`pip install diarycli`
Alternatively there is a shell version if you are averse to python/pip package manager as well:

I've been using this for years, it doesn't have any fancy features - it only reliably opens up/create today's diary in vim whenever I type `diary` in command line. with some minor utilities.
It is life changing - having `diary` where I can type my thoughts into whenever. I maintain a separate one both for work and life - and both are proving invaluable.
