcase symbol in bottom right corner of monthly/weekly pages).
• Journal pages that can be a full page, half page, or quarter page.
• Lots of hyperlinking. If it seems like it should direct to another page, it probably does.

Using the generator locally

Prerequisites

• Python3 >= 3.9
• Jinja2
• python-dateutil
• playwright (Python)
• Node / NPM

Install

Run

npm install

to install the tailwind dependency.

Building the planner

npm run build -- <start date (YYYY-MM-DD format)> <end date (YYYY-MM-DD format)> <optional arguments> 

To create the PDF from the HTML output, I recommend opening index.html in Chrome and using the "Save as PDF" feature in the print menu. If using this technique, set margins to none and enable background images.

Optional Arguments

usage: Python Planner Generator [-h] [--start-time START_TIME] [--end-time END_TIME] [--file-suffix FILE_SUFFIX] [--work-goals | --no-work-goals] [--personal-goals | --no-personal-goals]
                                [--daily-pages | --no-daily-pages] [--weekly-pages | --no-weekly-pages] [--journals-per-page {0,1,2,4}] [--dark-mode | --no-dark-mode]
                                start end
