Provide autocomplete for property names & values used in selected property

[technohiker]

I'm not actively developing Obsidian plugins at the moment, so I won't be working on this anytime soon.

This may be possible? It would have to be done by locating where Obsidian stores information on all of it's properties,(the vault's data.json or types.json file could be used?) pass them into the Svelte forms and have it listen for keys that match the property name/value. More research would need to be done on where to find that information, as I don't exactly know where it's stored and how to access it.

Some links from a very quick search:

Or maybe utillizing dataview would be easier, idk:

This is probably way too littte, but hopefully better than nothing

It seems that Completr provides autocompletion of property names using obsidian api
