Query Inline YAML fields

[kennygo]

Things I have tried

What I’m trying to do

I have 2 notes as described as example below. NoteA contains inline fields Project Name & Project Duration. In NoteB, I tried to retrieve the Project Name and Project Duration values from NoteA. However, it does not return any value. I am guessing that I am not using the correct method in getting the inline fields values. As I managed to get values if I move these inline fields into YAML frontmatter. Any advice?

Note Name: NoteA

Project Name:: Project Avengers
Project Duration:: 10 months

Note Name: NoteB

All the following js return no values
$=dv.pages('"NoteB"').Project-Name
$=dv.pages('"NoteB"').Project-Duration

$=dv.pages('"NoteB"').project-name
$=dv.pages('"NoteB"').project-duration

I have also tried using dv.current in NoteA just to get the inline fields value. Same issue return no value.

Hi, anyone have idea? There was some typo in earlier post. Updated as below. Basically I am trying to get value with attribute name with a space in between ie. Project Name. I tried attribute name with “-” ie. Project-Name with not value return.

You have two issues:

• you need to use dv.page() instead of dv.pages(), because you’re defining as source a page and not pages inside a folder or with a specific tag: use dv.page("NoteA")
• the second issue is related with the use of the key as expression (this is a key:: value); in simple dataview queries you can use an “-” replacing the spaces (this-is-a-key) but in dataviewjs javascript doesn’t allow that and you need to use another index method:

`$=dv.page("NoteA")["Project Name"]`

• in simple dataview queries you can use the “-” method (this-is-a-key ) and a js similar with the prefix “row”: row["this is a key"]

Thanks. It works
