Daily Overview

A right-side panel plugin that surfaces today's tasks and live project progress — read directly from your Markdown notes, with no Dataview index wait.

Why another task board? Diary / note templates often embed a dataviewjs dashboard in the note body. Every time you open the note, you wait for Dataview to build its index, run a full scan, and render asynchronously. Daily Overview moves that logic into a native plugin view: it reads your Markdown with the Obsidian API, opens instantly, and stays in the right sidebar as a switchable tab.

Features

• Task board (scans the Diary folder)
  • 🎯 Due today — incomplete tasks whose due is today. Checkable in place.
  • 🔴 Overdue — incomplete tasks whose due is before today. Checkable in place.
  • ✅ Done today — completed tasks whose [done::] date is today.
  • 📅 Upcoming — incomplete tasks within 0 < due − today ≤ N, with a dropdown to switch the window (7 / 14 / 30 / 90 days).
• Project board (scans the Project folder) — groups tasks by project file, shows overdue / pending counts, collapsible; fully-completed projects are auto-hidden.
• Milestones — one or more name + start date badges on the header (red), e.g. a running streak. Day 1 counts on the start date.
• Write-back — checking a task edits the source line and appends [done:: today]; unchecking removes it. The panel refreshes automatically.
• Click to jump — click any task row to open its source note; the 📎 link jumps to the linked note.
• Configurable — diary folder, project folder, future window, milestones, panel title, skip-archived toggle — all in settings, no hard-coded paths.
• Multi-resolution — adapts from narrow sidebars to wide layouts; designed for desktop and mobile (HarmonyOS / Android) Obsidian.

Install

Option A — Manual

1. Download manifest.json, main.js, styles.css from the latest release.
2. Put them in <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/today-board/.
3. In Obsidian: Settings → Community plugins → enable "Daily Overview".
4. Click the gauge icon in the left ribbon (or run the command "Daily Overview: Open") — the panel appears in the right sidebar.

Option B — Obsidian Community Store

Once accepted into the Obsidian community store, install it directly from Settings → Community plugins → Browse → search "Daily Overview". The store fetches the files from the GitHub release.

This plugin reads and writes your Markdown task lines directly (no external network, no database).

Task syntax

Tasks use the Dataview inline due field and an auto-written done field — fully compatible with your existing notes:

- [ ] Write quarterly report [due:: 2026-09-15]
- [x] Finished the spec [done:: 2026-09-10]
- [ ] Follow up on [[Project A]] progress [due:: 2026-09-12]

• due uses [due:: YYYY-MM-DD] — exactly your current convention.
• Checking a task auto-writes [done:: YYYY-MM-DD] (today) so Done today can be counted precisely.
• Only tasks checked from now on record a done date; historically-checked tasks without done are not counted as "Done today".

Settings

All settings live under Settings → Daily Overview. Each item shows a short Chinese note below its English label.

Development / Build

This plugin is a single-file build with no bundler — main.js uses require('obsidian') directly.

# Syntax check
node --check main.js

To release, tag a GitHub release and attach manifest.json, main.js, styles.css; the Obsidian community store (and manual installers) pulls the plugin from that release.

Publishing checklist

• manifest.json — id, name, version, minAppVersion, description (no "Obsidian" in the description), author, authorUrl, isDesktopOnly.
• versions.json — maps each plugin version to the minimum app version.
• README.md — English primary (this file) + Chinese supplementary below.
• LICENSE — MIT (update the copyright holder if needed).
• Tag a GitHub release and attach manifest.json, main.js, styles.css.
• authorUrl in manifest.json is already set to the real GitHub profile (https://github.com/XiaoyiHR).

中文说明

本插件把你日记模板里「今日看板」的逻辑搬出笔记正文，改为一个右侧常驻的原生面板：直接读 Markdown，不依赖 Dataview 索引，打开即秒开。

功能

• 任务跟进（扫描「日记文件夹」）：🎯 今日到期、🔴 已逾期、✅ 今日已办、📅 未来 N 天（下拉切换 7/14/30/90 天）。
• 项目跟进（扫描「项目文件夹」）：按项目文件分组，显示逾期 / 待处理数量，可折叠；全部完成的项目自动隐藏。
• 里程碑：一个或多个「名称 + 起始日期」，开始当天算第 1 天，顶部以红色徽标展示。
• 写回：勾选任务即改源文件行并追加 [done:: 今天]；取消则移除。面板自动刷新。
• 点击跳转：点任务行跳到源笔记；📎 链接跳到关联笔记。
• 可配置：日记/项目文件夹、未来窗口、里程碑、面板标题、跳过归档，均在设置项，无硬编码路径。
• 多分辨率：从窄侧栏到宽布局自适应，桌面与移动端（鸿蒙/安卓）均可用。

安装

1. 把 manifest.json、main.js、styles.css 放进 <仓库>/.obsidian/plugins/today-board/。
2. Obsidian 设置 → 社区插件 → 启用「Daily Overview」。
3. 点左侧栏仪表盘图标（或命令「Daily Overview: Open」）打开右侧面板。

任务语法

沿用你现在的写法：[due:: YYYY-MM-DD] 表示到期；勾选后自动写回 [done:: YYYY-MM-DD] 用于统计「今日已办」。

设置项（英文标签 + 中文说明）

• Diary folder：任务跟进扫描的文件夹。
• Project folder：项目跟进扫描的文件夹。
• Default future window (days)：未来任务的默认统计周期。
• Milestones (multiple)：里程碑（名称 + 起始日期），可多个、可增删。
• Skip archived / paused projects：跳过含 Archive- / Paused- 前缀的项目。
• Panel title：面板顶部标题文案。

说明：本插件仅读取并写回你自己的 Markdown 任务行，不联网、不建数据库，多端同步与你的笔记一致。
