Support Graph view when working with multiple Vaults

[secure-77]

Hi @athshean,

Yes, at the moment this won't work because only one metadata.json is supported.

The problem is, that:

• The metadata.json needs to be located in the root of the NOTES_PATH or perlite folder (if none is defined).
• Because of the relative paths in the metadata.json, the file needs to be in the root folder of the vault.

Example 1 (no vault defined):

-perlite
--metadata.json
--test.md
--test2.md

Example 2 (vault1 defined)
-perlite
--vault1
---metadata.json
---test.md
---test2.md

What should work is: copy the contents of all your vaults into the perlite folder and also merge all the metadata.json files into one that you provide in the perlite folder. Then Perlite will act like a "vault" and the graph should work.
If you want to keep your vault root folders for the structure and menu as well, you will need to adjust/expand the contents of each metadata.json vault to include the vault name before each relativePath key, you will also need to add another ../ before each displayText key. A simple Python script should automate this task.

To get the demo graph working without defining a NOTES_PATH, you can copy the contents of the demo folder to the perlite folder, provide the metadata.json in the Perlite folder as well, and the graph should work.

So this is not a bug, it's just not implemented yet... I will think about it, maybe i can implement it in the future.

BR,
