scratchpad.txt

Idea for backing up notes: when saving, save as ${name}-${currTimeMsEncoded}.edna.txt and ${name}-${name}.edna.txt

${currTimeEncoded} is integer as milliseconds since epoch base32-encoded as a sortable string.

That way we embed creation time in the note, they are sorted by time and it's simple and conflict free compared to e.g. adding unique numberic prefix like `-1`, `-2` etc.

It breaks if time is messed up but that's acceptable.

function encodeBase32(num) {
    const chars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ234567'; // RFC 4648 base32 alphabet
    let result = '';

    do {
        result = chars[num % 32] + result;
        num = Math.floor(num / 32);
    } while (num > 0);

    return result;
}

function encodeCurrentTimeBase32() {
    const timeInMillis = Date.now(); // Get current time in milliseconds since epoch
    return encodeBase32(timeInMillis); // Convert that time into a base32 string
}

// Usage
console.log(encodeCurrentTimeBase32());
