Dataview inline query don't run on note creation from templates and on reloading Obsidian

Developers: Plugin & API

Hello,

My Templater’s template contains Dataview inline queries that should retrieve frontmatter properties defined by the template. When I create a new note from that template the inline queries are inconsistent, sometime producing the expected result and sometimes showing the default string for queries that “render as null”. I have to pass the cursor through them to actually see query results. How can I consistently view the query results on note creation from template ?

Steps to Reproduce

  • Create a new throwaway vault
  • Install Dataview and Templater plugins
  • Create a new note for the following template
    <%*
	let noteTitle = "This is a title";
-%>
---
note-title: <% noteTitle %>
---
# `= this.note-title`
  • Use Alt-N to fire the command “Templater: create a new note from template” and select the template created in the previous step.

output

I noticed that when executing the “Dataview: Rebuild current view” command, all inline queries get updated. Is there a way to add an event handler that execute that dataview command when necessary ? (I don’t know when it should actually be done: on tab focus change ? on opening a note ?)

Also, everytime I reload Obsdian with command “Reload app without saving”, inline queries are consistently producing the default string for null results.
