    with local being the new default, is it possible to migrate an existing vault to local?
  • s
    Do you mean self contained vault? Yes, please see the instructions here: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/aikv0yamnfkcowlol7qeldy/

    my github publish workflow throws new errors after updating to a self contained vault:
    Copy code
    Run yarn dendron publish export --target github --yes
yarn run v1.22.18
$ /node_modules/.bin/dendron publish export --target github --yes

    any idea why that might be happening? What part of my configuration is relevant here?

    Where are the keybindings of dendron defined in VSCode ?
  • h
    if you type 
    Preferences: Open Keyboard Shortcuts
    in the command palette, an editor will open with a search bar. You can type 
    dendron
    and look at all the commands that 
    Dendron
    provide that has keybindings (as well as the ones that don't have keybindings at the bottom).
  • n
    Many thanks @hikchoi , My question was unclear: I thought about the file, where I find these definitions
  • h
    VSCode doesn't save it in a file. When you have an extension installed, VSCode grabs keybindings from all installed extensions and load it during start-up. You can open up the entire list of it as a JSON though. using 
    Preferences: Open Default Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)
    . This isn't opening a file that exists in the file system. It's just there for reference.
  • n
    Thanks again, that is really useful
  • n
    In this list I see : { "key": "ctrl+enter", "command": "dendron.gotoNote", "when": "editorFocus" }, But some other dendron key have a stricter when clause, which references dendron:pluginActive like for example { "key": "ctrl+shift+c", "command": "dendron.copyNoteLink", "when": "dendron:pluginActive && editorFocus" }, Is this by design, or is there an error ? I don't know enough about VSCode to decide this .
  • m
    I'd love to know an answer to this as well. In the meantime, I'm thinking about treating Dendron itself as a kind of document database with wiki links forming relationships, but that's about as far as I've got.
  • k
    so this is still very early but we're looking to store the dendron metadata in a sqlite database (currently its just generated in memory and dumped to a json file). this should open the door to integrate dendron with any local application that can speak sql
  • m
    That's very exciting, thanks Kevin! The ability to aggregate different data sources and present them in a meaningful way is hugely valuable. And it gets even more interesting when you start to link up a whole load of different vaults with different groups of people...
  • m
    In case it isn't obvious from the slightly tangential leap in my previous comment, I've been exploring different tools for networks-of-networks style collaboration and co-creation, and found very little that's genuinely open. I'm currently thinking about how Dendron could be used to that end.
  • k
    yep, agreed. it also unlocks a lot of advanced functionality on our end. there is lots to build šŸ˜…

    Hey guys, quick question: Probably I've missed something, but when I edit long note, I always have to scroll Preview down to see my changes realtime. Is there a way to make Preview following my typing position in the document? thanks
  • s
    No, the Dendron preview doesn't synchronize with your note scroll. It is planned, but we don't have a timeframe for when it will be done.
  • a
    Thanks
  • a
    Sorry, another question: Do you have any plans to make Graph more into Mind Map? Where I could collapse/expand groups of nodes, walk with keyboard across nodes.. move things around, maybe change relationships (adding metadata to it inside nodes), etc? Current graph is hard to use when trying to have an overview of structure of notes.. it kind of does the function, but can't use it to have this effective "window" into my data.
  • s
    I don't think there are any plans for that, but a couple thoughts: 1. If you have any ideas on how this would work, you can write an RFC. These are proposals for new features, and they guide new features we'll implement. See here: https://docs.dendron.so/notes/f143ca38-dcc6-4cd3-b84b-997aec1160ef/ 2. We're starting to work on stabilizing the Dendron API. Once that's done, it should be pretty easy for someone to implement something like this as a separate extension.
  • a
    Thanks for the RFC.. I wish I had time for that.. I think Graph could be pushed into totally new level becoming a very strong part of Dendron. Will get back to this after few months in case nobody takes it. Nice news regarding API!
  • a
    By the way, when thinking on how my organization could replace current Confluence with Dendron, I see two main blockers: 1. Collaborative, real-time editing; 2. Note(page) Permissions. I guess there is nothing on these points yet, right?
  • i
    it looks like there's a bug in there. When I create a new daily journal note, the title is generated in slug is 
    title: ournal-2022-05-25
    for me
  • i
    Copy code
    journal:
        dailyDomain: daily
        name: journal
        dateFormat: y.MM.dd
        addBehavior: childOfDomain
  • i
    not sure why
  • k
    do you have a schema or note trait active? if you delete this note, run "reload workspace" and then create a daily journal, does it still show up?
  • k
    if so, can you dm me the output of running 
    Diagnostics Report
    ?
  • i
    sure one sec
  • s
    I have a question: have you any plans to realize live preview? Something like in Obsidian. Or may be we already have a good and compatible VSCode plugin?
  • a
    Re: meta content on export, is it trivial or complicated to modify the 
    <meta name="description" content="Dendron is a local-first, markdown based blah"/>
    stuff? (what is displayed in various social media previews when pasting a link)
