<p>Menschen und ihre Persoenlichkeiten sind nicht statisch. Wir veraendern uns im Laufe unserer Leben. Mehr oder weniger, aber wir alle tun das. Wir durchlaufen unterschiedliche Arten und Level von Veraenderungen. Auch unsere Sexualitaet kann sich veraendern. So kann es passieren, dass ein Aspekt unserer Sexualitaet, der frueher vielleicht nur zart schimmerte, irgendwann viel praesenter ist - vielleicht macht dieser Aspekt nun unsere Sexualitaet ploetzlich vordergruendig aus.

Andere Aspekte hingegen koennen ihre Wichtigkeit oder ihren Reiz verlieren - oder beides....</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|

</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>
|
||||

||||

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>
|
||||

||||

||||

|
||||
</figcaption>
|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>

|

and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<p>Menschen und ihre Persoenlichkeiten sind nicht statisch. Wir veraendern uns im Laufe unserer Leben. Mehr oder weniger, aber wir alle tun das. Wir durchlaufen unterschiedliche Arten und Level von Veraenderungen. Auch unsere Sexualitaet kann sich veraendern. So kann es passieren, dass ein Aspekt unserer Sexualitaet, der frueher vielleicht nur zart schimmerte, irgendwann viel praesenter ist - vielleicht macht dieser Aspekt nun unsere Sexualitaet ploetzlich vordergruendig aus.

Andere Aspekte hingegen koennen ihre Wichtigkeit oder ihren Reiz verlieren - oder beides....</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

||||

||||

|
||||
</figcaption>
|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

||||

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

||||

||||

|
||||
</figcaption>
|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<description>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that&rsquo;s quite important to me is note taking. I&rsquo;m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task.</description>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

||||

||||

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

||||

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

||||

||||

|
||||
</figcaption>
|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

||||

|

</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

||||

|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

||||

||||

|
||||
</figcaption>
|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>

<description>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that&rsquo;s quite important to me is note taking. I&rsquo;m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task.</description>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have got an iPhone a while ago and (of course) things are a little bit different compared to android devices. On an iPhone the ability to access data of an app from another app is not necessarily given and one thing that’s quite important to me is <em>note taking</em>. I’m not a person who takes tons of notes (yet), but note taking becomes more and more important to me. Of course there are tons of different ways and apps for this task. Obsidian is one of those apps and it is very popular. To be honest I started with <a href="https://anytype.io" target="_blank">anytype</a>
|
||||
which I like a lot in many ways, but for multiple reasons I decided to try out obsidian instead and it turned out it fits much better.</p>
|
||||
<p>Obsidian stores its data in so called <em>vaults</em> wich can be understood as containers or namespaces. They’re represented as a folder in the file system and the data itself is stored in markdown files. The configuration is stored in .json files inside a hidden folder in the root of each vault, which is <em>.obsidian</em> by default. I mention this because this will be relevant a little bit later.</p>
|
||||
<p>I work a lot on desktop computers and laptops and I would like to keep my obsidian clients synchronized over multiple devices. But for me note taking is also important to have on mobile devices, because I may need my notes when my phone is the only computer I have access to. There are quite a few ways to synchronize obisidian’s data. The sync with iCloud is not really an option for me. Obsidian sync is another option, but I prefer to store my data on my servers if possible. Somebody in my fedivers bubble mentioned <em>obsidian-livesync</em> a few days ago, which is based on a coucheDB server. Great, but just another DB-server for synchronizing markdown files? There are many tutorials out there about synchronization with git and I like git a lot. I tried out a few ways with several apps, but I won’t go into detail about those ways that didn’t work, but rather describe what works for me.</p>
|
||||
<p>The app I use as git client is <a href="https://workingcopy.app/" target="_blank">Working Copy</a>
|
||||
and I chose this one, because it provides a way to link a repository to the data directory of another app on my iPhone. In the screenshots that follow you will see that the setup is already done, so I don’t start a new/fresh one for this post and now I just give a short overview of the steps:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Create a new vault in your obsidian on iOS<br>
|
||||
(only in special cases <strong>not</strong> necessary)</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the config folder of the vault</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new git repository</li>
|
||||
<li>Clone the git repository using working copy</li>
|
||||
<li>Link the repository to your Obsidian folder</li>
|
||||
<li>Add content and synchronize it</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>So first… when you don’t have a vault yet, or when you have one with a default config folder (which is .obsidian)… you have to create a new vault. In case of existing vaults you can later copy all the contents, but you need a vault that a different config folder set from the beginning.<br>
|
||||
After you created your new vault enter it, open the sidebar on the left and tap the gear symbol right next to its name on top to open the settings menu. Tap “<em>About</em>” scroll down until you find the entry “<em>Advanced</em>” and below that you should find “<em>Override config folder</em>” with an input field. Here you can enter a name that you like and that’s different from <em>.obsidian</em>. I for example used <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>. You have to relaunch obsidian afterwards.</p>
|
||||
<p>If you have not already done so create a fresh git repo now on a git server of your choice. Also if you haven’t done already configure you <em>Working Copy</em> app so that you can access the repository and clone the fresh repo onto your device.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In the overview of the repositories in my <em>Working Copy</em> there are two repositories and the the top one is the one for my obsidian vault. Tap yours to open it.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>In this screenshot is already data shown in the repository on the left in the <em>sidebar</em>, which should not be the case when you start with a fresh one, but the relevant part of this screenshot is the part in the in the <em>main section</em> on top. There you should see at least a part of the name of the repo with a little <em>arrow</em> symbol next to it. Tap it to open a drop-down menu and search for the <em>Link repository to</em> entry. Tap it as well to open then the next nesting level of the menu.</p>

|
||||
|
||||
<p>Below the <em>Link repository to</em> should be an entry called <em>Directory</em> - tap it. Now a file browser should open - navigate to “<em>On my iPhone</em> and there to the Obsidian folder that contains your vaults. I decided to just link to a single vault and not to sync all my other vaults - so mark the vault you would like to link to and tap “<em>Open</em>” in the top right corner. Now the files should already appear there… in this case the standard <em>.obsidian</em> folder and the new config folder <em>.obsidian.mobile</em>.</p>
|
||||
<p>At this point you can add content to your vault and each time you think you have state that you think is worth synchronizing just open your Working Copy app, commit and push. The configs of your mobile client are now stored in the <em>.obsidian.mobile</em> folder. This is important when you want to synchronize between a desktop client and mobile client, because a desktop client might have features that aren’t available in mobile clients and thus it could interfere your mobile client to access settings coing from there.</p>
|
||||
<p>That’s it. Happy synching.</p>
