Summary

  • Updates OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH to accept a comma-separated list of vault paths
  • Build output is now mirrored to all specified vaults on each rebuild
  • Updates .env.example with documentation on the multi-vault syntax

Test plan

  • Set OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH="vault1/path,vault2/path" in .env
  • Run turbo dev
  • Verify built files are copied to both vault paths
  • Verify single-path config still works as before
image here's how the "General" looks differently if i set the path to be single again

Closes ENG-1536

Allow OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH to accept a comma-separated list of vault paths,
so devs can build once and mirror output to multiple vaults simultaneously.

ENG-1536 rewrite the build script so Obsidian build can output to more than 1 vault at a time

Operating systems allow commas in file paths, so this approach would break.

We could use an array instead: OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH=["/path/a","/path/b"] and keep single-path support by treating non-JSON values as a single string

@mdroidian made new changes to format with array instead. I tested with these scenarios and the script correctly made the changes to the right vault without affecting the other

  • array with multiple elements: OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH='["/Users/trang.doan/Documents/testVault/.obsidian/plugins/discourse-graphs","/Users/trang.doan/Documents/testVault2/.obsidian/plugins/discourse-graphs"]'
  • array with one vault: '["/Users/trang.doan/Documents/testVault/.obsidian/plugins/discourse-graphs"]'
  • no array, just string: OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH="/Users/trang.doan/Documents/testVault2/.obsidian/plugins/discourse-graphs"

Let's remove that additional line from .env.example before merging

apps/obsidian/.env.example
# OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH="path/to/your/obsidian/vault/.obsidian/plugins/discourse-graph"
# For multiple vaults, use a JSON array:
# OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_PATH='["/vault one/plugins/discourse-graph","/vault two/plugins/discourse-graph"]'
# OBSIDIAN_PLUGIN_REPO_TOKEN=your-github-pat-here No newline at end of file
