Is this possible right now? I could'nt figure out a way to do it.

And thanks for this extension! it's super cool.

Hey! Just to confirm: are you interested in having a sub-directory in your repo that WikiLens both discovers pages and creates them within? (e.g. /docs). If so, we could add a setting such as WikiLens: Root Directory that defaults to "", but could be set to a path?

chiubaca commented 3 years ago

Yes exactly this. That would be perfect!

Root Directory suggests only documents from given folder will be shown/scanned.

Let me share my suggestion. I believe, these could be separate things:

while other manually created folders in Root Directory can exist as well.

Of course, names of the folders are examples only.

At work we keep a wiki directory in the same repo as all the code. Seems like this extension could be pretty handy for browsing and editing that content if we could set the Root directory to some subfolder.

Really cool extension, btw!
