Templater Obsidian Plugin

Templater is a template language that lets you insert variables and functions results into your Obsidian notes. It will also let you execute JavaScript code manipulating those variables and functions.

Demonstration

Documentation

Check out the complete documentation to start using Templater.

Warning

Templater allows you to execute arbitrary JavaScript code and system commands.

It can be dangerous to execute arbitrary JavaScript code or system commands from untrusted sources. Only run code / commands that you understand, from trusted sources.

Because Obsidian is an offline application, it can be dangerous only if you copy-paste and blindly use a code snippet / command / template from an untrusted source.

Template Showcase ? Questions ? Ideas ? Help ?

Go to the discussion tab to ask and find this kind of things.

Don't be shy and share your templates created using Templater in the Template Showcase category. Use gists to share the template file. I'm curious of what the community has come up with, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
