Programmatically open a note of a specific workspace

[oschrenk]

In the epwalsh plugin I had

        local obsidian = require("obsidian")
        local client = obsidian.get_client()
        client:switch_workspace("work")

        local note = client:daily(0)
        client:open_note(note, { sync = true })

which opened the note in the buffer. I'm trying to re-create it with this fork, but I am missing something

        local switch_workspace = require("obsidian.commands.workspace")
        switch_workspace({}, "work")
        local note = require("obsidian.daily").today()
        note:open({ sync = true })

This will still open new file in the search picker and actually will display the contents of the file in the search box of the Search picker.

What am I missing here?

Ugh.

        local switch_workspace = require("obsidian.commands.workspace")
        switch_workspace({}, { args = "work" })
        local note = require("obsidian.daily").today()
        note:open({ sync = true })

I was missing that data needs to be a table with args like so { args = "work" } . Otherwise switch_workspace was loading a workspace picker.

Yes we need more tutorials on this kind of scripting
related changes: #237 #264 latter will resolve your confusion about the switch

This also reminds me I should expose workspace.switch as method.

[neo451]

#295 this is now exposed

Neat. Yeah, that is probably better than going through the command. Will try later
