Obsidian: A Plugin for Pelican

Obsidian is a pelican plugin that allows you to use the syntax used within Obsidian and when pelican then renders these posts it won't look weird or out of place.

Phrased differently, if you don't like that # is included in the name of the tag when you name it #my-tag and you think that internal pelican links are difficult to remember and would like to use [[ my link ]] as an internal link instead this plugin would be for you.

Installation

This plugin can be installed via:

# not yet on pypi, but when it is you can install it with.
pip install pelican-obsidian

Usage

Install the plugin as described in the pelican documentation.

In the tags section you will be able to use # without that being reflected in the actual name of the tag. In other words.

Tags: #my-tag

# reflects as
my-tag in the html output.

The backlinks in Obsidian follows this format [[ document | Actual link name ]] The actual link name is optional.

To specify the location of an attachment the following syntax is used ![[ filename.jpg ]]. They explain more about the syntax in the section on how to embed files
