Obsidian Spoiler Plugin

An Obsidian plugin that lets you hide and reveal sensitive text in your notes with a single click. Select some text, press the ribbon button, and the selection is wrapped in a collapsible spoiler callout. Press it again on a spoiler and it gets unwrapped back to plain text.

Features

  • Adds a button to the left ribbon (near Open daily note).
  • Wraps the currently selected text in a collapsible spoiler callout.
  • Toggling: if the selection already is a spoiler, it is unwrapped back to plain text.

Spoiler format

The plugin wraps your selection in a collapsible spoiler callout, preserving any markdown inside it:

> [!spoiler]-
> super_secret_key

In reading view this renders as a collapsed callout; click it to reveal the contents.

Usage

  1. Open a note and select the text you want to hide.
  2. Click the spoiler button in the left ribbon.
  3. The selected text is replaced with a spoiler callout.
  4. To reveal it permanently, select the spoiler and click the button again to unwrap it.

Installation

From a release (recommended)

  1. Download main.js and manifest.json from the latest release.
  2. Put both files in your vault at <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/spoiler/.
  3. Reload Obsidian and enable Spoiler in Settings → Community plugins (you may need to turn off Restricted mode first).

Building from source

npm install
npm run build

This produces main.js. Copy it together with manifest.json into <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/spoiler/, then reload Obsidian and enable the plugin as above.
