[Feature request] Allow parsing of ISO-8601 datetime format in frontmatter
Hello there! Thank you for creating such an awesome Obsidian plugin. It makes Quantified Self so much easier. However, I'm having the following issue.
I'm trying to track sleep
, wake_up
and the calculated sleep_hours
. Example of frontmatter from daily note:
---
created: 2022-05-23
sleep: 2022-05-21T23:00:00+00:00
wake_up: 2022-05-22T07:00:00+00:00
sleep_hours: 8
---
Minimal example that doesn't work:
```tracker
searchType: frontmatter
searchTarget: wake_up
datasetName: Wake Up
line:
title: "Sleep Habits"
yAxisLabel: "Time (24h)"
```
I get the No valid Y value found in notes
error. The reason for ISO-8601 date format is because I reply on = (this.wake_up - this.sleep).hours
inline dataviewjs to calculate sleep_hours
.
The following format with just the time works:
sleep: 23:00
wake_up: 07:00
But it means that my data won't comply with ISO-8601 (hence not very portable). Most importantly, without the date value, the calculated value is sometimes wrong.
I looked into the doc and the only mentioned of iso is ISO-8601 Date Format, but it's about setting the startDate
and endDate
in iso-8601.
Is it possible to add more input parameters, e.g., yAxisDateFormat
and yAxisDisplayedFormat
like the following:
```tracker
searchType: frontmatter
searchTarget: wake_up
datasetName: Wake Up
line:
title: "Sleep Habits"
yAxisLabel: "Time (24h)"
yAxisDateFormat: iso-8601
yAxisDisplayedFormat: "HH:mm:ss"
```
So that the Y-axis contains only the time but not the whole iso-8601?
Any help is much appreciated. Thank you again!
