Create notes storage from Evernote

First, you need to create new Boostnote storage by ever2boost. And you can choose which command do you use, import or convert.

import

Import all of notes from cloud storage at Evernote.

import command has 1 option d which specify output directory.

$ ever2boost help import
Usage:
  ever2boost import

Options:
  d, [--directory=DIRCTORY_PATH]  # make Boostnote storage in the directory default: ~/evernote_storage

import from evernote

get your developer token from https://www.evernote.com/api/DeveloperToken.action
run ever2boost import

$ ever2boost import
DEVELOPER_TOKEN: <input your developer token>

And import will start. It uses EvernoteAPI, thus you should take care access limitations.
