Plugin Version

1.0.3

Describe the Issue

Here's the example I used as reference:

obsidian-meta-bind-plugin/exampleVault/Advanced Examples/Activity Tracker.md

Line 12 in 831c052

const bindTarget = mb.createBindTarget('activities', context.file.path);

Gives the error:

plugin:js-engine:45 failed to execute JS Error: [MB_INTERNAL] "invalid arguments supplied to function" caused by error "[
  {
    "code": "invalid_type",
    "expected": "array",
    "received": "undefined",

Steps to Reproduce

Reproducible in a new test vault with Metabind and JSengine installed:

```js-engine
const mb = engine.getPlugin('obsidian-meta-bind-plugin').api;

const bindTarget = mb.createBindTarget('activities', context.file.path);
```

Expected Behavior

Shouldn't error as it worked in previous (<1.0) versions.

Or example needs to be updated for new behavior?

[seomwan]

I see the api changed and there's a new required argument:

obsidian-meta-bind-plugin/packages/core/src/api/API.ts

Line 594 in 831c052

property: string[],

This does silence that error and give a new one, although I'm not sure what needs to be passed in:

mb.createBindTarget('activities', context.file.path, ['activities'])

And the corresponding test doesn't seemed to be updated yet:

obsidian-meta-bind-plugin/tests/metadataManagerTests/MetadataManager.test.ts

Line 30 in 831c052

function createBindTarget(file: string, path: string[], listenToChildren: boolean = false): BindTargetDeclaration {

But that api looks even more outdated (different?) than the current code I'm using..

[seomwan]

Okay, just missed the doc comments right above that:

obsidian-meta-bind-plugin/packages/core/src/api/API.ts

Lines 583 to 590 in 831c052

	/**
	* Creates a bind target declaration.
	*
	* @param storageType the storage type (also named metadata source sometimes)
	* @param storagePath the storage path (usually the file path)
	* @param property the property path a.b.c = ['a', 'b', 'c']
	* @param listenToChildren whether to listen to children, only relevant for arrays and objects
	*/

Updated my code to:

const mb = engine.getPlugin('obsidian-meta-bind-plugin').api;

const bindTarget = mb.createBindTarget('activities', context.file.path);

And it still gives an error, but I'm pretty sure it's due to another problem:createInputFieldDeclarationFromString no longer exists

Tried to trace it until:

obsidian-meta-bind-plugin/packages/core/src/api/API.ts

Line 570 in 831c052

const startStr: string = this.getInlineFieldDeclarationPrefix(widgetType) + '[';

I don't know why it gives undefined here, and I'm out of time, so I'll check it later..

[mProjectsCode]

Oh yeah, it seems like I forgot to finish the new API for creating the tables.

[mProjectsCode]

Released a new canary release that with the new API and updated the pf2e example.

I'm getting an Error:
mb.createTableMountable is not a function

Edit: restarting fixed it
