Pin of the Day

Obsidian plugin that keeps today's daily note pinned, automatically.

On startup, it unpins whatever was pinned before and pins today's note instead. If you close that tab and reopen today's note later in the session, it gets pinned again too.

Requirements

The core Daily Notes plugin must be enabled.

Settings

Create today's note automatically at startup (off by default). When enabled, today's note is created (using the Daily Notes plugin's own folder, format and template) if it doesn't exist yet, then pinned. With this off, the plugin does nothing until the note exists.

Install

Not on the community plugin list. To install manually:

1. Grab main.js and manifest.json from a release.
2. Drop them in <vault>/.obsidian/plugins/pin-of-the-day/.
3. Enable the plugin from Settings → Community plugins.

Development

npm install
npm run dev        # build, watch, and deploy into the vault at $PIN_OF_THE_DAY_VAULT_PATH
npm test           # unit tests for the pure decision logic in src/logic.ts
npm run lint
npm run typecheck

src/logic.ts holds the actual pin/reuse/create decisions and is fully unit-tested. src/main.ts is the Obsidian-facing glue; it isn't unit-tested and is exercised by hand in the real app instead.
