The DevOps Companion plugin brings context awareness for DevOps workflows directly into your workspace by scanning, parsing, and monitoring common configuration files like Dockerfiles, YAML, and Terraform. You can specify a folder for it to watch, and the plugin will keep an eye on changes, even supporting manual scans for immediate feedback. It works with files not natively handled by the platform and lays groundwork for future features like automated markdown documentation.
This is the first development release of Obsidian DevOps Companion — a plugin designed to help developers and DevOps engineers bridge the gap between infrastructure as code and living documentation in Obsidian.
✨ Features
Designate a folder in your vault to scan and track .yml, .yaml, and .tf files.
Automatic change detection: when a supported file is modified, the plugin triggers a parser and logs the action.
Manual file scanning via command palette to parse and extract structure.
Docker & Terraform parsing: extract useful metadata and prepare for documentation.
Plugin settings UI to configure the folder to scan and future options.
🔧 How it works
Go to plugin settings and set the folder that contains your DevOps files.
Files in this folder (.yml, .yaml, .tf) are parsed automatically on change.
Parsed data will later be transformed into structured Markdown (WIP).
⚠️ Note
This plugin is still in active development and not production-ready.
Expect bugs, incomplete features, and exciting things to come!
