The only file,

root.md

does this only happen when you use collapse?

I thought it was, but I deleted the collapse stuff and the same issue occurs

my dendron is in 0.12,7

I initialized a new workspace and the results of the build pod shows the same error too

can you send me the output of

dendron: open logs

?

Sure

oh, you've turned on server mode! yeah, build pod doesn't currently work with server mode turned on. that will be fixed either tomorrow or the next day 😅

Ahh 😅

my fault, didn't add that to the release notes. will update it now!

What does server mode means? I looked up the changelog and saw this:

Dendron can now index and manage your notes as a standalone local server independent from VSCode.

How does it differs from a standalone app?

@User today, the dendron engine is a library which gets imported in every extension that uses dendron.

|dendron plugin <-> dendron engine | 

|dendron markdown notes plugin <-> dendron engine | 

|dendron markdown preview enhanced <-> dendron engine | 

|dendron graph  <-> dendron engine |

the downside of this model is that EVERY extension will index your notes separately, resulting in lots of duplicate work. this gets worst the more notes you have. also, because the engine is a library, engine work will cause vscode to slow down and block until it is done. in server mode, the dendron engine runs as a separate process from vscode. all extensions in a given workspace can utilize a SINGLE server

dendron engine server

|dendron plugin |
|dendron markdown notes plugin |
|dendron markdown preview enhanced |
|dendron graph |

this is a much more scalable way of indexing notes since its only done once per workspace. in addition, because the dendron server is a fully featured server, it allows us to build rich javascript based frontends into vscode itself

this is an early demo of a graphical hierarchy builder running inside vscode https://www.loom.com/share/72ab6833478141a19ec9ee92c690171f

in the near future, you'll be able to create schemas and access other dendron functionality through a modern web UI - aka anything that is possible to build using javascript and HTML will now be possible to be done inside Dendron and VSCode

> , you'll be able to create schemas and access other dendron functionality through a modern web UI This is super cool, this feature will be implemented as what the screenshare vid demonstrated?

it'll be similar. i ended up not going for drag and drop for schemas since it wasn't that practical since a schema is a single tree 😅 the actual schema builder will be built on top of this https://frontend-collective.github.io/react-sortable-tree/?path=/story/basics--add-and-remove-nodes-programmatically

this is in accordance with our "function over form" principle 🙂 https://dendron.so/notes/7fcebd7d-6411-4c9d-8baf-65629dc018a1.html#function-over-form

Ahh, that makes sense, I'm super excited and looking forward to the future updates

Are there any git vsc extensions that can help me do git push? I tried the "Git" extension but it doesn't do anything when I run GIt: Push (I configured the personal access token)

Question about the scratch notes. It’s now build into the lookup bar. Do I need to click on that button to toggle it on each time I want to create one, or am I missing something

No, you do Ctrl + L (lookup), click the scratch note icon and it'll change into a scratch note

Can I do it without using the mouse?

I would like to ask that too, it'll be great if we can

I use the journal note icon to create new daily journal notes. Until a few days ago I think I was able to use the same icon to quickly switch to today's journal. This seems to no longer work. Clicking the icon suggests the proper day but only show 'Create New' which obviously fails the second time I do this. Am I missing something or am I just doing it wrong?

> Can I do it without using the mouse? @User There should be a command for it. Check it at

ctrl-shift-p

-> "Dendron: create scratch note". I think the default hotkey for it is

ctrl-shift-s

That has been deprecated @User But I do notice that using the TAB button while in lookup mode is able to control those toggles. But the behavior is not very easy to control

Ah, you can see the tab changes if I use a different theme

Also, there is different behavior for lookup “shift command S“ and “command L”

Oh, i didn't catch that. I stand corrected then

> That has been deprecated @User @User Are you sure? It seems to work for me (I'm on 0.12.6) on Windows though. Not sure if MacOS is different
