Table of Contents
1. Version 0.2.0 on 2024-09-15
1.1. The command consult-denote-find
always previews files
This command will search for matching file names through the
denote-directory
. It now previews the selected file in the
minibuffer, whereas before the preview had to be triggered manually.
Remember that you can customise what command is actually called, per
consult-denote-find-command
(default is consult-find
, with
consult-fd
as another likely choice).
1.2. The commands denote-find-link
and denote-find-backlink
have previews
This is relevant when consult-denote-mode
is enabled. This mode
makes changes in the background to make all file-related Denote
minibuffer prompts have the preview functionality. The idea is that
users keep the same workflow and overall style, while benefiting from
the added features.
Thanks to hapst3r for suggesting something similar which made me
realise those commands were not actually covered by consult-denote-mode
.
[ If there are more Denote commands that you think could benefit from
consult-denote-mode
but are not covered yet, please let me know. ]
1.3. The package now has a manual and change log
You can find the relevant source files in consult-denote.git and their web pages on my website.

2. Version 0.1.0 on 2024-07-03
The consult-denote
provides glue code to integrate denote
with
Daniel Mendler’s consult
package. The idea is to enhance minibuffer
interactions, such as by providing a preview of the file-to-linked or
opened and by adding more sources to the consult-buffer
command.
Interested users can enable the consult-denote-mode
to get started.
2.1. Familiar minibuffer prompts
consult-denote
is designed to enhance all relevant Denote prompts
with whatever extras Consult provides, such as the preview facility.
These Consult-powered minibuffer prompts will still follow the same
patterns of interaction as core Denote: they will never use a
profoundly different presentation.
2.2. Customise what consult-buffer
shows from Denote
The extra sources added to the consult-buffer
command are controlled
by the user option consult-denote-buffer-sources
. Its default value
is the list of sources called consult-denote-all-buffer-sources
.
2.3. Developed in tandem with Denote
My goal with this package is to keep it as close to Denote as
possible. If the community wants a new feature, we can discuss whether
a variant of it makes sense for denote
before considering its
inclusion in consult-denote
.
