Onenote export to HTML. NOTE: This script is now maintained at https://github.com/Danmou/onenote_export

onenote_export.py

### README
# This Python scripts exports all the OneNote notebooks linked to your Microsoft account to HTML files.

## Output
# The notebooks will each become a subdirectory of the `output` folder, with further subdirectories 
# for the sections within each notebook and the pages within each section. Each page is a directory 
# containing the HTML file `main.html` and two directories `images` and `attachments` (if necessary) 
# for the images and attachments. Any sub-pages will be subdirectories within this one.

## Setup
# In order to run the script, you must first do the following:
# 1. Go to https://aad.portal.azure.com/ and log in with your Microsoft account.
# 2. Select "Azure Active Directory" and then "App registrations" under "Manage".
# 3. Select "New registration". Choose any name, set "Supported account types" to "Accounts in any 
#    organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts" and under "Redirect URI", select Web 
#    and enter `http://localhost:5000/getToken`. Register.
# 4. Copy "Application (client) ID" and paste it as `client_id` below in this script.
# 5. Select "Certificates & secrets" under "Manage". Press "New client secret", choose a name and 
#    confirm.
# 6. Copy the client secret and paste it as `secret` below in this script.
# 7. Select "API permissions" under "Manage". Press "Add a permission", scroll down and select OneNote, 
#    choose "Delegated permissions" and check "Notes.Read" and "Notes.Read.All". Press "Add 
#    permissions".
# 8. Make sure you have Python 3.7 (or newer) installed and install the dependencies using the command 
#    `pip install flask msal requests_oauthlib`.

## Running
# In a terminal, navigate to the directory where this script is located and run it using 
# `python onenote_export.py`. This will start a local web server on port 5000. 
# In your browser navigate to http://localhost:5000 and log in to your Microsoft account. 
# The first time you do it, you will also have to accept that the app can read your OneNote notes. 
# (This does not give any third parties access to your data, as long as you don't share the client id 
# and secret you created on the Azure portal). After this, go back to the terminal to follow the progress.

## Note
# Microsoft limits how many requests you can do within a given time period. Therefore, if you have many 
# notes you might eventually see messages like this in the terminal: "Too many requests, waiting 20s and 
# trying again." This is not a problem, but it means the entire process can take a while. Also, the login 
# session can expire after a while, which results in a TokenExpiredError. If this happens, simply reload 
# `http://localhost:5000` and the script will continue (skipping the files it already downloaded).
