oh strange, I'm on MacOS and trying to make a note with the lookup tool. doing it all pretty idiomatically

it creates the note truncated. It's not just how it's being displayed

It works fine for me on Linux. @User @User I think you use Mac, right? Did you ever experience something like this?

If it is just for editing, I simply use the OS to sort in the folder and open back in Dendron

Something I learned the other day is that

@actions/setup-node

will preserve the per-user

npm

cache for you if you set

with:cache: npm

, and similar for

yarn

. This has been enough to get my Actions->Netlify pipeline[1] down to around ~90s. [1]: https://luke.carrier.im/notes/soAskHwFxI1EM8dZIDvBN/

any differences with using

setup-node

vs

actions/cache@v2

and caching

node_modules

?

My understanding is that caching the

node_modules

directory can have unintended consequences if the architecture/OS/OS version changes, because some packages build native libraries and they may not get rebuilt correctly.

setup-node

uses

cache

internally, but caches the cache dirs in the user's home directory and does

hashFiles()

on all the

package-lock.json

files it finds in the tree

Probably not a concern outside of testing pipelines with multiple OSes in the matrix, but it seems fast enough without digging deeper into it now. I can give it a shot though, if the numbers are good enough it might be worth it

Anyone have an idea for time tracking in Dendron? Specifically: - Are you keeping the data in Markdown? - Ex:

- Dev Start: Thursday January 27 2022 15:58:26
- Dev Finish: Thursday January 27 2022 16:51:38

- Or in the YAML frontmatter? - How are you aggregating the data?

Eh... another topic... So, are you all storing non-markdown files in your Dendron vault? - Things like: python files (.py), sql files (.sql), PDF's, etc? - Or do you keep those in separate folders on your file system then link to them from Dendron as needed?

Trying to show my note graph, but I'm getting a blank white screen...thoughts on where to look. Likely user error... https://github.com/TWUOnline/ma-lead-map

Time Tracking in Dendron

Non-Markdown Files in Vault

I wonder if you have the Dendron Workspace open(?)

hmm...I think so

How would I check such a thing...?

just found an error message on the page (white text on a white background...hard to see... "Applicaiton error: a client side exception has occured (see the browser console formore information)"

Could you link the page? This sounds related to a bug we've been chasing where if you have a title named "Process" in the page it crashes.

It's on what would be the graph page...isn't that local to my machine?

Oh nevermind then. Please do file a bug report for that though

sure

Is it possible not to publish children only for a particular node (and not on a global level)? Say if I'm writing a book and I'm manually writing the index, I don't want a "children" heading only at the book level

yep. not documented yet but you can set global: enableChildLinks: true in the note frontmatter

tried these two:

---
id: KraUBl3Bftx3Cl8aUC4kT
title: Visual Communication
desc: ''
enableChildLinks: no
updated: 1643352503429
created: 1643339031026
---

and

---
id: KraUBl3Bftx3Cl8aUC4kT
title: Visual Communication
desc: ''
global: 
    enableChildLinks: no
updated: 1643352597988
created: 1643339031026
---

still the children nodes are generated (tried in ``dendron publish dev`)

Can you try:

global:
  enableChildLinks: false

No luck. the children nodes are still generated; May be I will try to generate the whole site;

publish dev

generates children nodes

I have

templates.weekly.md

with the contents of

Today is {{ CURRENT_YEAR }}

, but when I insert this template into a note, the variable isn't replaced. Am I missing something with how the new template variables work?

The template variables have been temporarily disabled due to a bug. There's a bug fix coming that will enable it again soon, sorry for the trouble in the meantime!

ahh gotcha

What are some ideas to collaborate on a single Dendron document? Use case: - A stranger and I want to collaborate on a document - We both use VS Code (and Dendron!) - Need ability for asynchronous edits (no VS Code Live stuff) because of different schedules/timezones/etc. Is the only current method to spin up a GitHub/GitLab/etc repo and manage all that overhead?
