Dirman

Directory manager for Neorg.

This module is be responsible for managing directories full of .norg files.

Overview

It will provide other modules the ability to see which directories the user is in, automatically changing directories, and other API bits and bobs that will allow things like telescope.nvim integration.

To use core.norg.dirman, simply load up the module in your configuration and specify the directories you want to be managed for you:

require('neorg').setup {
    load = {
        ["core.defaults"] = {},
        ["core.norg.dirman"] = {
            config = {
                workspaces = {
                    my_ws = "~/neorg", -- Format: <name_of_workspace> = <path_to_workspace_root>
                    my_other_notes = "~/work/notes",
                },
                autochdir = true, -- Automatically change the directory to the current workspace's root every time
                index = "index.norg", -- The name of the main (root) .norg file
            }
        }
    }
}

To query the current workspace, run :Neorg workspace. To set the workspace, run :Neorg workspace <workspace_name>.
