Insert link button inside dataview container

Help
5

since my last reply i’ve learned a lot more, but now im more confused:

  • since createButton() is a javascript function, that the buttons plugin uses under the hood, (source code) why people when creating js scripts (using dvjs) uses const {createButton} = app.plugins.plugins["buttons"] instead of just createButton() (examples 1, 2, 3)

  • does that mean i can access the buttons plugin variables/ arguments/ syntax from javascript? if that’s the case why the type: link variable isn’t valid, if by using the buttons plugin interface, the button types are: command, link, template, text, calculate and swap

in my daily note i have this text and button:

##### Sueño y sueños
```button
name Log
type link
action obsidian://vault/Notes/Sleep/Log/<% tp.user.sleeplogdate(tp) %>
color blue
```\

i want to fit them both in a single codeblock

Why?

(inspired by the same reasons you gave when creating the container for the header) i :
1 - embed it from a file, this way by modifying the file, all daily notes, including past ones will be automatically modified too
2 - can style exclusively this codeblock, targetting it with CSS

in my daily note im setting a dv.view function (Codeblock Reference - Dataview)

```dataviewjs
dv.view("_js/journalLog")
```\

inside journalLog.js

const {createButton} = app.plugins.plugins["buttons"]
(createButton({
	app, 
	el: this.container, 
	args: {
		name: "Log", 
		type: "link", 
		action: "obsidian://vault/Notes/Sleep/Log/<% tp.user.sleeplogdate(tp) %>", 
		color: "blue",
	}
}))

i can’t even replicate what i could do in the buttons plugin syntax, so im not using other const or appending text yet

  • assuming its not buttons plugin syntax, but the js createButton() function:
    i want to make a button that has inside a note link, what is the correct type variable

  • is there documentation with the list of variables i can chug?, searching createButton() tutorials gave me html tutorials

sorry for replying again, but after days and a couple questions you’re the only user that hasn’t ignored my help requests here
