Calendar for Daily Notes

Calendar for Daily Notes

Calendar for daily notes with grouped lists view, created-on-day notes and attachments, color tags, custom titles, and optional gemma3 title generation.

Features / What’s different:

• List view - a new collapsible panel showing daily notes in a hierarchical tree with:

  • 6 grouping presets: Year, Year→Month, Year→Month Name, Year→Month #-Name, Year→Quarter, Year→Week
  • Sorting: Newest→Oldest or Oldest→Newest
  • Min word filter: Hide daily notes below a word count threshold
  • Created-on-day items: Shows notes and attachments created on each day (by file creation time), even without a daily note
  • Count badges: Optional display of daily note counts on group headers

• Custom Titles for Daily Notes

  • Manually add/edit a custom title suffix per day (stored in plugin data, not file name)
  • Click the pencil icon on any day row to edit inline

• Color Tags

  • Right-click any day row or file to assign one of 8 colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, gray)
  • Colors display as a subtle background highlight

• Adds an optional title generation via gemma3:4b

  • When enabled, each daily note row in List view shows a small refresh icon to generate/update the title. Gnerates 3 keywords + 1-sentence description from note content
  • Uses your local Ollama server (default: http://127.0.0.1:11434)
  • Cached by file mtime (regenerates only when content changes)
  • Generated titles are stored in plugin data (it does not rename files)

• UI Enhancements

  • Zoom controls: Separate zoom sliders for calendar (default 130%) and list view (default 95%)
  • Remember view state: Optional persistence of displayed month, list open/closed state, and expanded groups across restarts
  • Responsive scaling: Calendar auto-scales in narrow sidebars

Network & privacy

• Title generation is optional, and sends note text only to your local Ollama server (http://127.0.0.1:11434 by default).
• The plugin itself only talks to that local endpoint. When you click Pull (or generate titles without the model present), your Ollama server will download gemma3:4b from its configured registry (internet) just like ollama pull gemma3:4b on the CLI.
• Disable title generation in settings to avoid any Ollama requests.
• Generated titles are cached per file mtime; content isn’t re-sent unless the note changes.
