A kanban board view for Bases. The board is driven entirely by Bases primitives.
How Bases maps to kanban
| Bases primitive | Kanban concept | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Filter | Board | Which notes appear on the board |
| Group by | Columns | One column per distinct group-by value |
| Sort | Card order | Order of cards within each column |
| Properties | Card content | Fields shown on each card |
Usage
- Create or open a
.basefile - Configure Filter, Group by, Sort, and Properties using the standard Bases toolbar
- Switch to the Kanban view — the board reflects your configuration immediately
- Drag cards between columns to update the group-by property; click cards to open notes
Installation
As soon the plugin is merged, you can install using the plugin manager. For now, place the files under .obsidian/plugins/bases-kanban
Example
An example on how I setup my frontmatter:
---
project: infrastructure
status: open
summary:
tags:
- enhancement
- documentation
---
With Bases configured to filter on where project is infrastructure, group by status, Z -> A, sort by created time New to old, and properties active summary and tags — you get a board with columns like Backlog, In Progress, and Done.
