Embed code file

Feature archive

I am learning programming and using obsidian to organize my codes. Now I can only write code in markdown’s code block. Although I can write them in other editors like vscode and then copy them to obsidan, it would be inconvenient to modify and organize those codes.

I think it would be great to embe a code file (such as .cpp, .py) as a code block. So that I can deal with the code file separately.

This request may similar to Support embedding plain text files or Allow reading & writing .txt files as well as .md. But my request does not contain editing code, just embed them like images and videos.

Would love this feature

I’d love to see the ability to

  1. Open .txt, .py, .conf, etc and have them automatically display as a full-page code block.
  2. Be able to embed these files in a note, displayed as a code block.

I’m a network engineer, so I’d mostly be working with Juniper and Cisco config files as well as some python.
