Raindrop Live

Raindrop Live brings your Raindrop.io bookmarks into Obsidian as live, configurable code blocks. It displays bookmarks without creating a separate note for every saved link.

This project is a maintained fork of Micah Topping's original obsidian-raindrop plugin.

Features

• Live list and table views
• Sidebar builder for inserting a configured Raindrop view
• Collection, search, and sort controls
• Optional tags and bookmark highlights
• Automatic refresh while the note is open

Setup

1. Open Raindrop integrations.
2. Create an app and copy its test token.
3. In Obsidian, open Settings → Raindrop Live.
4. Paste the token into Raindrop Test Token.

The token is stored in your local Obsidian plugin settings. The plugin's data.json file is ignored by this repository and should never be committed.

Using the sidebar builder

1. Open the note where you want the bookmark view.
2. Select the Raindrop icon in Obsidian's left ribbon.
3. Choose the collection, search query, sort order, display options, and format.
4. Select Insert Raindrop View.

Manual configuration

You can also create a raindrop code block directly:

collection: 0
format: list
sort: -created
search: #css
showTags: true
highlights: false

Key	Values	Default
collection	Collection ID; 0 for all or -1 for unsorted	0
format	list or table	list

Development

Install the locked dependencies and build the plugin:

For local testing, copy these files into .obsidian/plugins/raindrop-live/ in a test vault:

• main.js
• manifest.json

Reload Obsidian and enable Raindrop Live under Community plugins.
