v0.2.3 — Settings copy polish

Copy fixes

Three settings-tab polish fixes, i18n-only (no code change):

1. Dropped backticks around picfast in Base URL and API token descriptions. Obsidian's settings tab doesn't render markdown — the backticks were showing up as literal ` characters in the UI.

2. zh-CN dropdown: first option was 'Off（使用 Obsidian 默认行为）'. The English word 'Off' was sneaking into the Chinese UI. Now '关闭（Obsidian 默认行为）'.

3. zh-CN Upload behavior description: changed 'Ask 会弹一个 1-click 小菜单让你选择' (casual translation) to 'Ask 模式每次都会弹出一个简短菜单供你选择' (more idiomatic).

v0.2.2 — Trim settings hint copy

Cleanup

Settings tab copy edits (i18n only, no code change):

• Base URL description trimmed from 3 sentences to 2. Dropped the platform-specific path ~/.config/picfast/config.json (which is wrong on Windows anyway — Windows uses %APPDATA%\picfast\config.json). Dropped the nested parenthesis '(the picfast npm CLI config)' qualifier.
• API token description: same trim + cleaned up the 'Also auto-filled' phrasing.

Before

Your PicFast instance root, e.g. https://picfast.example.com.
Leave empty to auto-fill from the PICFAST_URL env var or
~/.config/picfast/config.json (the `picfast` npm CLI config).

After

Your PicFast instance root, e.g. https://picfast.example.com.
Leave empty to auto-fill from PICFAST_URL env var or `picfast` CLI config.

(Chinese version likewise.)

v0.2.1 — Fix Ctrl+P TypeError + right-click menu + command prefix

Fixes

1. Ctrl+P TypeError (and silent right-click menu disappearance)

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'trim')
  at P (plugin:picfast-image-uploader:13:2837)
  at Object.editorCheckCallback (plugin:picfast-image-uploader:14:6492)

Root cause: the shared matchAll helper assumed both regexes had m[1] and m[2] capture groups. The wikilink regex /![[path]]/g only has m[1], so every wikilink hit came back with path: undefined.

That caused two visible symptoms:

• Ctrl+P TypeError: editorCheckCallback called isRemotePath(match.rawPath) → undefined.trim() crashed. Obsidian builds the command palette list by calling every command's editorCheckCallback(checking=true) at startup, so the crash prevented the command from appearing.
• Right-click menu missing: the editor-menu workspace handler also called isRemotePath on the same bad rawPath. When it threw, the menu flow aborted before menu.addItem was reached, so the item never appeared in the menu.

Fix: split into matchMarkdown() (uses m[1]=alt, m[2]=path) and matchWikilink() (uses m[1]=path, no alt). Also hardened isRemotePath to return false on undefined input.

2. Command names prefixed with PicFast:

• PicFast: Upload image from clipboard
• PicFast: Upload selected image file
• PicFast: Upload image at cursor

(Chinese: PicFast: 从剪贴板上传图片 / PicFast: 上传选中的图片文件 / PicFast: 上传光标处的图片)

This makes them group together in the command palette and visually separates them from similar commands in other plugins.

Install

Same path: download the 3 files from this release and overwrite the v0.2.0 files in .obsidian/plugins/picfast-image-uploader/. Settings forward-compatible.

v0.2.0 — Upload image at cursor

New: upload image that's already in your note

Three ways to invoke:

1. Command palette — PicFast: Upload image at cursor to PicFast. Only appears when the cursor sits inside a markdown / wikilink image reference that points at a local file.

2. Right-click menu — the same command shows up in the editor context menu when the cursor is over an image link.

3. Existing paste / drop handlers (unchanged from v0.1.4).

Recognised link forms

• ![alt](local-path.png) — standard markdown
• ![[local-path]] / ![[path|300]] — Obsidian wikilink (size / alt suffixes stripped)
• http:// / https:// / data: URLs — skipped, the plugin tells you it's already remote

Path resolution:

• URL-decoded (%20 → space etc.)
• Strips leading ./ and chains of ../
• Falls back to trying .png/ .jpg/ .jpeg/ .gif/ .webp/ .svg/ .bmp/ .avif when the wikilink omitted the extension

Failure handling

Every failure path surfaces a Notice and leaves the markdown untouched:

• Already a remote URL → Notice "this image is already remote"
• Can't resolve path → Notice with the resolved path search list
• Can't read file (permission, vault race) → Notice
• Upload error → existing performUpload Notice

Replacement

Always ![alt](remote-url) regardless of whether the original was a markdown link or wikilink. Obsidian renders both identically for remote URLs.

Install

Same path: overwrite the 3 files in .obsidian/plugins/picfast-image-uploader/. Settings are forward-compatible — no migration needed.

v0.1.4 — No more double insert, i18n complete

Fixes

1. Double-insert (paste/drop created 2 images)

Root cause: evt.preventDefault() was called inside a .then() callback. By then the event had already finished propagating and Obsidian's default handler had already inserted ![[attachment.png]]. Our async upload then finished and inserted ![](url) next to it — you got two images per paste.

Fix: handleEditorImage() now decides synchronously inside the capture-phase listener and calls preventDefault() + stopPropagation() immediately when it commits to handling the image. The upload stays async — that's fine, what matters is that the event is swallowed before it reaches Obsidian's own listener.

Side effect for ask mode: when the user picks Save locally, Obsidian no longer creates the attachment for us (we already swallowed the event). So we emulate it: app.fileManager.getAvailablePathForAttachment + app.vault.createBinary + insert ![[name]]. Upload / Cancel paths unchanged.

2. Settings i18n gaps

• Upload-behavior dropdown options were hard-coded English ("Off (Obsidian default)" / "Ask each time (recommended)" / "Always upload"). Now sourced from the i18n module.
• API token placeholder "optional" was hard-coded English. Now sourced.
• 4 new i18n keys (settingUploadBehaviorOption{Off,Ask,On} + settingApiTokenPlaceholder) added to both en and zh-CN.

Install

Same path: download the 3 files from this release and overwrite the v0.1.3 files in .obsidian/plugins/picfast-image-uploader/. Settings.json is forward-compatible (no schema changes).

v0.1.3 — Fix 400 on upload + simpler settings

Fixes

1. 400 'fail to parse multipart form' (the actual blocker)

requestUrl({ body }) only accepts string | ArrayBuffer. The previous build cast a FormData instance to ArrayBuffer, which compiled fine but sent garbage to the server (no Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=... header → server couldn't parse the body).

Replaced with a hand-rolled multipart body builder: pick a boundary, encode Content-Disposition + Content-Type + filename as a header, append the raw image bytes, append the closing boundary, send as a single ArrayBuffer with the right Content-Type header. Same pattern as babarot/obsidian-image-uploader-to-api.

2. Endpoint: /api/v1/upload → /api/v1/flat/upload

The flat handler is built for external upload tools (PicGo, uPic, Dropshare) and returns a simpler JSON shape {url, markdown, html, bbcode, thumbnail_url} (no links wrapper). Both accept multipart, but flat is cleaner here.

3. Settings UI

• Removed the Insert format dropdown — Obsidian is markdown-native, no one needs HTML / BBCode insertion.
• Removed the standalone 'Auto-discover picfast CLI config' info block. The auto-discovery hint is now folded into the Base URL and API token descriptions inline where users actually look.

Install

Same path, new files: download main.js, manifest.json, styles.css from this release and overwrite the v0.1.2 files in .obsidian/plugins/picfast-image-uploader/. No settings migration needed (defaultFormat field is gone, so an existing defaultFormat key in your settings.json is silently ignored).

v0.1.2 — Default export fix

Fix (real root cause this time)

v0.1.1 patched paste/drop interception but the actual crash was on plugin load, before any handler ran. The minified bundle was:

module.exports = { PicFastImageUploaderPlugin: class, __esModule: true }

Obsidian 1.x's plugin loader does const cls = require('./main.js').default and then new cls(app) — but there was no default field. new undefined(...) throws TypeError: h is not a constructor (h is the minified variable holding the default slot).

Switched export class → export default class in src/main.ts. Bundle now has { default: ..., __esModule: true } and the loader is happy.

Install

Same as before — download main.js, manifest.json, styles.css from the release and drop them into .obsidian/plugins/picfast-image-uploader/ (overwrite the v0.1.0 / v0.1.1 files).

v0.1.1 — Fix plugin load failure

Fix

• Plugin load failed with "TypeError: h is not a constructor" on startup
• Cause: workspace.on('editor-paste', ...) and workspace.on('editor-drop', ...) are not valid Obsidian events (those are VSCode-style). The workspace falls through to a code path that requires a constructor we don't have.
• Fix: switch to registerDomEvent(document, 'paste' | 'drop', cb, true) with useCapture=true so we run before Obsidian's default handler. We bail when the target is outside a CodeMirror editor (.cm-content / .CodeMirror), so global paste for the search box and settings dialog is untouched.

Install

Same as v0.1.0 — drop main.js, manifest.json, styles.css from the release assets into your vault's .obsidian/plugins/picfast-image-uploader/. No settings migration needed (version bumped in manifest).
