A simple and unofficial interactive command line interpreter client for Google Keep.

It uses the nice unofficial API client gkeepapi

As described also in that repository, keepcli is not supported nor endorsed by Google.

Development

I wanted a simple cli tool that can easily be in sync with multiple devices and although there are alternatives like todo.txt which is an awesome tool, I prefered to keep my quick TODO's and notes in Google Keep, however there is not a public API for it nor a similar cli (given my shallow search).

As a very active Google Keep user (among other Notes-taking tools) I developed this for my own needs during some free time, mainly to add, check/uncheck and move TODO items from various lists and add notes quickly when working from a terminal screen which is very often. It's been very productive to get things done and have multiple TODO list up to date and move items between them among others, it has a nice TAB autocompletion for some of the useful commands. Might be useful for others in a similar situation. I also keep track of dailiy activities, and things to do during the current and next week, moving items and pinning notes.

Some offline features have not tested in too much detail and there might be some hidden issues, this is note a production-grade tool and is distributed 'as is'.

I'll keep adding features as they are needed, based on my free time, contributions are welcome.
