Add subfolders #125

Issuehunt badges

Thanks for awesome app, exactly what I was looking for.

I might have miss, but for the first look haven't found this in issues. It would be cool have possibility to make nested folder structure, adding subfolders. Also, default syntax for folder and opportunity to edit syntaxes list (hide unused), would accelerate and simplify adding new notes. And lastly, would be very useful have more options for customizing Finder. Search by tags, change font, theme, sizes, hide sidebar, etc.

Everything else has already been said in the other threads. I am very happy that found Boostnote, it will be very actively used.

Thank you for your feedback.

It would be cool have possibility to make nested folder structure, adding subfolders.

We need to discuss this issue more. How many notes you have? And, I'll make a new issue about it later.

default syntax for folder and opportunity to edit syntaxes list (hide unused)

This acutally is planned. I think It will be shipped within 2 weeks

lastly, would be very useful have more options for customizing Finder. Search by tags, change font, theme, sizes, hide sidebar, etc.

It would be great. But, all of problems is how it should be.(For me, designing app is MUCH HARDER than writing code) Could you give me more information here? #85

artdevjs commented 8 years ago

@Rokt33r Hey! Sorry for delay, a little bit busy this weekend.

We need to discuss this issue more. How many notes you have? And, I'll make a new issue about it later.

Currently I have approximately 170+ code snippets which I want to keep structured by categories, for a quick example:

JavaScript:

DevOps:

AppleScript:

Shell scripts:

Automation:

and so on.

Also I have about 400+ bookmarks in the raindrop. I really like it. but it's absolutely not suitable for storage code snippets. I tried to use SnippetsLab, Dash, GistBox, CodeBox, and others. In most cases opportunities are very limited, I can't feel like in the editor/IDE. Even such simple things as make a comment on the usual hotkey, unfortunately almost impossible anywhere, about a deeper customization can only dream of, and usually support with updates always leaves much to be desired. In addition to all I want to store personal library of markdown docs, different tech manuals and hotkeys cheatsheets, for example be able make a quick edits in them to use it with cheaters. Now for this I use MWeb, but I feel not a very convenient to constantly switch between different apps, keep them always running, remember different hotkeys for the same things, I think it isn't right when this kind of apps, doesn't have ability to change hotkeys, or at least doesn't follow the usual macOS hotkeys (I'm sure there are good reasons). From time to time I'm doing the cleaning in the snippets, bookmarks and other relevant stuff, but over time, the amount of material which I would like to keep only growing. And finally, I think I found what will eventually become the instrument of dreams for this. I have a lot of material but it's scattered absolutely everywhere where only it's possible, want to put everything in order.

default syntax for folder and opportunity to edit syntaxes list (hide unused)

Cool, this is a great news!

It would be great. But, all of problems is how it should be.(For me, designing app is MUCH HARDER than writing code) Could you give me more information here? #85

I need to think how to do it better, make a small analysis of personal preferences and observations, highlight the best things from all that I already tried, and of course how this may be the most useful and convenient for all. I'll write in #85 in a few days.

Rokt33r commented 8 years ago

Great! Thanks you so much! Your feedback is so helpful.

I am acutally going to several ways to keep and indexing notes by the purpose like #123 .

Even such simple things as make a comment on the usual hotkey, unfortunately almost impossible anywhere, about a deeper customization can only dream of, and usually support with updates always leaves much to be desired.

Let's do it.

I think these api should be provided customizable hotkey. And also I think i should provide some scope of hotkey.(It might be optional)

Api key scope
New note(default behaviour, same as clicking the plus button) Cmd + N(OS X) / Ctrl + N(Others), a(when focusing SideNav) global
New Snippet note Cmd + N S / Ctrl + N S global
New Markdown note Cmd + N M / Ctrl + N M global
New note dialog Cmd + N N / Ctrl + N N global
Delete note Ctrl + Backspace(OS X) / Ctrl + Delete(Others) global(except focusing editor)
Focus detail e side nav and list
Focus editor ? detail and list
Focus tag input ? detail
Focus filename input ? detail
Focus syntax mode input ? detail
Add Favorite Cmd + D / ? global
Focus search input Cmd + P / ? global
Change font size of renderer Cmd + +(OS X) detail
Focus sidebar(to navigate folders and storages by arrow keys, and ) list and detail
Create folder Shift + A side nav
Delete folder d side nav
Add Storage ? side nav
Unlink Storage ? side nav
Rename Storage ? side nav
Focus Note List(to navigate notes by arrow keys, and ) Esc sidenav and detail

? is I cannot sure which key would be proper. I think some of them doesn't need to be provided by default. If I missed something or did wrong, please tell me.

I want to store personal library

It is so interesting. I think if we provide a storage like Wiki, it would be helpful for building it.

By the way, I want you to join our slack. If you don't mind, send me an e-mail and I'll invite you. fluke8259@gmail.com It is integrated with this storage. So, you could check our progress easily.

I'm look forward to your next feedback. I'm glad to help you realize your ideal. 👍

UltraG33k commented 8 years ago

Hi! Lovely app. I also have feature requests: An option for the following

It would be nice to not have to make fixes to do so. Thanks in regards :)

Rokt33r commented 8 years ago

@UltraG33k We might be able to implement it with this. Thanks for your reporting. https://www.npmjs.com/package/auto-launch

Rokt33r commented 8 years ago

@ArtemMedvedev We decided to implement the nested structure of folders. 👍 I'll inform you the detail later.

frtru commented 7 years ago

Any news on the nested struct of folders feature? Looked at the changelog and PRs, but I can't seem to find anything..

pat-s commented 7 years ago

Push the "nested folder" idea!

oicitrapdraz commented 6 years ago

No news yet? It would be great to be able to create subfolders, otherwise it's difficult to organize so many notes.

ctoscano commented 6 years ago

@Rokt33r Hi. Thanks for your contributions. Any news on supporting subfolders?

Rokt33r commented 6 years ago

We're going to renew Boostnote soon. And, definitely, the renewed app should have sub folders.

ctoscano commented 6 years ago

Wohoo. Thanks for the update @Rokt33r. Is there a branch I could follow? I'd be curious to learn how a feature like that would come to exist.

Rokt33r commented 6 years ago

@ctoscano Not available yet. I'm going to quit my job at the end of this year to focus on this project. I'll address it when I'm ready to go!

mehrdad-shokri commented 6 years ago

Hey @Rokt33r sorry for pinging again, when do you think this feature will be available?

danvayn commented 6 years ago

Excellent Notetaking app for developers but I'm still waiting on subfolders for note organization

corept commented 6 years ago

I'm also very interested in a sub-folder feature. Hopefully coming soon.

orlando commented 6 years ago

I think this should be handled with tags instead, but if this becomes a feature for sure I'll use it

invacuo commented 6 years ago

Agree with @orlando. Bear notes supports nested tags and is super easy and convenient to organize my notes.

thecountoftuscany commented 6 years ago

Thanks for the great app! I am also looking forward to seeing the nested folders feature implemented.

zmrhaljiri commented 6 years ago

The best MD notes for Windows :) Please, nested folders are just one thing that's missing to the 100 %.

Leiknir commented 6 years ago

Any news about this? For me, this is the only feature missing that would make boost note as the primary app for managing my notes. Thank you.

P0oOOOo0YA commented 6 years ago

Can't believe such a fundamental feature has not been implemented yet.

orlando commented 6 years ago

You are free to implement it @P0oOOOo0YA

liam-b commented 6 years ago

Seriously considering switching from Evernote to this, but subfolders are a vital part of my workflow!

Benoit1980 commented 5 years ago

No subfolders yet? Wow this is a very basic feature that kills the whole snippet idea, sad.

Dreamer3783 commented 5 years ago

Subfolders — forever! I fully pass on to you from Nimbus Note, when you organize subfolders. Thank you for your app. You — better and the best!

aakbar5 commented 5 years ago

any update on this feature request?

lanox commented 5 years ago

Hi any update on subfolders please.

Flexo013 commented 5 years ago

Currently it does not look like anybody is working on implementing subfolders.

If you would really like this feature, then consider funding it on IssueHunt. That way developers are incentivized to pick up this feature request.

Benoit1980 commented 5 years ago

It is ok thanks, I am thinking about building something similar very soon with Electron for people to download for free. I think it is needed. Should not be too difficult.

Flexo013 commented 5 years ago

There were many ideas thrown around in this thread/issue, but it's hard for these to be picked up by devs when they are scattered through a long thread.

Let's make this issue focused on "Subfolders" as they seem the most popular of the features.

@artdevjs @UltraG33k @orlando Feel free to open separate suggestions/issues for the other features that you suggested!

orlando commented 5 years ago

Sorry this took so long that I switched to Notion and I’m not using this app anymore. I won’t be able to work on this.

Flexo013 commented 5 years ago

@orlando Understandable.

issuehunt-oss[bot] commented 5 years ago

@issuehunt has funded $40.00 to this issue.


WeslleyNasRocha commented 5 years ago

I will try to look on it, can't promise anything, but i will try

AntowaKartowa commented 5 years ago

As a workaround it is possible to make folders in your Dropbox and add them as additional storage.

Ghost-Writter commented 5 years ago

yeah, i want subfolders for using that app. it's should be vital.

issuehunt-oss[bot] commented 5 years ago

@hub45 has funded $10.00 to this issue.


dirathea commented 5 years ago

Hi guys, Currently I tried to start working on this features, here's my work in progress https://github.com/BoostIO/Boostnote/pull/3288. This is my first PR on this repo and I hope I could give a little contribution 🙇

Feel free to give comments and suggestions for my work.

Thanks

An anonymous user has funded $10.00 to this issue.


Purukitto commented 4 years ago

Can I work on this?

Flexo013 commented 4 years ago

@Purukitto Yes you can, it's also worth checking out the current PR #3288 and see if there's anything that can be improved for that implementation.

issuehunt-oss[bot] commented 3 years ago

@a-hubbard has cancelled funding for this issue.(Cancelled amount: $10.00) See it on IssueHunt

pabrams commented 2 years ago

Hello, I'm confused... it looks like Boost Note already has this feature: image Also, all these issues and bounties are still open, but it looks like there hasn't been any activity in a while. Is that why the name of the repo has "legacy" in it? What does that mean, if the bounties are still open? @Flexo013 @Rokt33r
