From regular DataView, slice ?

[stecydube]

I know this is is doable in js but from a table query I would like to be able to do something like

TABLE slice(split(file.folder,"/"), 2) AS Folder
...

So having "a/b/c/d" it would output "c/d"

slice doesn't exist, is there a way to achieve this somehow?

Somehow doing a split(file.folder,"/")[1] works but I need the rest of the array 😁

I feel like this was temporarily added and reverted. I'll have to check when I can.

It was added to Dataview arrays, but not to DataviewQL; I will add it in the next release, mimicing JS behavior.

@stecydube can confirm that this was recently added. Kindly use the latest release and test it out.

@AB1908 @blacksmithgu
Can't find it in the doc at https://blacksmithgu.github.io/obsidian-dataview/query/functions/
Is it available but not documented?

[AB1908]

My apologies for that, the docs are lagging behind a bit and a team of volunteers are working on them for Obsidian October.

Strangely, I don't see it on the dv.func object.

Ah it doesn't seem to be part of the QL yet.
