Including subdirectories #10

Closed filipecfv closed 1 year ago

filipecfv commented 1 year ago

Hi. I am enjoying this package; it is a great idea, but it takes all the notes from the subfolders and gathers them all into one single page.

Although surely the most recommended approach is to store all one's notes into a single folder, Denote allows one to organize them alternatively by creating subfolders that are visible via dired-mode view.

That said, is there a way to see the subdirectories in the denote-directory via denote-menu view?

I appreciate any response.

Hi @filipecfv,

As of right now, there isn't any way to do that. This could be something to include in a new release of denote-menu.

To correct my previous comment, looks like denote menu does show files within subdirectories of the denote-directory. Having tested this locally (denote-menu v1.1.1 and denote v1.2.0), I will close this issue

I does show files within subdirectories, but it doesn't show the subdirectories themselves. It rather takes all files, from the main directory and the subdirectories, and gathers them all in one place, while in vanilla Denote, via dired-mode, one is able to see all subdirectories within the denote-directory and also be able to enter the subdirectory and see only those notes contained in the subdirectory.
