Frontmatter object; set variable in js script and pass it along on creation

[Cabbage363]

Good day,

So, I have created a simple script that is generic to my purposes and hope to be able to reuse the functionality if I can get this working.

It is currently tied to a button that activates the script, to which then processes and then generates a new Note with specific parameters.
-> Button

name Create Daily Note
	<% tp.user.fooBar(tp, app) %>
templater true

-> script.js

tp.frontmatter.popper = "crackel"
tp.frontmatter.soOn = "andSoForth..."

await tp.file.create_new(tp.file.find_tfile('DailyClassNote'),
        fileName, false,
        noteLocal)   

From my understanding is that the tp.frontmatteris just a storage object, like res.locals. However upon the creation of the new Note the tp.frontmatter becomes empty and there are not pre-set keys stored. Each variation of this Note creation has different keys generated and stored. The simple solution is to generated them in a Templater script <% ie. in here %> and set them into the tp.frontmatter object so that they can be passed along. However, with the various different scopes I plan on using this, that may become tedious, rather then just changing a mapping function in the JS script.

I assumed that this is because the tp.frontmatter is in reference of the current Note of where the Button is clicked and then not passed into the new Note (which has its own instance of tp.frontmatter).

Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

thank

Sorry for the stupid question but what is the use case? I couldn't gather that from your info.
