  • Overview

  • Updates3

An Obsidian plugin to dynamically replace content of a note using user defined Regular Expressions.

Use Cases

The main goal of this plugin is to enable users to hide ugly, verbose metadata used by other plugins that clutters your notes.

For example, Obsidian to Anki utilizes curly braces to signify a line of text that should create a cloze note in Anki. This plugin can enable the user to conceal the curly braces in their notes.

Showcase

Regex used in example

When writing custom regex, the capture groups will be concealed in your notes.

Discussions

Overtime I hope we can amass a collection of user created Regex for various use cases.

If you have a Regex you would like to share, I encourage you to leave a comment on the List of Community Made Regex discussion.
