This plugin will search files using Obsidian search functionality and then paste the result. The output can be customized using template feature.

• Basic usage
• Search functionality
• Template engines
  • eta
  • sequences
    • Available sequences

• You should wrap your search request like that

    ```expander
    SEARCH_QUERY
    ```

• Open command palette (Ctrl + P)
• Find and run Text expand: expand command
• It should search and put results below the wrapped request

First line in expander code block is always a search request. You can leave it empty to use results from search panel as is.

Once searching, plugin waits some time (configurable) and extract results from search panel to template engine.

You can use eta template engine for managing results.

## <%= it.current.frontmatter.title %>

<% it.files.forEach(file => { %>
   - <%= file.link %> 
<% }) %>

Use it object to access search results and fields for current file.

FileParameters type has those fields.

Using template feature you can customize an output.

• Put template below the SEARCH_QUERY line
• Put a cursor inside code block with a template
• Open command palette (Ctrl+P) and find Text expand: expand command

To create a list:

```expander
SEARCH_QUERY
- [[$filename]]
```

or to create a table:

```expander
SEARCH_QUERY
^|Filename|Content|
^|---|---|
|$filename|$lines:1|
```

Syntax looks like that:

```expander
SEARCH_QUERY
^This is a header
This line will be repeated for each file
Also, [[$filename]] <- this will be a link
>This is a footer
```

• Line prepended with ^ is a header. It will be added at the top of the list
• Line prepended with > is a footer. It will be added at the bottom of the list
• Line with no special symbol at start will be repeated for each file. Also, all special sequences will be replaced.

• Delay (default: 100ms) - the plugin don't wait until search completed. It waits for a delay and paste result after that.
• Line ending (default: <-->) - how will looks like the line below the expanded content
• Default template (default: - [[$filename]]) - how will look the expanded content when no template provided
• Prefixes - which prefix to use to recognize header/footer in template section

• Just use built-in plugin manager and find Text expand plugin
