v1.16-beta-13

New Features 🎉

Via the API for Note Toolbar, you can now open a prompt modal, or get content from the clipboard:

(BETA) Note Toolbar API: Open a prompt modal

NoteToolbarApi.prompt(): Shows a prompt modal and returns the user's input.

• The parameters are the same as Templater's function that does the same thing, accepting:
  • prompt_text: Text placed above the input field.
  • default_value: A default value for the input field.
  • throw_on_cancel: Throws an error if the prompt is canceled, instead of returning a null value.
  • multiline: If set to true, the input field will be a multiline textarea. Defaults to false.
• Returns the user's input.

(BETA) Note Toolbar API: Return clipboard contents

NoteToolbarApi.clipboard(): Returns the clipboard's contents.

Improvements 🚀

• In toolbar settings, made the Custom classes field larger. Thanks @laktiv
• Reordered the toolbar's right-click menu, to put position/properties toggles at the top, and settings at the bottom.

Fixes

• The menu CSS class is now added to sub-menus, so CSS snippets can be applied to them as well.
• Custom styles/classes are now added to menus and sub-menus. Thanks @laktiv

v1.16-beta-12

New Feature 🎉

(BETA) Note Toolbar API: Open a Suggester modal

The first publicly available API for Note Toolbar allows you to open an Obsidian Suggester modal, enabling Dataview JS or JS Engine scripts to prompt the user for a selection.

• The parameters are the same as Templater's function that does the same thing, accepting:
  • text_items: Array of strings representing the text that will be displayed for each item in the suggester prompt. This can also be a function that maps an item to its text representation.
  • items: Array containing the values of each item in the correct order.
  • throw_on_cancel: Throws an error if the prompt is canceled, instead of returning a null value.
  • placeholder: Placeholder string of the prompt.
  • limit (optional): Limit the number of items rendered at once (useful to improve performance when displaying large lists).
• Returns the user's chosen item.
• The API will be considered BETA beyond this plugin beta release, until more functions are added in the future (e.g., manipulating toolbars, and other UI components) and I consider naming and organization of the methods available.
• Provide feedback on the release announcement.
• Huge thanks to Templater's code and documentation!

See an example below that works with both Dataview and JS Engine:

/**
 * Opens a suggester to allow the user to make a selection.
 * Uses the BETA Note Toolbar API.
 * 
 * Usage:
 * - Add a Dataview or JS Engine item to your toolbar and select "Execute JavaScript".
 * - Add the path to this JavaScript file.
 */

const options = ["option 1", "option 2"];
const selection = await NoteToolbarApi.suggester((item) => item, options, false, "Select an option:");
console.log(selection);

Full Changelog: 1.16-beta-06...1.16-beta-07

v1.16-beta-06

Install the beta via BRAT (instructions).

New Feature 🎉

Execute a command after creating a file from a template (Templater).

Notes:

• Depending on how this tests, this can be added easily to other script functions/types.
• Note that creating a file from template will now no longer focus the file explorer on the new file, but you now can explicitly do that by selecting the Files: Reveal current file in navigation command.
  • Though I couldn't get this command to work reliably in my own testing, while other commands seem to work fine. I'm open to getting help to figure out why. I'm wondering if I have to wait for the file-open event explicitly first, before execution.
• Thank you @pdelre for inspiring the idea for this one in #203
