- the fileExplorer patchability check made smarter and version-dependent
- the plugin-integration-point support required by Obsidian 1.7.2 has been already incorporated in the plugin earlier on, for 1.6.0 Obsidian release
Remains to do:
- polish the code to remove duplication in main.js
- full testing under 1.6.0
- regression tests under latest 1.5.x (the code is backward compatible)
- switched code to use the DI approach - the handle to `app` is handed over to the Plugin at initializaion. Keep in and supply down the execution chain, as needed
Obsidian introduced breaking changes around File Explorer JS structure which prevented this custom-sort plugin from working.
- fix backward compatible with versions earlier that 1.5.4
- version bump before release
- `aaa-z` and `a-zzz` sort orders (uppercase first, alphanumeric order and lowercase first, alphanumeric)
- `vsc-unicode` sort order, which is equivalent to what VS Code refers to as 'unicode' sorting (which name is arbitrary and confusing, yet familar to VS Code users)
- the last-resort default fallback sorting method (which was alphabetical) is extended to give preference to files. In other words, if all the specified sorting levels don't sort two items, the file goes first (if the other item is a folder)
- added explicit syntax to specify `files-first` or `folders-first`
- naive implementation, the escape lexeme is \\DOT (problematic long term because of overlaps)
- naive implementation, the escape is transformed to simple-regexp (technically this is not needed at all)
- sorting by bookmarks, item w/o bookmark pushed to the bottom in both: asc and desc orders
- sorting by metadata, item w/o metadata pushed to the bottom in both, asc and desc orders
- sorting by creation or modification date, advanced mode: empty folders (or folders having only folder children) are pushed to the bottom, regardless of asc or desc order
* #74 - Integration with Bookmarks core plugin and support for indirect drag & drop arrangement
- added new plugin setting to enable auto-integration with bookmarks
- full integration with standard sorting at folder level and at sorting group level
- refined support for implicit sorting for bookmarks plugin integration
- documentation update (partial, sketchy)
- context menu for 'bookmark this' and 'bookmark+siblings' for sorting
- order of bookmarked siblings reflects the current sorting in File Explorer, whatever it is (!!!)
- handler for 'changed' event of the vault to reflect files/folders locations change in the bookmarks automatically, whenever applicable
- adjusted behavior of by-bookmark-comparator to adhere to the multi-level sorting support implemented in #89 and merged recently to this branch. Basically, each comparator is responsible only for its own comparison and should no fallback into other default comparisons - instead it should return 0, which indicates item which are equal from the perspective of the comparator
- adjusted bookmarks integration to the merged from master multi-level sorting support and its implications
- fix suggested by github code check
- advanced performance optimizations: bookmarks cache finetuning, switching to Obsidian sort code if the implicit bookmark-integration sorting spec is in effect for a folder and there are no bookmarked items in the folder
- update of treatment of whitespace in parent path extraction: spaces allowed as leading/trailing in path elements
- increased coverage of the new functionality with unit tests
- basic manual tests done
- next step: real-life usage tests
- full runtime processor extension plus necessary syntax adjustments
- backward compatibility with semi-two-levels
- extended meaning of sorting: lexeme
- extended and more fine-grained error messages for sorting order specifications
