convert vimwiki to markdown: `sed -f ex -i *.md`

convert.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

for x
do
  filename=$(echo $x|sed -e "s/\.wiki$/.md/")
  sed -f ex $x > $filename
done

这个脚本可以将 vimwiki 语法的项目，自动转换成 markdown 语法。
转换的内容包括：

• header
• codes
• wikiword.
• links
• images
• comments
• %toc
• %title
• %nohtml

转换方法

假设上面的脚本保存结构如下：

/
|- convert.sh
|- ex
|- vimwiki/
  |- index.wiki
  `- vim.wiki

在 convert.sh 同级目录执行：

$ ./convert.sh vimwiki/*.wiki

然后自动或手动微调之后，删除 .wiki 文件。

I suggest to quote the filename variable to avoid the issue when there is space in the file name:

sed -f ex "$x" > "$filename"

I prepared a slight modification of your script. Mostly I wanted to put it into one file, not two...

#!/bin/bash
# ========================================================================
#       Converts VimWiki formatted markdown to Github markdown
# ========================================================================
# adapted from this script:

# must use gnused because of here-document
# watch out for the spaces and tabs with here-documents

#
# usage:
#
# vw2md.sh  [fileglob, e.g., wikidir/subdir/*.txt]

#   input can have any extension, .txt, .wiki, .markdown
#   output will be given .md extension (can be changed: $oext)

oext='md'
for infile in $@; do
  [ -e "$infile" ] || continue
  ext="${infile##*.}"
  base=$(basename "$infile" "$ext")
  dir=$(dirname "$infile")
  outfile="$dir"/"$base""$oext"
  #echo  infile "$infile"
  #echo base "$base"

  then
    gsed -f - "$infile" > "$outfile" <<- '      SED_SCRIPT'

Thank you.

One improvement: You should double quote the variables to support whitespaces in filenames.

for x
do
  filename=$(echo "$x"|sed -e "s/\.wiki$/.md/")

  sed -f ex "$x" > "$filename"
done

And you can also rename the file with shell parameter expansion

filename=${x/.wiki/.md/}

" vim 8.2取消了对'|'需要escape的要求，这个算是对其它类似命令一致性的改进/修复，但是也造成之前习惯\code的不兼容
" 更新如下：
%s/\[\[\(\([^|]\{1,\}\)|\)\([^]]\{1,\}\)\]\]/[\3](\2)/ge
