The fastest way to install the plugin is using the BRAT plugin.
Copy the main.js, styles.css, and manifest.json files to your vault's .obsidian/plugins/obsidian-gemini
folder.
- Clone repo into the
.obsidian/plugins/local-llm-obsidian-client
folder. - Install NodeJS, then run
npm i
in the command line under your repo folder. - Run
npm install axios
- Run
npm run dev
to compile your plugin frommain.ts
tomain.js
. - Make changes to
main.ts
(or create new.ts
files). Those changes should be automatically compiled intomain.js
. - Reload Obsidian to load the new version of your plugin.
- Enable plugin in settings window.
- For updates to the Obsidian API run
npm update
in the command line under your repo folder.
Highlight a portion of text, the use the command palette to select the appropriate command.
- Update your
manifest.json
with your new version number, such as1.0.1
, and the minimum Obsidian version required for your latest release. - Update your
versions.json
file with"new-plugin-version": "minimum-obsidian-version"
so older versions of Obsidian can download an older version of your plugin that's compatible. - Create new GitHub release using your new version number as the "Tag version". Use the exact version number, don't include a prefix
v
. See here for an example: https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-sample-plugin/releases - Upload the files
manifest.json
,main.js
,styles.css
as binary attachments. Note: The manifest.json file must be in two places, first the root path of your repository and also in the release. - Publish the release.
You can simplify the version bump process by running
npm version patch
,npm version minor
ornpm version major
after updatingminAppVersion
manually inmanifest.json
. The command will bump version inmanifest.json
andpackage.json
, and add the entry for the new version toversions.json
- Check https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases/blob/master/plugin-review.md
- Publish an initial version.
- Make sure you have a
README.md
file in the root of your repo. - Make a pull request at https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases to add your plugin.
- Clone this repo.
- Make sure your NodeJS is at least v16 (
node --version
). npm i
oryarn
to install dependencies.npm run dev
to start compilation in watch mode.
- Copy over
main.js
,styles.css
,manifest.json
to your vaultVaultFolder/.obsidian/plugins/your-plugin-id/
.
- ESLint is a tool that analyzes your code to quickly find problems. You can run ESLint against your plugin to find common bugs and ways to improve your code.
- To use eslint with this project, make sure to install eslint from terminal:
npm install -g eslint
- To use eslint to analyze this project use this command:
eslint main.ts
- eslint will then create a report with suggestions for code improvement by file and line number.
- If your source code is in a folder, such as
src
, you can use eslint with this command to analyze all files in that folder:eslint .\src\
You can include funding URLs where people who use your plugin can financially support it.
The simple way is to set the fundingUrl
field to your link in your manifest.json
file:
{
"fundingUrl": "https://buymeacoffee.com"
}

{
"fundingUrl": {
"Buy Me a Coffee": "https://buymeacoffee.com",
"GitHub Sponsor": "https://github.com/sponsors",
