You can compose any *nix command to process the result, like this:

cat ./core/clippings_en.txt | ck-cli parse | jq .[].title | sort | uniq
# result text should be like this:
# "Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup"
# "凤凰项目 一个IT运维的传奇故事"
# "论法的精神"

Compose with ClippingKK Http Service

you can pass cli token to local config

ck-cli --token "COPY FROM https://clippingkk.annatarhe.com" login
cat ~/.ck-cli.toml

You can also just parse file and put it to server with token for once:

ck-cli parse --input /path/to/My Clippings.txt --output http

the http in output is magic word and it will send parsed clippings to server.

you can manually define where should it send and the http request headers by edit config in ~/.ck-cli.toml

If you want integration with CI service, you can set config as secret. and to do something you want
