I now see what a Thread is in Discord

Programmers! Do you find yourselves with two instances of VS Code open when you code? One as an IDE and another as your Dendron knowledge base? Curious how you approach these things.

Documents and code are increasingly becoming one (Jupyter notebooks, etc).

I know emacs has the ability to execute code from within say, org-mode files. Will that be possible in Dendron?

Documentation within code

Can I delete these config files in my workspace folder?

This is a great question, so naturally I need to give a silly answer: don't overthink it, you can always rename later. Dendron's "refactor hierarchy" command lets you easily bulk rename notes and handles links for you. I can vouch for it handling ~2,000 file renames pretty well 😀

Do you know if

Right Click/Rename

in VS Code native commands is the same as Dendron

Refactor Hierarchy

command?

Or does

Right Click/Rename

mess things up?

The rename option will rename the file, but not replace the links. If you want to rename the active Dendron note, there's a rename note command for that which will fix links

Ok. I've been renaming filenames directly (oooops!). I'll have to modify my behaviour!

This is a really good UX point, thanks for flagging. I'm not sure if it'd be possible for the extension to intercept these 💭

Yeah that'd be interesting...if I used a VCS, I could determine which filename I changed manually and run the

Rename Note

command.

how do I delete the whole stub? in this case

test

If you want to keep the notes around, there's "archive hierarchy", but if not I'd resort to

git rm -f vault/test.*.md

could there be a command for it?

I had a quick look in our issues and nobody seems to have raised this before. Would you mind opening a feature request here? https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&template=feature_request.md&title=

sure

This might sound like a dumb question but how do you open a workspace or a vault or whatever it is I just created from the command line? I have a directory that has a workspace file with a vault directory inside. If I open the workspace directory it activates dendron but nothing loads. The file browser is the same, there is no calendar, etc. If I open the vault dendron doesn't activate. So the only way I can open my vault is to use the "change workspace" command inside of vscode and its primitive file browser where I have to navigate to the parent directory of my workspace so I can select the workspace. It's super weird. I'm just trying out dendron and ran into this issue. If I can't simply just open my notes from the command line then it's kind of a deal breaker for me.

There are no dumb questions, only simple answers 😜 Does

code /path/to/workspace/dendron.code-workspace

do the trick?

Holy crap, that did the trick. Thanks!

Yeah it's not immediately obvious that one specific file extension is handled differently 😅

Right, I'm used to opening up directories from the command line, not files.

Authors! What is your "exit strategy" for your Personal Knowledge Base? - Are you using Dendron to create project docs for an organization? - In this case, the goal may be to keep your docs are in something like Github and on-board new contributors to handoff the docs - Are you creating private docs like last will and testament, secrets to your spaghetti sauce, etc? - In this case, the goal may be to have your docs outlive you! What types of proactive plans are you engaging to ensure this is fulfilled? - Never really thought about it? (You're not alone!)

Adding

Rename Note

here would suffice?

markdown-indented-lists

what is the default image width in dendron preview/publishing?

Hm. I'm not sure. I know you can control images using a or Example:

You could also try the "Markdown Image Size" extension but I can't confirm whether or not it works with Dendron.

The setting width of image in published pages can be also achieved by using css properties as stated in wiki https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/a91fd8da-6895-49fe-8164-a17acd8d9a17/ Frankly, I just use ImageKit to host images and preconfig it to serve image with max width 300px for mobile browser. Then I don’t need to worry about the image syntax, nor the filesize of images within the repo
