Sync behaviour
Hi @huseyz ! I didn't found a Wiki for that project therefore I post my thoughts about that wonderful plugin here in order to get your point of view. First of all, as you already saw in my MR about the annotations, I have a specific workflow in mind in order to process information personally. I have set up a Wallabag server and this acts as my kitchen sink for reading and highlighting/annotate informations in my daily life. After that I want to process these informations/highlights into my obisidan vault as a long-living note. My requirements look more or less like:
- Sync regularly the annotations into my vault with a link to my wallabag article (this is already possible today)
- Remove a note when I don't need the annotation/article anymore. This would be possible today too, as your plugin keeps an index of synced articles.
- Sometimes it happens that I didn't process/read the article yet. Unfortunately these articles are maybe already synced and will stay synced forever.
- Sometimes it happens that I added additonal annotations (because maybe I re-read that article). These will be not re-synced either.
Thinking about these (personal) requirements maybe it makes sense to change a bit the sync behaviour. What I have in mind is: always re-sync and overwrite the current wallabag note except when the note was synced before and is now deleted and when the note contains a special marker tag which blocks rewriting for the future.
What do you think about that?
Things, I didn't consider here: different workflows/styles with PDF annotations maybe. I see that the plugin also supports this and I didn't used it yet so maybe my plan above is flawed in this regard.
