Paste as file link
This plugin is used to paste the content of the clipboard as a link
to another file in the current vault.
The selected text will be used as an alias while a file link is created.
As an example, assume this is the text in your file:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.
After pasting my note to a selection, this will be updated to:
Lorem ipsum [[my note|dolor sit amet]]. // Wiki link
Lorem ipsum [dolor sit amet](my note.md) // Markdown link
The type of link is depending on your vault settings (settings > files and links).
If the clipboard contains no string or no file could be found, this plugin will do nothing and the usual paste will take place. If you have multiple files with the same name in your vault, a dialog will open so you can select the correct file.
Usage
- Copy the name of a note from your vault
- Select text in any document of your vault
- Paste the value from your clipboard (or use the command)
- Be happy that your selection became a link to your file with an alias :)
Installation
Manual installation: Copy the files main.js, manifest.json to your
vault VaultFolder/.obsidian/plugins/paste-as-file-link/.

Reason for this plugin
This plugin was created because I often write text and add links to my notes afterward. But every time I paste the name of the note, the text gets replaced and I have to create links with an alias by myself.
