Publish Markdown notes from Obsidian to HakiSend.
HakiSend Publisher connects an Obsidian vault to a HakiSend Site so you can write locally, save drafts, schedule Posts, and publish without copying Markdown into a browser editor.
Requirements
- Obsidian 1.11.4 or later.
- A HakiSend account.
- Access to at least one HakiSend Site.
- An internet connection for HakiSend operations.
Account and network access
HakiSend Publisher requires a HakiSend account for publishing features.
When you connect, save, upload media, schedule, publish, or disconnect, the plugin communicates with the HakiSend API over the network.
Your Markdown source remains in your Obsidian vault. Publishing operations send the content and metadata required for the requested HakiSend operation.
Commands
Open the Obsidian Command Palette and search for HakiSend.
The authoring commands are:
- HakiSend: New Post
- HakiSend: Edit Post Properties
- HakiSend: Show Local Status
- HakiSend: Save Changes
- HakiSend: Schedule
- HakiSend: Publish Now
Connection controls are available in the HakiSend Publisher settings.
New Post
HakiSend: New Post creates a local Markdown draft before anything is sent to HakiSend.
A new Post begins with Properties similar to:
---
title: My Post
status: draft
category: business
external_id: 00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000000
---
The UUID above is only an example.
The real external_id is generated once and provides the stable identity between the Obsidian note and its HakiSend Post.
Renaming the file, moving it to another folder, or changing its title does not require a new external_id.
Edit Post Properties
HakiSend: Edit Post Properties manages:
- title
- slug
- Category
- Tags
- excerpt
It does not regenerate external_id.
Categories
The selected HakiSend Category is stored explicitly in the note Properties.
Moving the Markdown file to another folder therefore does not silently change its HakiSend Category.
Tags
Tags are synchronized to HakiSend when the Post is saved.
HakiSend may create Tags required by the Post during the Save workflow.
Site language
The current Post publishing workflow uses the default locale configured for the selected HakiSend Site.
Translation publishing is not currently exposed through HakiSend Publisher.
Save Changes
HakiSend: Save Changes creates or updates the current Post in HakiSend.
Saving does not create a new Site publication.
A draft may be saved even when its Markdown body is still empty.
Schedule
HakiSend: Schedule saves the Post and then performs the HakiSend publication operation required for the schedule.
Local scheduling Properties are committed only after the server operation succeeds.
Publish Now
HakiSend: Publish Now saves the current Post and publishes the resulting Site state.
Local publishing Properties are committed only after the publication succeeds.
Publish Now also clears obsolete schedule values that would conflict with an immediate publication.
Images
Supported local Markdown image references can be uploaded through HakiSend Media during the Save workflow.
The published Markdown then references the resulting HakiSend Media asset.
Errors
When an API request fails, the plugin displays the HTTP/API error in Obsidian.
When supplied by HakiSend, the request ID is also displayed so the server-side request can be traced.
Manual installation
Create this directory inside your Obsidian vault:
<Vault>/.obsidian/plugins/hakisend-publisher/
Place these release files inside it:
manifest.json
main.js
styles.css
Restart Obsidian or reload Community plugins, then enable HakiSend Publisher under Settings → Community plugins.
Do not copy another user's data.json or plugin connection state.
Development
Install dependencies:
npm install
Build the production plugin:
npm run build
The production build creates main.js from src/main.ts.
Releases
The plugin version is defined in manifest.json and package.json.
versions.json maps each plugin version to the minimum compatible Obsidian version.
A GitHub release uses the exact version number as its tag, for example:
0.1.0
Release assets are:
manifest.json
main.js
styles.css
