a vault has a ‘fsPath’ property which defines the folder path and a ‘name’ property which defines the name. the guide goes over just changing the name. changing the path of the folder would also require the folder rename

yep, you’re right 😅

Hi, when I try and create a new note using lookup it seems to want to create a schema so I get an error that schema can only be one level deep.

What keyboard shortcut are you using to do so?

MacOS so it’s cmd + shift + L

Try just cmd L

I’m a dummy, thanks!

No problem! I do the same thing a lot

Or even worse, if im in a non dendron workspace I use the lookup command all the time

happens to me as well 😅

Hi, extracting highlighted text with lookup isn't working for me, does anyone know why this can be?

What shortcut are you using?

I'm using Ctrl + L for lookup

Actually, it was calling the wrong lookup command - I changed around the shortcuts and it fixed it 👍

Quantified self folks, is there a way to use daily journals to enter data for the day and parse it afterwards?

Currently I have a python script that lets me enter whatever for that day and saves it to a json file and shows some primitive stats, would be nice to use Dendron for that

Also, has anyone made a comparison of Drendon vs org-mode/emacs?

i'm a recovering QS person 😅 you can use the frontmatter in dendron to store arbitrary metadata (https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/ffec2853-c0e0-4165-a368-339db12c8e4b.html) we don't currently provide a built in way of visualizing/parsing but 1) have plans to do this and 2) you can parse it pretty easily using anything that can parse frontmatter

you can also export to json and extract all the metadata that way https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/28dfaaf8-4944-447c-be30-39c514a80bb0.html we have a guide of doing this with elasticsearch: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/401c5889-20ae-4b3a-8468-269def4b4865.html#analyze-notes-using-elasticsearch

as for emacs, i'm the vim camp but @User and @User use emacs and might have more to say on that 🙂

Interesting. Gonna look more into this 👌

Curious though, why would you say "recovering"? 😂

used to go over board with quantifying everything and then realized i wasn't actually doing anything with the information besides collecting it in spreadsheets. so now i'm quantifying very little but making sure that what I'm quantifying is actionable

@kevins8 idea: front matter template.

schema templates can apply front matter from the note as well 🙂 we should probably make this easier to use though

I came across Dendron when I saw the Seed Vault announcement, so I'm super new, just learning Dendron, leveling up my VSCode skills at the same time (I haven't done any dev work for several years, so it feels like the world passed me by a bit) Anyway, I finally got to a point where I tried to add a seed vault by following the quickstart, and it gives me what looks like a github permissions error: git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

It looks like it's trying to clone git@github.com:dendronhq/dendron-site.git, so it looks legit?

Oh, as soon as I posted this, I realized I didn't have any public ssh keys on my github account...whoops.

I will note that it added it to my dendron.yml even though it didn't successfully clone it. Probably worth only adding it if it's successful in the cloning.

thanks for the feedback. its probably worth it for us to change the default url to https:// instead of git since i reckon a lot of people will be in a similar boat
