Joplin Auto Card Link Plugin
This is my first Joplin plugin. I have created it with the intention of learning how to create plugins for Joplin, and I hope it can be useful for others as well. The development has been done using the Joplin Plugin Generator and the help of Cline.
The plugin does the same as the "Auto Card Link plugin" for Obsidian, which I have been using for a while and found it very useful.
Usage:
By Pressing Ctrl + Shift + L (or Cmd + Shift + L on Mac) while the cursor is on a note, the plugin will
automatically fetch the metadata from a url which is in the clipboard and create a card link in the note. The card link will include the title, description, and image of the webpage.
Here is a screenshot of the plugin in action:
The source looks like this:
And the result looks like this:
This Plugin is still in development, and I am open to any suggestions or feedback. If you have any ideas on how to improve the plugin, please feel free to share them with me.
