Plugin directory

[argentum]

Moved the alpha plugins to their own thread over here: Meta - Alpha Plugin List (0.9.7+) in order to make it easier for people to find APi-compatible plugins without extra noise.

I won’t be updating this thread anymore, so feel free to add your comments or suggestions in the new thread. The new thread also does not have the following restriction:

In order to keep track plugins that are in active development or are being planned, and so you can find other developers to collaborate with, this thread will collect links to where those discussions are taking place.

Update:

@Licat

The Plugin API alpha is now available! Hype!

As it might be difficult to keep this list for very long, you might want to check the obsidian-md and obsidian-plugin topics in GitHub too.

How to install

@Licat

To install a plugin, simply place the plugin files inside the folder MyVault/.obsidian/plugins/my-plugin/

Notes:

• The plugin folder may not exist, so you’ll need to create it.
• my plugin is a folder that matches the name of the plugin. Developers will usually provide their releases in a zip folder, which you only need to extract in the plugin folder of the previous step.
  As an example, my notes vault has the following plugins:

In order to keep track plugins that are in active development or are being planned, and so you can find other developers to collaborate with, this thread will collect links to where those discussions are taking place.

Off-topic and meta discussions will be moved here: Plugin directory discussions. The focus is on plugins that plan to use the Plugin API, so external integrations (e.g. AutoHotkey, Keyboard Maestro, etc.) will be moved to the meta-discussion too.

Please use the following format:

Plugin name

Short summary of the plugin idea

Links

Add links where other devs or users can contact you to collaborate or discuss ideas (e.g. other forum posts and/or your GitHub repo or issues).

RTL Support

This plugin adds a “Switch Document Direction” command which enables RTL (right-to-left document direction) support. This makes it considerably easier to work on Hebrew, Arabic, Farsi documents etc.
The RTL direction is not just text alignment, it’s the real deal, courtesy of the CodeMirror RTL mode.

Vimrc Loader

A treat for Obsidian Vim-mode users, this plugin loads an Ex commands file, .obsidian.vimrc, and executes them every time Obsidian opens a file.
This provides a vimrc-like functionality that enables persistent key maps, macros and other supported settings.
