Feature Request: Add {{ domain }} metadata attribute to documents

[mbaltrusitis]

user story.

As an Obsidian user I want to enter the domain of a URL as part of my document metadata so that I may explore the relationships between my notes and which sites I am most often using as reference or source material.

example.

Given the following Jinja template:

### metadata.
{% if url -%}
- Site: [[ {{domain}} ]]
- URL: {{url}}
{% endif -%}

And the following document input:

{
  "title": "How a worm gave the south a bad name",
  "url": "https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/how-a-worm-gave-the-south-a-bad-name/"
}

I want the following output:

### metadata.
- URL: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/how-a-worm-gave-the-south-a-bad-name/
- domain: [[pbs.org]]

supplemental information.

I'm not sure if this applies to Reader only or Readwise in general. In my case, it's an issue with notes created in Reader. Because I can't seem to use an if block with a someString.contains() method or use RegEx to manually extract a domain name, I am stuck with having "reader" as the source, when I actually want the original source domain.

There are also other metadata attributes which are visible in Reader, but not accessible in templates. The other notable one is type.

Thanks for this thread, I've wondered as well. Jinja examples for this Readwise - Obsidian interface are few and far between. Also check the Readwise API docs - https://readwise.io/api_deets

it seems we need to split the source_url into pieces and then parse out the domain. For me, I only want URL's for web addresses (not Kindle books, for example), so you may want to filter with an if. Try something like this - note this is off the cuff... I'm days away from my desktop.

{% if source == "web_clipper" -%} {% set weburl = source_url.split('.') %} {% endif %}

-- split by each period in the url -- concatenate items 1 and 2 (0 is the http stuff) -- tilde is the concatenate function

{% mydomain = weburl[1] ~ weburl[2] %}

Hope this helps.
