# Obsidian Sample Plugin
# Obsidian TingPNG Plugin

This is a sample plugin for Obsidian (https://obsidian.md).
**Note: This is NOT an official plugin from the TingPNG team. It is a community plugin.**

This project uses Typescript to provide type checking and documentation.
The repo depends on the latest plugin API (obsidian.d.ts) in Typescript Definition format, which contains TSDoc comments describing what it does.
## Installation

**Note:** The Obsidian API is still in early alpha and is subject to change at any time!
You can install the Obsidian TingPNG Plugin by following these steps:

This sample plugin demonstrates some of the basic functionality the plugin API can do.
1. Download 3 files: `main.js`, `manifest.json`, `styles.css` from the [latest release](https://github.com/ckt1031/obsidian-tinypng-plugin/releases/latest).
2. Create a folder named "obsidian-tinypng-plugin" in your Obsidian vault's plugins folder.
3. Once the plugin is installed, activate it by toggling the switch next to its name.

- Adds a ribbon icon, which shows a Notice when clicked.
- Adds a command "Open Sample Modal" which opens a Modal.
- Adds a plugin setting tab to the settings page.
- Registers a global click event and output 'click' to the console.
- Registers a global interval which logs 'setInterval' to the console.
## Configuration

## First time developing plugins?
To configure the TingPNG plugin, you need to provide your API key and set the concurrency options. Here's how you can do it:

Quick starting guide for new plugin devs:
1. Open the settings in Obsidian.
2. Go to the "Plugins" section and find the TingPNG plugin.
3. **Enter your API key** from [Tinify](https://tinify.com/dashboard/api) in the corresponding field.
4. Choose the desired **concurrency level** from the options provided.
5. Click the "Save" button to save your settings.

- Check if [someone already developed a plugin for what you want](https://obsidian.md/plugins)! There might be an existing plugin similar enough that you can partner up with.
- Make a copy of this repo as a template with the "Use this template" button (login to GitHub if you don't see it).
- Clone your repo to a local development folder. For convenience, you can place this folder in your `.obsidian/plugins/your-plugin-name` folder.
- Install NodeJS, then run `npm i` in the command line under your repo folder.
- Run `npm run dev` to compile your plugin from `main.ts` to `main.js`.
- Make changes to `main.ts` (or create new `.ts` files). Those changes should be automatically compiled into `main.js`.
- Reload Obsidian to load the new version of your plugin.
- Enable plugin in settings window.
- For updates to the Obsidian API run `npm update` in the command line under your repo folder.
## Usage

## Releasing new releases
To compress images using the TingPNG plugin, follow these steps:

- Update your `manifest.json` with your new version number, such as `1.0.1`, and the minimum Obsidian version required for your latest release.
- Update your `versions.json` file with `"new-plugin-version": "minimum-obsidian-version"` so older versions of Obsidian can download an older version of your plugin that's compatible.
- Create new GitHub release using your new version number as the "Tag version". Use the exact version number, don't include a prefix `v`. See here for an example: https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-sample-plugin/releases
- Upload the files `manifest.json`, `main.js`, `styles.css` as binary attachments. Note: The manifest.json file must be in two places, first the root path of your repository and also in the release.
- Publish the release.
1. Open Obsidian and navigate to the vault where your images are located.
2. Press `Ctrl/Cmd + P` to open the command palette.
3. Search for "Compress Images" and select it from the list.
4. The plugin will start compressing the images using the provided API key and concurrency options.
5. Once the compression is complete, you will see a notification with the results.

> You can simplify the version bump process by running `npm version patch`, `npm version minor` or `npm version major` after updating `minAppVersion` manually in `manifest.json`.
> The command will bump version in `manifest.json` and `package.json`, and add the entry for the new version to `versions.json`
**Note: Make sure to review the TingPNG terms of service and API usage limits before using the plugin.**

## Adding your plugin to the community plugin list
## Feedback and Support

- Check https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases/blob/master/plugin-review.md
- Publish an initial version.
- Make sure you have a `README.md` file in the root of your repo.
- Make a pull request at https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases to add your plugin.
If you encounter any issues with the TingPNG plugin or have suggestions for improvements, please reach out to the community for support.

## How to use

- Clone this repo.
- `npm i` or `yarn` to install dependencies
- `npm run dev` to start compilation in watch mode.

## Manually installing the plugin

- Copy over `main.js`, `styles.css`, `manifest.json` to your vault `VaultFolder/.obsidian/plugins/your-plugin-id/`.

## Improve code quality with eslint (optional)

- [ESLint](https://eslint.org/) is a tool that analyzes your code to quickly find problems. You can run ESLint against your plugin to find common bugs and ways to improve your code.
- To use eslint with this project, make sure to install eslint from terminal:
- `npm install -g eslint`
- To use eslint to analyze this project use this command:
- `eslint main.ts`
- eslint will then create a report with suggestions for code improvement by file and line number.
- If your source code is in a folder, such as `src`, you can use eslint with this command to analyze all files in that folder:
- `eslint .\src\`

## Funding URL

You can include funding URLs where people who use your plugin can financially support it.

The simple way is to set the `fundingUrl` field to your link in your `manifest.json` file:

```json
{
"fundingUrl": "https://buymeacoffee.com"
}
```

If you have multiple URLs, you can also do:

```json
{
"fundingUrl": {
"Buy Me a Coffee": "https://buymeacoffee.com",
"GitHub Sponsor": "https://github.com/sponsors",
"Patreon": "https://www.patreon.com/"
}
}
```
