Auto Index

This plugin automatically generates and maintains index notes for specified folders, listing files and subfolders recursively. It essentially brings the functionality of an "auto-index" script directly into Obsidian as a native plugin.

🎯 Features

• Recursive Indexing: Automatically scans watched folders and builds a tree structure of content.
• Auto-Updates: Updates index files automatically at a configured interval (default: 3 seconds).
• Smart Formatting:
  • Lists subfolders with customizable emojis and bold text.

⚙️ Settings

You can configure the following in Settings > Auto Index:

• Watched Folders: A list of folder paths to monitor (one per line).
  • Example:

    Inbox
    Archive
    Projects
    Resources/Books
    

• Update Interval: How often (in seconds) the plugin checks for changes.
• Folder Emoji: Emoji or text to display before folder names (e.g., 📂).
• Bold Folder Names: Toggle to display folder names in bold.
