It was the start of something. For my own purposes I’m more interested in a CLI (command line) application that allows an Obsidian Vault to be synced with a Discourse forum. A CLI app makes it easier to deal with syncing an entire vault or subdirectory, handle internal links in Notes, deal with uploads, etc. The CLI app approach also fits in with some other work I’m doing, so I’m learning something useful from it.
The big downside of the CLI app is that it requires anyone who uses it to have Ruby installed on their computer. It’s also only going to work on desktop computers. There would be some technical challenges with using it on Windows computers.
I’ll post a link to the app on here once it’s ready to share.
If an Obsidian Discourse plugin, as opposed to a CLI app, is something that people are interested in, I’ll look at it again in the future. It’s possible someone else will get to that before me. I didn’t take it much further than the code example that’s posted above.
