Follow symlinks for manifest.json #59

Closed waynevanson closed 8 months ago

waynevanson commented 1 year ago

Currently when the manifest.json is at the root is a symlink to another file (packages//manifest.json), the plugin returns a notification saying the repository does not a valid manifest.

This is because the symlink is a file that contains the relative path to the actual file.

I've never tried this. Do you know if a symlink is used that works with Obsidian? In other words, does Obsidian follow a sym link?

After publishing the plugin to obsidian, it looks like they don't use it there either.
