#journal#note-management#daily-tracking

The Journalyst plugin is designed to help users track their daily journaling in Obsidian by creating and managing daily entries. It organizes each journal entry as a markdown file with a filename based on the date, such as YYYY-MM-DD.md. Users can designate a folder as their journal folder, and any subfolders will automatically be used to create new journals. The plugin provides a simple interface for adding new entries and keeping track of completed entries each day. It also supports multiple journals, allowing users to separate personal, work, or sleep tracking journals. This plugin makes daily journaling easier and more organized within Obsidian.

Journalyst

Journalyst is an Obsidian plugin that helps keep track of your daily journaling. It provides a simple interface to create and manage daily journal entries. To use it, simply designate a folder in your vault as your journal folder, and any folders within that folder will be used to create a Journal.

Each journal entry is a markdown file with a filename in the format YYYY-MM-DD.md. The plugin provides a simple interface to create new entries, as well as see which days you completed a journal entry for each given Journal for the current month.

This allows for easy tracking of your daily journaling, and provides a simple way to create new entries for each day. You could for example have a journal for your personal life, and another for your work life, another for sleep tracking and so on.

Please feel free to provide feedback and feature requests! I'm happy to help and improve the plugin as it is still in its early stages.

Planned Features

  • Add commands to create a new journal entry for the current day for a given Journal
  • Allow the use of Templates for journal entries.
  • Allow changing the format of the journal entry filenames
