Recover .md files frome .cson (encoding conversion) #1901

Closed tholop closed 5 years ago

tholop commented 6 years ago

Hi there, Like some people all my notes recently disappeared from the interface. Fortunately I was able to make a copy of all the .cson files embedding my notes. They look like this :

'createdAt': '2018-04-18T06:19:05.544Z'
'updatedAt': '2018-05-02T12:44:19.801Z'
'type': 'MARKDOWN_NOTE'
'folder': 'c0beb159f2b71c11de80'
'title': 'Métaphysique moderne'
'content': '# Métaphysique moderne\n\n*L\'expérience chez Kant et Hegel*\n\n## 1. L\'expérience comme problème philosophique\n\n'
'tags': []
'isStarred': false
'isTrashed': false

Now I want to recover a clean .md file from this content field. I tried different encoding conversions but I couldn't find the right way to replace the \n by returns in my editor. Moreover this string contains french characters such as é.

Please do you have any idea?

Thanks

Hi, thank you for your support. Indeed it's good to save notes as markdown before loosing them! My point is that due to some bug I no longer had my notes but only some unreadable .cson files, so exporting notes isn't relevant for me :) No worries anyway, this issue is old now. I guess such problems don't happen anymore. Cheers
