Strategist Toolkit — Business Model Canvas for Obsidian

Generate a complete, color-coded Business Model Canvas (BMC) as an Obsidian Canvas file with one click or via the command palette.

Business Model Canvas

Features

  • Command palette action: “Create Business Model Canvas”.
  • Ribbon button in the left sidebar to trigger the generator.
  • Modal prompt for a Business/Project name; used in the file name.
  • Creates the canvas in the same folder as the currently active file (or vault root if none).
  • Nine cards arranged in the classic BMC grid with non-overlapping coordinates.
  • Distinct colors for cards using Canvas color IDs.
  • Emoji-enhanced headings and prompting questions for each card.
  • Placeholder “[Type here…]” added to each card to guide editing.

Commands and UI

  • Command: Create Business Model Canvas
    • Opens a modal asking for the business name.
    • Creates “ - Business Model Canvas - YYYY-MM-DD.canvas”.
    • Automatically opens the canvas after creation.
  • Ribbon icon: dashboard-style icon labeled “Create Business Model Canvas”.
    • Click to launch the same generator flow as the command palette.

Installation (Manual)

  1. Build the plugin:
    • npm install
    • npm run build
  2. Copy the release files to your vault:
    • From this repo root, copy main.js and manifest.json into: <YourVault>/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-strategist-toolkit/
  3. Reload Obsidian and enable the plugin in:
    • Settings → Community plugins → Installed plugins.

Development

  • Scripts:

    • npm run dev — watch mode (esbuild)
    • npm run build — production build
    • npm run lint — lint the project

  • Recommended workflow (symlink to your vault):

    ln -s "/Users/sovitp/Documents/psovit/projects/obs-plg-bmc" "<YourVault>/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-strategist-toolkit"

    Then run npm run dev and reload the plugin in Obsidian to see changes.

How It Works

  • Entry point: main.ts
    • Registers the command and adds the ribbon button.
  • Command logic: create-bmc.ts
    • Prompts for business name and creates the .canvas file in the current folder.
    • Handles file name conflicts and opens the canvas.
  • UI modal: BusinessNameModal.ts
    • Simple modal to collect the business name.
  • Layout generator: bmc.ts
    • Defines nine text nodes with coordinates, sizes, emoji titles, color IDs, and “[Type here…]” placeholders.

Troubleshooting

  • Command not visible
    • Ensure the plugin is enabled in Settings → Community plugins.
  • Canvas not created in expected folder
    • The plugin uses the currently active file’s folder. Open a file in the desired folder before running the command.
  • Filename conflicts
    • The plugin appends “(1)”, “(2)”, etc., if a file with the same name exists.
