[Feature Request] Blacklist notes from showing the banner
Closed this issue · 8 comments
I really like the plug-in, however, it would be wonderful if we could blacklist certain notes from showing the local graph, such as notes pinned in the sidebars.
Thank you for the feedback!
Unfortunately, this plugin cannot control the content of the local graph, so please try to use the "Filters".
I actually meant that some notes will not show the banner when active, not whether or not they show up in the local graph.
I'm sorry I misread it.
I've reopened the issue.
@ras0q What about a blacklist feature in settings that allows users to suppress the graph banner based on file name or a file property? If you'd be open to it I could put a PR together.
@madigan very good!
Actually, I was thinking of adopting .gitignore syntax for blacklist implementation, using https://github.com/kaelzhang/node-ignore, etc. if you don't have a strong preference.
If you could put a PR, I would very much appreciate it!
@ras0q I can totally do that. I like using the .gitignore syntax.
The only other thought that I had was that it might be helpful to be able to do ignores based off of markdown properties. The use case I'm thinking of is that all my notes have a type property, and it would be helpful to disable the graph for a given "type" of note (such as my "meta" notes which have an absurd number of links). The benefit would be that the .gitignore approach will require a consistent naming schema (or blacklisting each individual file).
That being said, these two things are not mutually exclusive. I could add support for .gitignore now, and then we could look at adding other means of blacklisting after further discussion?
@madigan
I couldn't quite imagine how to use properties to ignore files, but indeed, ignoring the meta notes seems like a good strategy. I really appreciate it if those who are motivated can work on it.
With this new feature, is it possible to blacklist whole folder (/DontShow/ThisFolder/ ), just like the gitignore syntax?
