Helper for template plugin

Basement

Things I have tried

I searched on Obsidian help and on the forum.

What I’m trying to do

I would like to know if Obsidian supports any helper functions in the template plugin.

In particular, I would need a helper which capitalize the first letter of {{title}}. The reason is that I want to have the note filename to start with a lowercase such that [[filename]] is better integrated inside text, but the h1 title # {{title}} to start with an uppercase. Currently, I am just replacing with uppercase by hand, which is a slight annoyance.

If there is no helper, I would say that it could be a good feature to consider.

Update: The solution below works great, thanks to @Moonbase59 !

I think I would have preferred basic string operations implemented in the core since to avoid loading one more plugin, but for now it’s an excellent solution.

Easy if you use the Templater plugin.

Just put a template like this in your file:

# <% tp.file.title.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + tp.file.title.slice(1) %>

:grin:
