Overview of Used Tags

Open norsemangrey opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

I just started using this and it just what I need. Great job!!

It might be useful to somewhere (perhaps related to the search area) provide a list of tags found in the notes so that the user can click on a desired tag and get a list of the notes where that tag is used.

@norsemanGrey - I did start to develop this but put it on hold as I ran into a problem. As it stands, the logic I use to extract tags from a note will consider hashtags anywhere in the content (including code blocks). What I found when looking at my own notes is that I really need to ignore anything in a code block as it picks up code comments e.g. #TODO and SQL Server temp tables e.g. #Users.

The API already supports retrieving a list of indexed tags (see /api/tags) so once I solve the codeblock issue it should be fairly simple to implement.

With this, Maybe a way to make collections, Similar to bookstack. The Collections could be auto generated off the tags. So if you have notes with #windows10 it will all go to a collection.

Additional idea: tag completion in the search field
