Open markdown files on device

[Destroyer]

Hi, I've tried out your app and I like it. I've been using neutriNote until now and to be able to give it a proper shot, I'd need to be able to open markdown files I already have on my device. Any plans for adding that, or some sort of import feature? Thank you :)

Import/Export functionality will be added in a future release. Until then, you can select an external data directory via Settings -> Data Directory and then copy your markdown files into its notes subdirectory using any file manager app.

Thanks @redsolver - take your time! 👍 My thoughts on this would be: We could realize this by registering Noteless as an app handler to open .md files with the app being started by simply clicking on a respective file in a file manager. If Noteless is started, it checks whether the chosen file is already in the Noteless data directory.

• If not, it asks for importing it or just to edit it.
• If yes, it just opens the file.

Is not possible https://github.com/redsolver/noteless/issues/63

Would be better to select a folder and read all the .md files and allow open .md files independently

I just published Version 1.4.6 (https://github.com/redsolver/noteless/releases/tag/v1.4.6) which contains a new experimental "Dendron" mode which can be enabled in the settings. This mode improves compatibility with other Markdown-based note-taking tools which save all Markdown files directly in one root folder together with attachments (images, ...) and have filenames which are different from the Markdown title. With this mode you can basically just select a folder in the settings and Noteless then loads all Markdown files in that folder.
