Is it possible to add a script to dendron initialization?

I want to execute arbitrary code on startup.

Specifically, I am looking to add a sync utility to pull down any new kindle highlights.

I don't suppose I can just dump markdown in there, though, I'll need to generate proper files via dendron, yeah?

I suppose this will be something that is wrapped in a

pod

?

The import pod looks to take a configuration. Where is this configuration stored, exactly, and is there a default version I can look at?

This is the best information I can find but I am not sure about where or how to use it: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/34893663-b1cc-4c4f-aea7-6f1728365b89.html

Also, invoking with dendron cli sounds good -- I can cron what I am thinking of.

(if I don't manage to shoehorn a startup import)

OH! Well, that's clever -- it opened up the config file I needed to edit in vscode but I just noticed that.

tricksy developerses.

^_^

Apologies if I am spamming, folks. I'm just in a bit of a descent into madness.

Does anyone have tips or recommendations to relieve poor impulse control through technical tools? I still have a hard time to stay away from communication channels and Youtube when I'm trying to work, because "new ideas tend to have bad timing" plus some degree of impulsive behavior probably. To stay somewhat on topic for this channel, I was wondering if there are people who use their own archiving systems (dendron and/or other) or downloaded sources to enable offline work. Or do you find that it's better to focus on managing those impulses directly instead of just making it harder to open off-topic applications?

Well for me that are scratch notes and Brain Dumps just dumping my current brain buffer down.

can you see if you can reproduce the issue if you run the CLI to preview the site? https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/23a1b942-99af-45c8-8116-4f4bb7dccd21.html#connect-to-open-workspace check what version of CLI and 11ty are installed: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/a6c03f9b-8959-4d67-8394-4d204ab69bfe.html#dendron-cli the latest versions are 0.46.1 and 1.46.1 respectively

for running code, we don't have something to run code at startup but we let you execute code during note lifecycle events using hooks: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/12551d19-04c2-4d26-ac1e-d23ff3181a9c.html

i use dendron as a cache - the information i lookup either is in dendron or i find it online and file it away so i can find it in dendron in a future date

see https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/3e7baac6-f120-4378-a667-92e7a0869dca.html

Thanks for the replies! Makes sense, will see if I can improve my approach over time

I'll often use the Pomodoro Technique when I'm feeling extra impulsive or can't keep focused on a task. Basically, you write down what you want to focus on, set a timer for 25 minutes, and then if any impulses or distractions come up, you just add them to a list of things you'll do after your 25 minutes on the task are over. After that 25 session, you give yourself 5 minutes to do something not related to the task. If you still want to do the stuff on your impulses list, you've got 5 minutes to get your brain's wiggles out! But you strangely also might realize you don't really care so much about them anymore. There's a ton of different apps and timers that you can use, but I'd say to read about the whole technique first, not just start looking for an app: http://baomee.info/pdf/technique/1.pdf I'll often just set a timer on my watch or phone, turn on "do not disturb" so I won't get notifications, then note my distractions, plus the start, break, and finish times for each task right in my daily note in Dendron. Hopefully some of that helps!

Not related to Dendron but is there a settings in vscode so that I can move down every visual line when pressing

k

? (with vim extension)

not that i'm aware of. would cut/paste not do it?

I think separating it into different lines will help just want to know because I write long sentences in vscode

misunderstood. yes, you can prefix your command with ‘g’ to move visual lines

thanks! that helped

Just looking at the docs and have a question. I see that one can visualize a tree graph, which is great. Is it also possible to render a link graph? What about tag visualization? Are they possible or planned?

Hey you may want to take a look here, about what is already planed https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/c998c642-a748-4f77-9285-cfec35330251.html specifically at the children Plan and Design as well as here: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/587e6d62-3c5b-49b0-aedc-02f62f0448e6.html for the new Graph View that is currently getting implemented based on the RFC.

Thanks. Looks good.
