Obsidian Plugin Development Sync

A Bash script to seamlessly synchronize Obsidian plugin projects with Obsidian vaults. It leverages rsync and fswatch for real-time development across different devices.

Works on Linux and macOS (including iCloud vaults for mobile testing).

This script syncs all necessary Obsidian plugin files, including the essential main.js and manifest.json, for plugin functionality in both desktop and mobile versions of Obsidian.

Prerequisites

  • Install rsync and fswatch on your system.
  • Make the script executable with chmod +x sync_plugin.sh.
  • Adjust the watch_items array in the script to specify files and directories for synchronization.

Usage

Execute the script, specifying the target plugin base directory, e.g., ~/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~md~obsidian/Documents/<your_vault_name>/.obsidian/plugins/. This will create a plugin directory at this path, named after the directory from which you execute the script.

Initial synchronization covers everything in watch_items, with continuous monitoring and syncing of changes.

watch_items=(
    "$source_dir/main.js",
    "$source_dir/styles.css",
    "$source_dir/manifest.json",
    "$source_dir/data.json",
    "$source_dir/assets",
    "$source_dir/cache"
)
