Hey everyone!
I would like to share Hardcover, a plugin that syncs your Hardcover.app library to Obsidian notes.
I initially created this plugin mostly for myself, to keep information on the books I read offline and locally in my Obsidian vault. As people started using it and requesting features, I’ve been working on expanding and improving it.
What this plugin does is it creates one note per book with all your reading data (status, rating, read dates, series info, etc.) stored as frontmatter properties. It uses a delimiter system so you can add your own notes, thoughts, and quotes, and they’ll be preserved during syncs.
Features
- Import your entire Hardcover library as Obsidian notes
- Only sync books that have changed since your last sync
- Store book information as frontmatter properties
- Customizable format
- Group your book notes by author, series, or author→series automatically.
- Use wikilinks for authors, contributors, series, publisher and genre to create linked notes
Feedback, issues and contributions welcome!
