devonthesofa_obsidian-note-status/scripts

Installation and Usage

1. Install dependencies:

    npm install commander

2. Install tsx for executing TypeScript directly:

    npm install -g tsx

3. Run the script:

    tsx generate-test-vault.ts --count 40000 --output ./test-vault

Script Options

• --count or -c: Number of notes to generate (default: 40000)
• --output or -o: Output directory path (default: ./test-vault)
• --tag-prefix or -t: Status tag prefix (default: obsidian-note-status)
• --depth or -d: Maximum folder depth (default: 5)
• --max-per-folder or -m: Maximum files per folder (default: 200)

Performance Considerations

The script creates a realistic vault structure with:

• Multiple folder levels
• Random distribution of notes across folders
• Variety of statuses including single and multiple status notes
• Varied note content length and structure
• Proper frontmatter format matching your plugin's expectations

This will let you test real-world performance issues with your plugin without needing to manually create thousands of notes.
