Found it!
[[/name-of-note]]
Plus, you can select and hit <CR>
and it'll actually find and link it. Amazing!!
I solved the same issue with custom wiki resolver as suggested in the documentation, here is what I use.
My use case is similar to yours, my journal
entries always have yyyy-MM-dd
format, and it's under diary
subfolder. I don't use <CR>
mapping, but AFAIK it calls one of "open" or "follow" methods.
So the below code determines if the link belongs to diary or not. This allows to keep the same [[2021-07-22]]
or [[227466515787 Current Status]]
format.
As the very least you'll need to change diary
to journal
in code if you decide to try it.
HTH
let g:wiki_resolver = 'WikiResolver'
function! WikiResolver(fname, origin) abort " {{{1
if empty(a:fname) | return a:origin | endif
let l:f = fnamemodify(a:fname, ':t')
if (match(l:f, '\d\{4}-\d\{2}-\d\{2}') == 0)
let l:path = wiki#get_root() . '\diary\'. l:f
else
let l:path = wiki#get_root() . '\'. l:f
endif
" Determine the proper extension (if necessary)
let l:extensions = wiki#u#uniq_unsorted(
\ (exists('b:wiki.extension') ? [b:wiki.extension] : [])
\ + g:wiki_filetypes)
if index(l:extensions, fnamemodify(a:fname, ':e')) < 0
let l:path .= '.' . l:extensions[0]
if !filereadable(l:path) && len(l:extensions) > 1
for l:ext in l:extensions[1:]
let l:newpath = l:path . '.' . l:ext
if filereadable(l:newpath)
let l:path = l:newpath
break
endif
endfor
endif
endif
return l:path
endfunction
... I like to use it as one big graph of connected notes. When I create a link in my journal I notice it doesn't link to the wiki in my root, but instead tries to find it in my journal.
How can I link from my journal to my root?
As you already figured out, the idea is to use /
to "root" the link. The point is that, by default, all links are relative to the current file. To link to a file from the wiki root, one uses the [[/my link]]
format with the /
.
As @bybor explains, one can also customize the wiki resolver function, which allows quite a lot of flexibility in this behaviour. My goal is to have a more than decent default that should work for most people, while still allowing flexibility for those who want to change things.
@bybor: Just curious, what is "HTH"? A signature, i.e. your initials?
It's "Hope This Helps" 😉
Ah; thanks! :)
I have a wiki much like this.

Thanks for the great plugin 👍 .
