Daily Work Log

An Obsidian plugin that visualizes daily time tracking (Events) and To-Do lists directly from your daily markdown notes — no YAML frontmatter required.

한국어 안내는 README.ko.md를 참고하세요.

Features

• Sidebar view: a monthly calendar, an Event (timeline) section, and a To-Do section — all in the right sidebar.
• Inline editing: add/edit/delete Events and To-Dos directly from the sidebar, without opening the note.
• Minimal metadata: everything is read from three plain markdown headings — no frontmatter needed.
• Multi-language markers: notes can use English (_Event / _ToDo / _Diary) or Korean (_이벤트 / _할일 / _다이어리) headings, recognized simultaneously regardless of your settings.
• Two independent themes: a Light/Dark toggle just for the sidebar (separate from Obsidian's own theme), and a Dashboard that follows Obsidian's theme automatically.
• Dashboard: a vault-wide summary — total notes, current streak, date range, and your last-30-days To-Do completion rate and total Event time.
• UI language: English or Korean, switchable in settings.

Daily Note Format

Daily notes must be named YYYY-MM-DD.md. A new note created through the plugin looks like this:

# _Event

- 9:00 - 10:30 Team meeting

# _ToDo

- [x] Submit weekly report
- [ ] Review pull requests

# _Diary

Free-form notes go here — not parsed or shown in the sidebar.

• Blocks can appear in any order.
• If none of the three headings are present, the plugin falls back to treating any - [ ]/- [x] line as a To-Do and any - HH:mm - HH:mm ... line as an Event, anywhere in the file.

Installation

This plugin isn't published on the Community Plugins browser yet. To install manually:

1. Download main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css from a release (or build them yourself — see below).
2. Copy the three files into <your vault>/.obsidian/plugins/daily-work-log/.
3. In Obsidian, go to Settings → Community plugins, turn off Restricted mode if needed, and enable Daily Work Log.

Building from source

npm install
npm run build   # outputs dist/main.js, dist/manifest.json, dist/styles.css

For active development, use npm run dev instead — it rebuilds automatically on every change (esbuild watch mode).

Usage

• Dashboard: click the ribbon icon (calendar-clock), or run the command "Daily Work Log 대시보드 열기" from the Command Palette. Opens as a normal tab in the main workspace.
• Sidebar: run the command "Daily Work Log 사이드바 열기" from the Command Palette (Cmd/Ctrl+P). You can assign it a hotkey in Settings → Hotkeys.
• Click a date on the calendar to open that day's note (a confirmation prompt appears if it doesn't exist yet); click Today to jump straight to today's note without a prompt.

Settings

• 마커 언어 (Marker language): which language's heading labels get inserted into newly created notes. Existing notes in either language keep working regardless of this setting.
• 사이드바 테마 (Sidebar theme): Light or Dark, for the sidebar only.

Development

npm test    # run the Vitest unit test suite
npm run build   # type-check (tsc) + production build
