can you please elaborate what such a plugin should provide to you? this is a obsidian plugin. not a vscode plugin.

Perhaps look at markdown db and the API they provide? Probably better to use that to build a vs code plugin as opposed to repurposing this one. Though exporting the core parsing and query engine is an interesting idea discussed in some other issue.

  • @GottZ is this repo helpful https://github.com/sn3akiwhizper-vscode/dataview-vscode?
  • @AB1908 I tried markdown db but it is very slow

hm. that repo looks dead to me. no activity at all. almost like my own repos.

the thing is, to have dataview functionality, you would essentially have to re-create core features of obsidian itself. especially the indexing.

This would be great to have. Data view is so useful I feel like it shouldn’t constrain us to obsidian .

I had heard a rumor that there was such a thing and it would be greatly useful, but that search unfortunately lead me here. I manage a shared vault in which I make heavy use of Dataview and some of the friends accessing it do not use Obsidian but do use VScode. They're missing out on a ton because of it, but it's not reasonable for me to constrain what they use to access the information stored in said vault. Unfortunately my reliance on Dataview has the potential to becoming a hurdle in our project, and I'd prefer to continue using it and the power it unlocks.

Though I do think this might be effectively a duplicate of: https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview/issues/92
