Tencent Docs Publisher

English | 简体中文

Publish Obsidian Markdown notes and linked note trees to Tencent Docs (Smart Documents).

Network & Third-Party Account Disclosures

• Third-Party Account: This plugin requires a Tencent Docs account. You need to obtain an authorization Token from the Tencent Docs Open Platform.
• Network Access: HTTPS requests are sent exclusively to the official Tencent Docs OpenAPI endpoint (https://docs.qq.com/openapi/mcp) when triggered manually by the user (e.g., clicking "Test Connection", "Fetch Page Tree", or "Start Publishing"). There is no background synchronization or automatic requests during normal note editing.
• Credential Storage: Your Token is stored securely in Obsidian's credential store and is never written into note files, data.json, or logs.

Prerequisites

1. Get Tencent Docs Token: Visit the Tencent Docs Authorization Page, log in, and copy your Token.
2. Prepare Target Document: If publishing a note tree with multiple notes, manually create the corresponding sub-pages in the Tencent Docs web interface beforehand (the API currently does not support creating sub-pages programmatically).

2. New Project Modal

3. Page Binding Modal

• Refresh Remote Tree: Refreshes the list of sub-pages from Tencent Docs.
• Save Bindings: Persists mapping configuration.

4. Preview & Pre-publish Modal

• Status Indicators:
  • changed: Local note was modified; publishing will overwrite remote content.
  • unchanged: Content is identical; publishing will skip this page.
  • conflict: Remote page has external edits; requires confirmation before overwriting.
  • unbound: Note is not mapped to any remote sub-page.
  • error: Contains errors (e.g. missing images) that must be resolved.
• Allow Overwriting N Modified Pages: Confirms overwriting remote changes.
• Start Publishing: Executes document content update and image uploads.

5. Sidebar Project View

• Project List: Displays root path, mapped page counts, publishing status, and shortcuts for publishing, binding, opening, and removing projects.
• Recent Runs: Shows past execution steps, durations, and results.

Notes & Boundaries

1. Manual Execution: Synchronization runs only when you click "Publish". There is no automatic background sync or file watcher.
2. Sub-page Creation: Due to Tencent Docs API limits, sub-pages cannot be created programmatically. Create sub-pages in Tencent Docs web app first, then refresh bindings in the plugin.
3. Content Overwrite: Publishing replaces remote page content based on local Markdown. Remote changes will trigger a conflict warning.
4. Format Support:
   • Supports headings, bold, italics, lists, tables, code blocks, and blockquotes.
   • Automatically uploads local and web images (including width syntax like ![[image.png|400]]).
   • Converts internal wiki-links ([[Note]]) within the project into native Tencent Docs mentions.
   • Unsupported complex markup falls back to plain text or code blocks.
5. Data Safety: Removing a project locally only deletes the plugin's local configuration; it never deletes any files from Tencent Docs.
