Automatically Creating Book Notes via Forms ?

[knario]

Hi,
I've been using Trilium for a relatively short time. I come from using Logseq. With the help of AI, I've created an HTML code that simulates a table with a form where I can add information about the books I like, want to read, or have already read. I created an HTML note and then a render note to display the content of the HTML code note.

My question is whether there's a way to automatically create new notes for each book entry added through the form. I'm not sure if I'm explaining myself clearly.

I'll send some screenshots here. Thank you very much.

This form interface looks great.

Are you asking how to create a note via code? If so, you can refer to the following:

await api.runOnBackend(noteId => api.createTextNote(noteId), [noteId])

This js will create a text note under the given noteId.

You can find more supported backend APIs at the following link:
https://github.com/TriliumNext/Notes/blob/5af4d65d1f9764c68773fe644f9ccc160d5f7d3d/apps/server/src/services/backend_script_api.ts#L178

Thank you very much! I'm going to look into the API and start studying it to see if I can make use of it and do something with forms.
I think it's a pretty effective way to create notes and workflows of any kind.
They could be about books, movies, habits, etc., just like people usually do in other programs.

How can I upload the code? Because when I copy it here in code format, it takes up a lot of space.

You can paste it to GitHub Gist or or attach save it to file and change its extension to .txt and then upload it here (GitHub doesn't allow JavaScript or .zips as attachment).
