The journal module exposes a total of six commands. The first three, :Neorg journal today|yesterday|tomorrow, allow you to access entries for a given time relative to today. A file will be opened with the respective date as a .norg file.

The fourth command, :Neorg journal custom, allows you to specify a custom date as an argument. The date must be formatted according to the YYYY-mm-dd format, e.g. 2023-01-01.

The :Neorg journal template command creates a template file which will be used as the base whenever a new journal entry is created.

Last but not least, the :Neorg journal toc open|update commands open or create/update a Table of Contents file found in the root of the journal. This file contains links to all other journal entries, alongside their titles.
