Diary helps you make daily notes. You can really easy add information into vimwiki that should be sorted out later. Just hit <Leader>w<Leader>w (\w\w) to create new wiki file with name based on current date. The link to this newly created file is added to a diary wiki file.
Usage example with default settings
Consider today is 2010-01-27.
Hit \w\w.
Diary index file ~/vimwiki/diary.wiki is created.
2 following lines are added to ~/vimwiki/diary/diary.wiki:
= Diary =
|| [[2010-01-27]] ||
File ~/vimwiki/diary/2010-01-27.wiki is created and you are ready to add your information there.
On the next day.
Hit \w\w.
New link is added into ‘Diary’ section in ~/vimwiki/diary/diary.wiki:
= Diary =
|| [[2010-01-28]] || [[2010-01-27]] ||
File ~/vimwiki/diary/2010-01-28.wiki is created and you are ready to add your information there.
By default there are 4 links on the line. All links are sorted by their dates and dates are in iso format.
Calendar integration
If you have calendar.vim installed you can use it to create diary notes. Just open calendar with :Calendar and tap Enter on the date. Wiki file would be created in default wiki’s diary.
Download
Get calendar from vim.org and vimwiki with a diary stuff from vimwiki downloads.
Let me know if it doesn’t work for you.
upd
Check vimwiki with new table support. It includes a bit fixed diary stuff.
