What I’m trying to do
I am using Templater to populate a template file for meeting notes with some basic data (filename, topic, date, etc.) — I also want to use part of the filename (to be exact, the last word) for a frontend element called title.
The template looks somewhat like this:
<%*
let var_customer = await tp.system.prompt("Customer Name")
-%>
---
title: <% tp.user.getlastword(file.name) %>
date: <% tp.file.creation_date("YY-MM-DD") %>
tags: mtg_minutes
---
customer: <% var_customer %>
topic: <% tp.file.cursor() %>
As you can see, I have defined a JS function for the title based on the function getLastWord. That JS function is looking as follows:
function getLastWord(str) {
// Split the string into an array of words
const words = str.split(' ');
// Return the last word in the array
return words.pop();
}
module.exports = getLastWord();
However, when I am trying to use the template, I continuously get the error message “Default export is not a function”.
Things I have tried
I try to simply export the function via export = getLastWord();
- that does not work as well.
I am not quite sure what I am missing here - any help is highly appreciated
Thanks a lot!
