Sync different hypothesis groups in different vaults/folders? #22

Closed woodae99 closed 2 years ago

woodae99 commented 2 years ago

Hi, This is not an issue Firstly, thank you so much for this plugin - it's a huge help to myself and my students. When collaborating in hypothesis you can create different groups, say for a research dissertation and another for, perhaps crisis management - I was wondering if it is possible to have those groups sync to specific folders or different vaults in obsidian. for e.g. my critical research students collaborate on a group but use different vaults for other modules and hypothesis groups. Hope this makes sense! Thanks again C

Saving to a different vault is definitely not doable. The quickest way is to bring is group, you can create it as a tag and link them.

You can have the same article in 'private' and a different group with different highlights. I will need to think about it.

At the moment, I brought in the group as a tag against individual highlights.

That's great, thanks - that should help. FYI, I came across this https://jonudell.info/h/facet (https://web.hypothes.is/help/how-do-i-export-my-annotations/) demo export tool that allows a number of permutations by group, tags, users etc. Not sure if you've come across it, or if it's any help with the above question. I don't know how it might be possible, but my non-programmer brain imagines something like: For Vault "a", specify user API token and groups to include = x + y ... For Vault "b", specify uer API token and groups to include = z I need to send you a coffee or 3!

@woodae99 I have added a button that allows you to add/remove groups synced. By default, all groups are selected. Please remember, highlights previously synced will not be removed if you remove a particular group. It only takes comes into effect the next highlights sync. Check it out in v0.1.13

Splitting them into folders, I will think about it next time after I added the frontmatters
