Bulk Pocket item note creation #37
Comments
I don't understand what you're describing. Can you describe it more clearly? |
Also, is this a duplicate of #36? |
Unless I'm doing something wrong here is my understanding of the actual process of creating notes from the pocket plugin in Obsidian: It will be time consuming if you want to important 200 Pocket saved articles in Obsidian this way. I will like to have a check box in the Obsidian plugin to select all the articles that are needed to be created as notes. |
Are you basically trying to save your entire Pocket list onto Obsidian notes, so that you can clear out your Pocket list, but still have all of the URLs saved in Obsidian? |
Yes, in a way. |
Okay I understand now. I think that how this would work is not really straightforward, for the following reason: if two Pocket items have the same title (e.g. if you save two different Twitter threads from the same author, the title defaults to the author's name), what should be the right behavior? |
Oh just noticed this feature request is the same as mine. My issue should be merged with this one. |
How I see it is a way to know what items have been synced or not, in order to have a clear view of what have been imported and what's new. Maybe mark imported pocket items as 'imported' so that the user knows what has been done or not ? In this case there would be an action like "sync non-imported items" that would act as bulk import but only for non-imported items. What do you think ? |
@rezgi and I talked about this over DMs and got to a clear definition of what they are asking for, which is: make it possible to create Obsidian notes for all synced Pocket items that don't already have one. This functionality could be exposed as a command. Also, the terms we used are:
We are going to avoid using the term "imported" because it was ambiguous. @rezgi LMK if there's anything I got wrong or missed. |
That's exactly it, thanks ! |
Hey I'm revisiting this, because #66 is done and allows for handling of Pocket items with duplicate names, amongst other challenges. I am thinking about implementing it as follows (make the functionality as simple as possible):
Please LMK if you have any feedback/comments/questions about that. I'll try to get going on that shortly. |
Your suggestion #2 is exactly what I was about to add a feature request for. |
This is released and available now in 0.8.0. LMK if you have any issues and if this meets your needs. |
It's perfect! |
Have the possibility to bulk create note from the Pocket sync by CTL+click or check box with.
