FR: Scheduled formula and lookup refresh #415

Open arminta7 opened 11 months ago

arminta7 commented 11 months ago

Hello! I'm looking for an option between autoupdate, which slows my large, metadata laden vault to a halt, and manual refresh. Maybe there could be an option to update on a scheduled interval?

Thanks so much for this great plugin!

Thank you for your feedback.

I'm working on a new version that is less dependent on dataview and obsidian for indexing values changes, therefore doesn't trigger a reindexing each time a character is entered. It has also a function to launch a full re-calculation of lookups and formulas that aren't auto-updating.

I think I need an extra month to test it because there are significant changes compared to the current version.

If you are interested in testing let me know, I'll try to organise and alpha test

Oh yes, I would definitely be interested in testing! I have a couple of different vaults of varying size and complexity that would be good testing grounds. Let me know!
