org and cite links in org-roam-ui

Open deb75 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Hello,

In the org-roam-ui side bar, I noticed that org links, like pdf:/path/to/pdf, are not clickable although they work in the emacs org file.

Also, on the graph, if I try to click on a cite node, the side bar opens but with an html error text.

Is it normal ?

Should it be possible that pdf files be displayed in the web browser ?

Regards

Also, I use to print my bibliography at end of document with \printbibliography or [[printbibliography:]].

It seems also not be interpreted by sidebar preview of org-roam-ui althoug the graph does show all citation links.

pdf: links seems to be non-standard and is provided by org-pdftools. (Do you use org-pdftools?)

Normal links should parse pdf links already (e.g., [[pdf:blah]]). To parse standalone pdf: links, "pdf" must be added to linkTypes option.

This can either be hardcoded:

import { defaultOptions } from 'uniorg-parse/lib/parse-options';

  .use(uniorgParse, { linkTypes: [...defaultOptions.linkTypes, 'pdf'] })

or might use a value of (org-link-types) (slightly preferred).

This still leaves the job of making links “openable.” org-pdftools-open-pdftools and current org-roam-ui support for cite links can be used for inspiration.

Hi,

Cite links (org-ref) cite:&mycitation and (org) file links file:myfile still do not work. When I hover with the mouse on links a forbidden icon is diplayed.

I have no particular skills in how org-roam-ui works butn should it be possible that the cite links in the org file be replaced by the appropriate html file links when exporting the org file for org-roam-ui ?

This would solve the issue at least for cite links.

As for org file links, maybe the error is that it seems only the description is exported. As for me, a link like file:myfile refers to a file in the same dir as the org file but, org-roam-ui is probably unaware of this file location (?)
