EverNoteLoader#

class langchain_community.document_loaders.evernote.EverNoteLoader(
file_path: str | Path,
load_single_document: bool = True,
)[source]#

Document loader for EverNote ENEX export files.

Loads EverNote notebook export files (.enex format) into LangChain Documents. Extracts plain text content from HTML and preserves note metadata including titles, timestamps, and attachments. Uses secure XML parsing to prevent vulnerabilities.

The loader supports two modes: - Single document: Concatenates all notes into one Document (default) - Multiple documents: Creates separate Documents for each note

Instructions for creating ENEX files

Example:

from langchain_community.document_loaders import EverNoteLoader

# Load all notes as a single document
loader = EverNoteLoader("my_notebook.enex")
documents = loader.load()

# Load each note as a separate document:
# documents = [ document1, document2, ... ]
loader = EverNoteLoader("my_notebook.enex", load_single_document=False)
documents = loader.load()

# Lazy loading for large files
for doc in loader.lazy_load():
    print(f"Title: {doc.metadata.get('title', 'Untitled')}")
    print(f"Content: {doc.page_content[:100]}...")

Note

Requires the lxml and html2text packages to be installed. Install with: pip install lxml html2text

Initialize the EverNote loader.

Parameters:

  • file_path (str | Path) – Path to the EverNote export file (.enex extension).

  • load_single_document (bool) – Whether to concatenate all notes into a single Document. If True, only the source metadata is preserved. If False, each note becomes a separate Document with its own metadata.

Methods

__init__(file_path[, load_single_document])

Initialize the EverNote loader.

alazy_load()

A lazy loader for Documents.

aload()

Load data into Document objects.

lazy_load()

Load documents from EverNote export file.

load()

Load data into Document objects.

load_and_split([text_splitter])

Load Documents and split into chunks.
__init__(
file_path: str | Path,
load_single_document: bool = True,
)[source]#

Initialize the EverNote loader.

Parameters:

  • file_path (str | Path) – Path to the EverNote export file (.enex extension).

  • load_single_document (bool) – Whether to concatenate all notes into a single Document. If True, only the source metadata is preserved. If False, each note becomes a separate Document with its own metadata.

async alazy_load() → AsyncIterator[Document]#

A lazy loader for Documents.

Yields:

the documents.

Return type:

AsyncIterator[Document]

async aload() → list[Document]#

Load data into Document objects.

Returns:

the documents.

Return type:

list[Document]

lazy_load() → Iterator[Document][source]#

Load documents from EverNote export file.

Depending on the load_single_document setting, either yields individual Documents for each note or a single Document containing all notes.

Yields:

Document – Either individual note Documents or a single combined Document.

Return type:

Iterator[Document]

load() → list[Document]#

Load data into Document objects.

Returns:

the documents.

Return type:

list[Document]

load_and_split(
text_splitter: TextSplitter | None = None,
) → list[Document]#

Load Documents and split into chunks. Chunks are returned as Documents.

Do not override this method. It should be considered to be deprecated!

Parameters:

text_splitter (Optional[TextSplitter]) – TextSplitter instance to use for splitting documents. Defaults to RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter.

Raises:

ImportError – If langchain-text-splitters is not installed and no text_splitter is provided.

Returns:

List of Documents.

Return type:

list[Document]
