Create a note from list of installed plugins

[OGRobrain]

What I’m trying to do

I’m trying to generate a new note that contains a list of all my installed plugins in order to document my reasons for choosing them, describe them for other members of my team, etc.

I can go to .obsidian/plugins to get a list of the repo names, but ideally I’d like a list of clickable plugin names. I could also do some file system scripting to visit each plugin and parse the manifest. But before I do that I wanted to know if there’s a method inside Obsidian.

Thanks

Decided to create a command-line tool whilst I wait to see if Obsidian can do it natively.

find . -name manifest.json -prune -exec jq -r '"* [\\(.name)](\\(.authorUrl))", "  - \\(.description)"' {} \; | pbcopy

creates the following on my Mac’s clipboard (having installed jq with brew install jq

Which is close, but the URLs are incomplete - the JSON includes the authorURL but not the actual URL to the specific plugin. So that’s a supplementary question - how do I get the full URL of a plugin from either the filesystem or inside Obsidian?

Mainly gratuitously bumping, but also wanted to add (after the edit button became unavailable) that the find command above is run after:

cd <VAULT_FOLDER>/.obsidian/plugins
