pkmapp's Issues

Hierarchical links

Given,

# Title
## Section

We should be able to less ambiguously link to Section via something like:

[Title/Section]

Linking as just [Section] should still be possible, but it might require disambiguation to load.

Selection is not cleared when focus moves between different contexts

Selection can exist both inside and outside a transclusion at the same time. A "focus lost" event for the host context could be the right place to clear this.

Add metadata to logical blocks

This will allow defining aliases and other items.

It will take the form of a code block of type meta. The format will be YAML.

e.g.

```meta
alias:
- name
```

By default the UI will collapse these blocks into an icon.

How to trigger insertion before a container block?

e.g. in:

> a

If the focus is > |a how should we insert a prior paragraph:

b
> a

Need a way to do block selection for a single block

Probably repurpose Ctrl-A

Enter on blank line causes problems

Might be two separate issues:

1. If I create a blank note and press enter, the cursor disappears and a few seconds later the tab crashes
2. If I create an empty bullet and press enter, a bullet appears below but the cursor does not move to it

Errors trying to install in Crostini

Following the steps in README.md using Crostini, I ran into a couple errors. I haven't been able to move past the second so far.

1. make was missing, so I ran sudo apt install build-essential

2. There appears to be an issue with tree-sitter-markdown and nan, which might be nodejs/nan#942:

npm ERR! > [email protected] install
[...skipped]
npm ERR! In file included from ../node_modules/nan/nan.h:180,
npm ERR!                  from ../bindings/node/binding.cc:3:

npm ERR!    55 | typedef v8::Local<v8::AccessorSignature> Sig;

Per the issue, I tried resolving this by adding the following to package.json, but it doesn't seem to do the trick

"scripts" {
  // ...
  "preinstall": "npx npm-force-resolutions"
},
"resolutions": {
  "nan": "2.17.0"
}

Deleting list items with block selection can result in unusual structures

* 1
  * 2
  * 3

Block selection and deletion of * 1 results in:

* * 2
  * 3

Input still goes to a transclusion that is the selectionFocus

So Backspace, Ctrl-C don't work as expected.

Section normalization failure case

# top
* 1
* 2
* 3

# outer

After replacing 2 with # inner the result is:

# top
* 1
* # inner
  
  # outer
* 3

Solving insert-before and insert-after

[Enter] has currently has magical and broken behavior.

The reason... it seemed desirable that pressing [Enter] in a list item would create a sibling list item. The workaround [Shift-Enter] creates an adjacent paragraph within the list item.

Following on from that, it seemed reasonable that this behavior would apply to other block types. Pressing [Enter] in a block quote would create a paragraph adjacent to the block quote.

However, this feels wrong when the block-quote contains other items like sections -- because pressing [Enter] in a section still creates an adjacent paragraph in the section.

Use github release for tree-sitter

There are finally some new releases for tree-sitter that include the fixes for tree-sitter-markdown: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter/releases

web-tree-sitter on npm has not been published, but the js/wasm resources are included in the github release. Maybe we can depend on the github release from package.json directly?

Where to store timestamps?

File System Access API does not support setting last modified time. In order to support sync in-app we'll need to track last modified time separately.

tree-sitter-markdown supports https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/

Metadata code blocks were added in 6d3d39f. This was probably because front matter applies to the whole document, but metadata is required for all blocks.

Block deletion of section heading deletes entire section

# a
1

# b
2

Delete of # a also removes 1

Selection can't span multiple blocks

In Roam, I'll commonly want to cut/indent/whatever the past couple nodes. I'll hold shift and press the up arrow, which goes from selection text in one block to selecting entire blocks.

Currently Shift+Up is the same as just arrowing up to the previous block.

Block serialization with filtering can leave excess indentation

Filtering to the list on the second line of:

* a
  * b

Will result in * b

Unindent can reorder blocks

* a
  * b
  
  c

Unindent at b results in:

* a
  
  c
* b

Dynamic aliases

These are aliases that are only dynamically associated with a target. For example the target that today resolves to would depend on the current date. These are potentially not enumerable, Next Monday, `

It's likely that links in this form would not appear as backlinks.

Unsure about use cases beyond dates.

Block selection does not work with transclusions

The transclusion is selected but focus moves inside.

Share target

Mainly for URLs.

New window will need to sync/exchange with any open window. Show similar UI as the "Send to" command.

Markdown serialization of blocks can result in incorrect indents

* b
  * c
  * d

Trying to copy blocks c+d results in:

* * c
  * d
