Obsidian #3

Unlimited POWAAAAA!*~

I found a shell command extension for Obsidian on PC that let me put scripts in the command palette. So naturally, I decided that I wanted to fully generate the journal and build the site from within Obsidian. Sooo...

I manually split up the original journal.txt into their individual journal entry files in the Journal directory because I'm an idiot. I could have written a script to do that, but it was literally faster to just copy and paste the files, and fix the headers.

Ya know what? I'm, pardon my French, really fucking proud of myself for this project. I've got some really cool automation going on through the command palette.

I first generate journal.txt and then I run the shell script to build the journal.

rm /home/holly/.config/jrnl/journal.txt && cat Journal/* >> /home/holly/.config/jrnl/journal.txt && /home/holly/Projects/livejrnl-builder/build.sh

Really excited. 😄
