I made a chrome extension that creates/copies a fabric command for you

[stuboo]

I found that I was often using the extract_wisdom pattern and it occurred to me that I could improve my workflow by creating a simple Chrome extension.

This extension is designed to simplify the process of capturing YouTube video URLs and preparing them for use with Fabric. I use it to create obsidian notes using the extract_wisdom pattern. Just install the extension, navigate to a YouTube video, and click the icon. The extension will ask you for a filename and confirm when the fabric command has been copied to your clipboard.

Example:
yt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABK00e2XdPo --transcript | fabric --pattern extract_wisdom | save multimodal_rag_ABK00e2XdPo -s -n

Features:

• Capture YouTube URLs: Automatically captures the URL of the YouTube video you're watching.
• Filename Input: Provides a user-friendly modal to enter a custom filename.
• Formatted Command: Copies a formatted command to the clipboard, ready for use with Fabric.
• Feedback Message: Displays the copied text for confirmation.
• Close Button: Easily close the modal after copying the URL.

How It Works:

1. Visit a YouTube video URL: For example, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABK00e2XdPo&t=21s.

2. Click the ytFabric extension button: A modal will appear requesting a filename.

3. Enter a filename: For instance, enter my_video.

4. Submit the filename: Click the "Submit" button.

5. Clipboard content: The clipboard will now contain the following text:

   yt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABK00e2XdPo --transcript | fabric --pattern extract_wisdom | save my_video_ABK00e2XdPo -s -n

6. Feedback: A message showing the copied text will be displayed in the modal.

7. Close the modal: Click the "Close" button to manually close the modal.

Installation:

1. Clone the repository or download the ZIP file from GitHub and extract it.
2. Open Chrome and navigate to chrome://extensions/.
3. Enable "Developer mode" in the top right corner.
4. Click "Load unpacked" and select the directory where you have the extension files.

I hope you find this extension as useful as I do!

@stuboo, great job. Just one suggestion: the recently released official Obsidian Web Clipper (https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-clipper) has a feature (still not released (obsidianmd/obsidian-clipper#86 (comment)) to integrate LLMs in the flow. Considering that Obsidian Web Clipper is open source and that you have done excellent work with your Chrome extension, can you take a look and evaluate some convergence of the two projects or some contribution to the official Obsidian Web Clipper? (I'm just a user with no affiliation, but integrating Fabric patterns in the official Obsidian Web Clipper for any clipping would be an incredibly useful achievement ...). Thanks anyway for your extension.
