Description

The Open in Marked plugin sends the current note or the whole vault to Marked 3 on macOS for a live Markdown preview outside the editor. It can open the active note directly, or keep Marked pointed at the most recently changed file in the vault, which makes it useful if you want a separate reading view while writing. The plugin works through Marked's custom URL handler and the macOS open command, so the setup stays simple but it is tied to desktop use. It also reads absolute file paths from your vault so Marked can load the right file.

Open in Marked

Open the current note, or monitor the current vault, in Marked 3.

Requirements

  • macOS
  • Marked 3 installed
  • Desktop Obsidian (isDesktopOnly)

How to use

Use the commands via the Command Palette (cmd+p, then search for "Marked"), click the ribbon icon, or assign hotkeys in Obsidian's hotkey preferences.

How it works

The plugin reads the absolute path of the active note or vault on disk, then asks macOS to open Marked 3 via its x-marked-3:// URL handler (open). Marked shows changes with about a 2s delay.

If you use Open vault in Marked, the Marked preview follows the most recently modified file in your vault. To switch the preview to another note, make an edit (hitting Space anywhere in the note is enough).

Disclosures

  • Requires Marked 3, a separate paid macOS app.
  • Uses Node.js APIs on desktop only to run open with a Marked URL.
  • Reads absolute filesystem paths for files inside your vault so Marked can open them.

Installing from Community Plugins

Search Community Plugins for "Open in Marked" and install it.

Manually installing the plugin

  1. Download main.js and manifest.json from the latest release.
  2. Create VaultFolder/.obsidian/plugins/open-in-marked/.
  3. Copy both files into that folder and enable the plugin in Obsidian settings.
