This plugin can create input fields inside your notes and bind them to metadata fields.

I am currently working on new docs for this plugin. https://mprojectscode.github.io/obsidian-meta-bind-plugin-docs

To create an input field you have to write an inline code block or normal code block starting with INPUT. Then in square brackets the type of input field, in round brackets arguments and finally behind a colon the metadata field to bind to.

• INPUT[toggle] will create an unbound toggle
• INPUT[slider:rating] will create a slider bound to the metadata field rating of this note
• INPUT[text:task#completedOn] will create a text input bound to the metadata field completedOn of the note with the name task

The plugin also allows further customization with arguments. So the complete syntax looks like this:

INPUT[input_type(argument_name(argument_value), argument_name_2, ...):file_name_or_path#metadata_field]

For more examples see the exampleVault folder.

• slider a slider from 0 to 100 (custom ranges can be set using minValue and maxValue, see below)
• toggle a toggle element
• text a text field
• text_area a bigger text field
• select a select input field, only for code blocks
• multi_select a multi-select input field, only for code blocks
• date a date input field

• class(class_name) adds a css class to the input field
• addLabels only for slider, adds labels for the min and max values
• minValue(value) only for slider, sets the min value
• maxValue(value) only for slider, sets the max value
• option(value) only for (multi-)selects, adds an option to the select
• title(value) only for (multi-)selects, adds a title to the select input

You must manually download the zip archive from the latest release here on GitHub.
After downloading, extract the archive into the .obsidian/plugins folder in your vault.

The folder structure should look like this:

[path to your vault]  
|_ .obsidian  
   |_ plugins  
      |_ obsidian-meta-bind-plugin  
         |_ main.js  
         |_ manifest.json  
         |_ styles.css  

You are more than welcome to open an issue on GitHub.

This is intentional. To reduce the load on your hard drive the plugin ony syncs about 5 times a second. There is a setting to change the sync interval, but I don't recommend changing it.

Thank you for wanting to contribute to this project.
