Add support for Obsidian Callouts #632
Description
🚀 The feature, motivation and pitch
As @epwalsh suggested in the discussion, submitting a feature request here for greater visibility.
Motivation
I have been frequently using Obsidian callouts in my notes since I started using Obsidian. It serves as an important highlight tool in my workflow and I enjoy the look. If the plugin could present some kind of interaction when one is implementing a callout, it might provide an even smoother editing experience.
Feature
Add (at least a certain degree of) support for Obsidian callouts.
Here is a simple example of callout syntax:
> [!info] Callout can have a title
> Here's a callout block.
> It supports **Markdown**, [[Internal link|Wikilinks]], and [[Embed files|embeds]]!
Basically what I would like is similar experience as editing a callout in Obsidian. I am no expert but I imagine it would be a hassle and unnecessity to try to reproduce the exact effect of callouts in Neovim. It may very well be sufficient for a smooth editing experience imho if something like the following is achieved:
- When typing something like
> [!info]the line turns into an icon, in similar fashion to say- [x]in checkboxes.
- When I hit enter/return to go to a new line inside a callout block, it would automatically add
>to the beginning of this new line. I presume a simple solution/workaround is some custom comment format options like
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
pattern = "markdown",
callback = function()
vim.opt_local.formatoptions:append("r") -- `<CR>` in insert mode
vim.opt_local.formatoptions:append("o") -- `o` in normal mode
vim.opt_local.comments = {
"b:>",
}
end,
})(code snippet copied from reddit)
