(Feature request) Automated Export of Trilium Note Database to Markdown Files

[reds2006]

Describe feature

Dear Trilium Developers,

I would like to request a new feature that allows for the automated export of the entire note database from Trilium to Markdown files using crontab or a similar scheduling mechanism.

Currently, Trilium provides excellent note-taking capabilities, but there isn't a built-in feature to export the entire note database to Markdown files automatically. Markdown files are widely supported and offer compatibility with a variety of platforms and applications, making them a convenient format for backup and sharing purposes.

Having the ability to schedule automated exports through crontab or a similar tool would greatly enhance the usability and flexibility of Trilium, providing users with peace of mind regarding data backup and portability.

Thank you for considering my feature request.

Trilium is in maintenance mode, so large feature requests like this will not currently be considered.
You could, however use the ETAPI to script something close to this.

Alternatively, you could recommend this as a feature request in the TriliumNext fork which may implement additional features.

ETAPI has an export: https://github.com/zadam/trilium/blob/master/src/etapi/etapi.openapi.yaml#L257

So you could create a CRON with such an export ...
