Obsidian Git Tools

Tools for working with Obsidian and Git, mostly managing syncing and merging across your computers and devices.

How to make this work:

1. install the package

npm install -g @cameronolivier/ogt

2. Create an .ogtrcfile in your home directory
3. In your docs folder (where you have the git repo for syncing), run ogt to sync your iCloud vault with your other vaults.

How to dev:

1. Clone this repo
2. Run npm run init. This makes the cli script executable and adds the ogt command to your path (via npm link).
3. Create an .ogtrcfile in your home directory.

Creating an .ogtrc file

Create an .ogtrc file in your home directory with the following contents:

{
  "externalPath": the file directory for your device(iCloud) vault,
  "vaultPath": where you store your docs vault that sinks to git,
  "message": (Optional) The commit message, defaults to: 'Updating iDrive Vault Docs',
  "branchName": (Optional) The branch name, defaults to "icloud_docs_merge",
  "verbose": (Optional) true or false, defaults to false for whether to log out progress to the console.
