This is a plugin for Obsidian that will insert random names into a document. There's a lot of categories of names (both people and items). We use https://github.com/xaroth8088/random-names internally to get the names, and their full list has the complete set.

1. Clone this repo.
2. Make sure your NodeJS is at least v16 (node --version).
3. ./pnpm i to install dependencies.
4. ./pnpm dev to start compilation in watch mode.

Manually installing the plugin

1. Run ./pnpm build
2. Copy over main.js and manifest.json to your vault VaultFolder/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-random-names/.
