I’d like to compare Obsidian settings between two installations on different computers. (I’m using Windows, Android)
Ideally, I’d like a metadata file containing all the settings from an Obsidian installation including the plugins and their settings. I would use the file to simplify installing “our standard” implementation and to troubleshoot inconsistencies.
Why? I’m creating a base configuration for a Windows-Based Analyst Workstation. The analysts would be using shared note files from OneDrive.
A recent experience with a Templater template file that uses <% tp.file.cursor() %> threw and error when a user didn’t have the [Automatic Jump to Cursor] set to “ON” for Templater plugin.
Of course this is a simple issue, but I expect more complicated ones as we develop our practice.
i do something similar between my platforms (single user): batch script on windows and shell script on linux to sync data.json updates on plugins and core plugin jsons
but in my case, i am the administrator and can manually run these files for any bookmarks, etc. updates i want reflected on my other platforms
in your case, a base configuration for multiple users(?) should be kept to a minimal amount of external plugins where one admin over ssh would update all users data at intervals
unless someone writes a plugin for commercial use i don’t see how or who would do this for you
so the minimal requirement would be to set things up properly once, copy to every user once and limit the number of times any new copy updates should happen
It’s what I figured. I’m getting close to finalizing my setup. I’m hoping to create a Hyper-V image. I’ve heard that MSFT is getting to the point where we can run VMs from the cloud using a browser. This would be ideal for on-boarding new analysts.
