No feature changes — this release clears two advisories from the community directory's automated review.

  • The UI language is now read through Obsidian's own moment.locale() instead of the language key in localStorage.
  • The stylesheet no longer uses !important: the hidden state is expressed as .cp-hover.cp-hidden.

Everything else is untouched.

Initial release.

Source Peek previews what a link points at, right where you're reading: rest the pointer on a link and a panel appears showing the lines of a source file, a file inside a repository, or a section of a web page.

Highlights

  • Local source files — [the parser](../src/main.c#L18), or a range with #L18-L23. Only the lines you named, with syntax highlighting by file extension. Paths resolve from the note and are bounded by the vault.
  • Repository files — GitHub and GitLab blob links are fetched at their raw URL and previewed exactly like local files.
  • Web pages — preview the whole page, or take just a section by heading: #install, #install-usage, #-#install, #install-. A heading is matched by its element id, its slugged text, or the text itself.
  • Structured rendering — headings keep their level, lists get bullets, quotes get a border, and code blocks keep their indentation, syntax highlighting, and sideways scrolling.
  • A panel you can use — move into it, scroll it, select text from it. It closes on scroll, on Escape, on a click elsewhere, and when the window loses focus.
  • Matches Obsidian — a plain hover in reading view, Ctrl + hover in the editor (Cmd on a Mac), the same split as the built-in page preview. Ordinary vault links and attachments are untouched.
  • English and Simplified Chinese interface, following Obsidian's language setting.

Install

Copy main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css into <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/source-peek/, then enable the plugin.

Requires Obsidian 1.4.0 or newer. Desktop only — it reads source files through Node's filesystem API.

Known limits

  • Pages rendered by JavaScript arrive as an empty shell — the plugin fetches HTML and runs no scripts.
  • Very long pages are slow to draw whole; narrow them with a heading fragment.
