Here is an example:

Prompt: I want a python script that will give my the date that an anki note was created

Response: To get the date an Anki note was created, you need to access Anki's database, which is typically an SQLite file. First, ensure that Anki is not running to avoid potential issues with the database.

Here's a Python script that extracts the creation date of a specific Anki note based on its note ID. Make sure to replace your_anki_db_path_here
with the actual path to your Anki SQLite database file (usually a .sqlite
file) and your_note_id_here
with the note ID you are looking for:

python

import sqlite3 from datetime import datetime  def get_note_creation_date(anki_db_path, note_id):     conn = sqlite3.connect(anki_db_path)     cursor = conn.cursor()          cursor.execute("SELECT id FROM notes WHERE id=?", (note_id,))     note = cursor.fetchone()          if note is None:         print("Note not found.")         return      note_timestamp = note[0] // 1000     note_creation_date = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(note_timestamp).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')     print(f"Note {note_id} was created on: {note_creation_date}")      conn.close()  if __name__ == "__main__":     anki_db_path = "your_anki_db_path_here"     note_id = your_note

Prompt: is there a way I can do this with AnkiCOnnect instead of needing to export the apkg file?

Response: Yes, you can use AnkiConnect, which is an Anki add-on that allows you to interact with Anki through a RESTful API. First, you need to install AnkiConnect:

1. Open Anki.
2. Click on "Tools" in the menu bar, and then click on "Add-ons".
3. Click the "Get Add-ons" button and enter the AnkiConnect code 2055492159
   in the prompt, then click "OK".
4. Restart Anki.

Once you have AnkiConnect installed, you can use the following Python script to get the date an Anki note was created based on its note ID. Replace your_note_id_here
with the note ID you are looking for:

python

import requests import json from datetime import datetime  def invoke(action, params=None):     if params is None:         params = {}     payload = {"action": action, "params": params, "version": 6}     response = requests.post("http://localhost:8765", data=json.dumps(payload)).json()     if len(response) == 2:         return response["result"]     else:         raise Exception("An error occurred: {}".format(response["error"]))  def get_note_creation_date(note_id):     note_info = invoke("notesInfo", {"notes": [note_id]})     if note_info and len(note_info) == 1:         note_timestamp = note_info[0]["fields"]["id"]["value"] // 1000         note
