Apply unicode normalization while resolving notes. [Nick Groenen]
The unicode standard allows for certain (visually) identical characters to be represented in different ways.
For example the character ä may be represented as a single combined codepoint "Latin Small Letter A with Diaeresis" (U+00E4) or by the combination of "Latin Small Letter A" (U+0061) followed by "Combining Diaeresis" (U+0308).
When encoded with UTF-8, these are represented as respectively the two bytes 0xC3 0xA4, and the three bytes 0x61 0xCC 0x88.
A user linking to notes with these characters in their titles would expect these two variants to link to the same file, given they are visually identical and have the exact same semantic meaning.
The unicode standard defines a method to deconstruct and normalize these forms, so that a byte comparison on the normalized forms of these variants ends up comparing the same thing. This is called Unicode Normalization, defined in Unicode® Standard Annex #15 (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15/).
The W3C Working Group has written an excellent explanation of the problems regarding string matching, and how unicode normalization helps with this process: https://www.w3.org/TR/charmod-norm/#unicodeNormalization
With this change, obsidian-export will perform unicode normalization (specifically the C (or NFC) normalization form) on all note titles while looking up link references, ensuring visually identical links are treated as being similar, even if they were encoded as different variants.
A special thanks to Hans Raaf (@oderwat) for reporting and helping track down this issue.
Breaking Changes (affects library API only)
-
Pass context and events as mutable references to postprocessors. [Nick Groenen]
Instead of passing clones of context and the markdown tree to postprocessors, pass them a mutable reference which may be modified in-place.
This is a breaking change to the postprocessor implementation, changing both the input arguments as well as the return value:
- dyn Fn(Context, MarkdownEvents) -> (Context, MarkdownEvents, PostprocessorResult) + Send + Sync; + dyn Fn(&mut Context, &mut MarkdownEvents) -> PostprocessorResult + Send + Sync;
With this change the postprocessor API becomes a little more ergonomic to use however, especially making the intent around return statements more clear.

v22.1.0 (2022-01-02)
Happy new year! On this second day of 2022 comes a fresh release with one notable new feature.
New
-
Support Obsidian's "Strict line breaks" setting. [Nick Groenen]
This change introduces a new
--hard-linebreaks
CLI argument. When used, this converts soft line breaks to hard line breaks, mimicking Obsidian's "Strict line breaks" setting.Implementation detail: I considered naming this flag
--strict-line-breaks
to be consistent with Obsidian itself, however I feel the name is somewhat misleading and ill-chosen.

-
Give release binaries file extensions. [Nick Groenen]
This may make it more clear to users that these are precompiled, binary files. This is especially relevant on Windows, where the convention is that executable files have a

New
-
Support postprocessors running on embedded notes. [Nick Groenen]
This introduces support for postprocessors that are run on the result of a note that is being embedded into another note. This differs from the existing postprocessors (which remain unchanged) that run once all embeds have been processed and merged with the final note.
These "embed postprocessors" may be set through the new
Exporter::add_embed_postprocessor
method. -
Add start_at option to export a partial vault. [Nick Groenen]
This introduces a new
--start-at
CLI argument and correspondingstart_at()

v0.7.0 (2021-04-11)
New
-
Postprocessing support. [Nick Groenen]
Add support for postprocessing of Markdown prior to writing converted notes to disk.
Postprocessors may be used when making use of Obsidian export as a Rust library to do the following:
- Modify a note's
Context
, for example to change the destination filename or update its Frontmatter. - Change a note's contents by altering
MarkdownEvents
. - Prevent later postprocessors from running or cause a note to be skipped entirely.
Future releases of Obsidian export may come with built-in postprocessors for users of the command-line tool to use, if general use-cases can be identified.
For example, a future release might include functionality to make notes more suitable for the Hugo static site generator. This functionality would be implemented as a postprocessor that could be enabled through command-line flags.
- Modify a note's
Fixes
-
Also percent-encode
?
in filenames. [Nick Groenen]A recent Obsidian update expanded the list of allowed characters in filenames, which now includes
?
as well. This needs to be percent-encoded for proper links in static site generators like Hugo.

New
- Add
--version

Changes
-
Don't Box FilterFn in WalkOptions. [Nick Groenen]
Previously,
filter_fn
on theWalkOptions
struct looked like:pub filter_fn: Option<Box<&'static FilterFn>>,
This boxing was unneccesary and has been changed to:
pub filter_fn: Option<&'static FilterFn>,
This will only affect people who use obsidian-export as a library in other Rust programs, not users of the CLI.
For those library users, they no longer need to supply
FilterFn
wrapped in a Box.
Fixes
-
Recognize notes beginning with underscores. [Nick Groenen]
Notes with an underscore would fail to be recognized within Obsidian
[[_WikiLinks]]
due to the assumption that the underlying Markdown parser (pulldown_cmark) would emit the text between[[
and]]
as a single event.The note parser has now been rewritten to use a more reliable state machine which correctly recognizes this corner-case (and likely some others).
-
Support self-references. [Joshua Coles]
This ensures links to headings within the same note (
[[#Heading]]
) resolve correctly.

v0.5.1 (2021-01-10)
Fixes
-
Find uppercased notes when referenced with lowercase. [Nick Groenen]
This commit fixes a bug where, if a note contained uppercase characters (for example
Note.md
) but was referred to using lowercase ([[note]]
), that note would not be found.
v0.5.0 (2021-01-05)
New
-
Add --no-recursive-embeds to break infinite recursion cycles. [Nick Groenen]
It's possible to end up with "recursive embeds" when two notes embed each other. This happens for example when a
Note A.md
contains![[Note B]]
butNote B.md
also contains![[Note A]]
.By default, this will trigger an error and display the chain of notes which caused the recursion.
Using the new
--no-recursive-embeds
, if a note is encountered for a second time while processing the original note, rather than embedding it again a link to the note is inserted instead to break the cycle. -
Make walk options configurable on CLI. [Nick Groenen]
By default hidden files, patterns listed in
.export-ignore
as well as any files ignored by git are excluded from exports. This behavior has been made configurable on the CLI using the new flags--hidden
,--ignore-file
and--no-git
. -
Support links referencing headings. [Nick Groenen]
Previously, links referencing a heading (
[[note#heading]]
) would just link to the file name without including an anchor in the link target. Now, such references will include an appropriate#anchor
attribute.Note that neither the original Markdown specification, nor the more recent CommonMark standard, specify how anchors should be constructed for a given heading.
There are also some differences between the various Markdown rendering implementations.
Obsidian-export uses the slug crate to generate anchors which should be compatible with most implementations, however your mileage may vary.
(For example, GitHub may leave a trailing
-
on anchors when headings end with a smiley. The slug library, and thus obsidian-export, will avoid such dangling dashes). -
Support embeds referencing headings. [Nick Groenen]
Previously, partial embeds (
![[note#heading]]
) would always include the entire file into the source note. Now, such embeds will only include the contents of the referenced heading (and any subheadings).Links and embeds of arbitrary blocks remains unsupported at this time.
Changes
-
Print warnings to stderr rather than stdout. [Nick Groenen]
Warning messages emitted when encountering broken links/references will now be printed to stderr as opposed to stdout.
Other
- Include filter_fn field in WalkOptions debug display. [Nick Groenen]
v0.4.0 (2020-12-23)
Fixes
-
Correct relative links within embedded notes. [Nick Groenen]
Links within an embedded note would point to other local resources relative to the filesystem location of the note being embedded.
When a note inside a different directory would embed such a note, these links would point to invalid locations.
Now these links are calculated relative to the top note, which ensures these links will point to the right path.
Other
- Add brief library documentation to all public types and functions. [Nick Groenen]
v0.3.0 (2020-12-21)
New
-
Report file tree when RecursionLimitExceeded is hit. [Nick Groenen]
This refactors the Context to maintain a list of all the files which have been processed so far in a chain of embeds. This information is then used to print a more helpful error message to users of the CLI when RecursionLimitExceeded is returned.
Changes
-
Add extra whitespace around multi-line warnings. [Nick Groenen]
This makes errors a bit easier to distinguish after a number of warnings has been printed.
Other
-
Setup gitchangelog. [Nick Groenen]
This adds a changelog (CHANGES.md) which is automatically generated with gitchangelog.
