same here. i am in the middle of completing a project so i took a hiatus from dendron onboarding and this message pops up.. how much is dendron tracking?

we have that prompt if dendron has been inactive for a few weeks

i shudder at the thought if all my extensions started doing that... "hey extension installed but not used" == "hey variable declared but not used.. yet"

Yes, probably that behaviour less than ideal for other extensions, but if you are not using you note-taking tool for a long time, something is not right. Maybe the timing could be tweaked a bit and this popup should be shown during the first several month (if there is weeks of inactivity) after Dendron is first installed.

Need help with steps to be performed on remving dendron workkspace from

git sync

and move to

OneDrive

?

You can copy the whole workspace folder to OneDrive. If you want to remove git, you can also delete the

.git

folder inside of your Dendron workspace.

Wondering your thoughts on changing the word "workspace" to "repo" here... - Personally, I'm confused by the term "workspace" mostly because BOTH VS Code and Dendron use it AND I don't know if theres a difference - It confused me further when we call the (cloned) repo a "Workspace" too. - Anyone else feel the same/different?

I don't know what's the best way to describe the current state of it, but we're moving towards a simpler system & terminology where we only have vaults, and one repository matches one vault. I think that would be simpler to explain and think about. I'll have an RFC for that tonight, I'll make sure to tag you to get your feedback.

As far as I understand it at the moment it is called workspace because a Dendron workspace is a vscode workspace

The RFC I promised: https://docs.dendron.so/notes/aOOBYTowLEKJDEtLWFiHb/ And the discussion for it: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/discussions/2349#discussioncomment-2106014

Right, but if you read the text in the screenshot, the instructions highlighted do not refer to VSCode/Dendron "Workspaces", but rather actual git repositories.

note name won't allow me to use

.. and

\

won't allow me upload files to onedrive 🤬.. now i have to rename all my files using refactor.. which relies on regex which means the possibility of shooting myself in the foot

can anyone give me the regex for filename like

xyz.abc\1.def\2.md

to be renamed to like

xyz.abc-1.def-1

?.. i want to replace each

\

in the hierarchy name to

...also can i just use mv + regex to rename files in shell instead of in vs code?

I don't already have that regex, but https://regex101.com/ has saved my feet from inexperienced misfires many times! Maybe it'll help you write & test it?

i used a workaround.. in match text

and in replace text

....i had to do this three times because it won't catch the

Copying code snippets from the Dendrone Note Preview seems to lead to formatting issues, including spacing and html entities showing up as entity literals:

# Note Preview Result
async <TResults, TBody = unknown>

# Markdown Preview Result
async <TResults, TBody = unknown>

Dendron delete node doesn't delete a

[[...]]

text in the other markdowns.. it just de links them

instructions on how to create a template and use it need to be clearer...

version: 1
imports: []
schemas:
  - id: customs-act
    title: customs-act
    parent: root
    template: customs-act.template
    children:
      - pattern: '*'
        children:
          - pattern: sro-[0-9]+@....
            children:
              - pattern: sro-[0-9]+@....

i built a schema and a template but it doesn't work beyond depth 1 i.e. root note -> child note.. and does not work beyond that... also.. it needs to be clearer if i need to use

Dendron: Insert Note

or

Dendron: Lookup

to create a note with the template?

The template will automatically apply if it matches. You do need to specify the template at each level though I think, so you need to add

template: customs-act.template

to each level here.

The patterns can also be a bit confusing, but they are not regex. They are extended bash globs. For example, if by

[0-9]+

you mean "one or more digits", that actually needs to be

+([0-9])

instead.

We do have some documentation for how the patterns work that should come out along with the next release (I wrote it a few days ago). You can read it already here: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron-site/commit/530aba9d534e8074dc3166135ac7d9c2620f4668 Schemas are a bit difficult to get sometimes, sorry about that! We're trying to improve our documentation, so thanks for the feedback.

i don't know the number of levels beforehand... i need to create a schema that applies my template at each level regardless of how many are created... but creating a schema is difficult.. i was only able to create this one from the wiki section on how to auto create a schema from a few already created notes

dendron just died on me... possibly vscodium fault..

which logs do i send?

on an unrelated note: almost sure dendron is not supposed to do this after Refactor Hierarchy. i have to keep closing the text editor and reopening it to get the correct graph

bug 3: while trying to create a note using Ctrl + L ...

error while running command: Request failed with status code 500

.... it won't let me using the word "market" in the note name

Hi @User @User , thanks again for the amazing work. I had a quick question about the vision of dendron with regards to its integration into vscode. I have noticed that changing some flags in the usual settings.json of VSCode, such as "Default Journal Add Behaviour", is deprecated. Instead, it is recommended to use dendron.yml for that. Is it the plan to have more settings moved into Dendron's own files? I would argue that the tight integration of Dendron into the normal VSCode workflow is very appealing.

hey @User - dendron will always have first class support for vscode. that being said, we also plan on making dendron available through other clients (eg. CLI, other IDEs, the web) which is why we're moving settings to

dendron.yml

. also, no need to ping

DendronTeam

, we scan feedback a few times a day 🙂
