Obsidian-Snippet-Manager 1.1.0

A script to magically update your obsidian snippets hosted on github.

Obsidian Snippet Manager is a python script that git pull and move CSS file in your .obsidian/snippet folder.

The goal is to provide a pratical way to get semi-auto-update from css snippet hosted on github, in waiting of an eventually BRAT update that support that.

Requirements

1. Git
2. Python
3. pip install Obsidian-Snippet-Manager

Environment

The plugin needs :

• The absolute path of your vault, as : G:\Drive\Vault
• A folder that contains all the snippet you want to get the update. This folder can be everywhere on your computer (yes, it can be in .obsidian too.). It will contain all folder of the snippet hosted on GitHub you want to use.
  In case of the folder doesn't exist, the script will create it !

How to use

1. Adding a new repo : obsnipe clone repository_url
   Additionnaly you can exclude a folder from update with adding the --exclude command : obsnipe clone --excluded [repository_url]
2. Updating everything : obsnipe
3. Updating only a repository : obsnipe update folder_name The foldername is the folder that you want to update the snippet !

The script will :

• Git pull
• Git move every .css file in your .obsidian/snippet folder.

Other function

• obsnipe list : List all Github Repository you download.
• obsnipe exclude [folder_name] : Exclude a folder from update. You can exclude multiple value using : obsnipe exclude [folder1] [folder2]

Note : You can exclude folder from auto update using the exclude.yml file, placed in your Snipper Manager folder.
