Collections and sub Collections as folder-structure #22

Open StoltHD opened 3 years ago

StoltHD commented 3 years ago

Is it somehow possible to export the Collection structure as a folder structure? Or can you add this function?

I have seen someone asking for all Parent Collections (i.e. the complete structure) as "Topics" If you are to implement this, would it be possible for you to add a feature to choose either "Topic" or "Folder Structure" or both?

Great tool... I have looked for something like this for a long time, so thanks...

Could you clarify a little what you mean by folder structure? The parent collections as topics would just use comma-separated links for each parent collection. An example of how the export would look would be helpful!

It's easy, the same structure as folders on disk as the collections in Zotero... so if you have a collection structure like Collection 1

You get the same folder structure in the root folder that you choose (i.e. the obsidian vault)

This will be in addition do the "Topics", or a YAML Frontmatter ...
