Usecase suggestion: markdown folder import

Open joepio opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I was discussing an interesting usecase with @AlexMikhalev about managing personal knowledge, currently stored in markdown files in a system similar to an Obsidian + Github workflow

Wishes:

  • Import once (using CLI)
  • Maintain relative links in markdown files
  • Track incoming / outgoing links (including non atomic resources)
  • Export to folders + files structure
  • Import media files #72
  • Track links to media objects

Question for discussion: import from git (i.e. github/gitlab) are better than import from filesystem = same level of abstraction.

I recognize the convenience of using Github/Gitlab APIs, but please don't call those "git".

Supporting "import from git" is something semantically different from "import from $SERVICE API".

Since github, gitlab and others should implement the git SSH protocol, I think this could suffice. It is secure and standardized.

for a read-only "dump" of a git repository I agree - not only the git+ssh protocol but also http and https could be supported.
