# Obsidian File Index
Obsidian plugin to create a metadata file about the files present in the Vault
</div>
## About
This [Obsidian] plugin creates and keeps updated a `file-index.json` file at the root of your Vault, containing a list of all file paths and a map of all basenames to file paths.
Useful to externally render Wikilinks with no knowledge of the file structure of the vault, for example in [Glassflame].
```json
{
"paths": [
"README.md",
"Garas/moto.md",
"Garas/auto.md"
],
"basenames": {
"moto": "Garas/moto.md",
"auto": "Garas/auto.md"
}
}
```
[Obsidian]: https://obsidian.md/
[Glassflame]: https://glassflame.github.io/
## Ignore
Files can be excluded by the index by adding a `file-index-ignore.json` file at the root of your Vault, containing a JSON array of regular expressions that will prevent matching files from being added to the list:
```json
[
"^Garas",
".*HelloWorld.*"
]
```
## Known issues
> [!WARNING]
>
> May have some trouble distinguishing between files with the same basename, but in different folders.
