Obsidian Note Timer

This plugin for Obsidian uses codeblocks to insert an interactive timer to your notes.

Features

Time individual notes and automatically keep an editable log of your times!

Usage

Add a code block timer to any note with the following:

```timer

```

You can adjust the features of all timers in the settings tab, but you can also fine tune individual timers :

```timer
log: true
ms: true
```

NOTE: Timer specific settings always take precedence over globally set settings.

Here are the available settings and their values

Setting	Values	Description
log	true or false	If true, adds the log button to the timer controls. Clicking this adds a new entry to your note's timer log markdown table. If false, removes the log button, and disallows logging for this timer.
ms	true or false	If true, timer displays as HH:MM:SS:sss. If false, timer displays without the fast updating millesconds. note: this option only changes the display, not the speed at which the timer runs.
ms	true or false	If true, timer displays as HH:MM:SS:sss. If false, timer displays without the fast updating millesconds. note: this option only changes the display, not the speed at which the timer runs.
startButtonText	text	Change the text in the Start Button
stopButtonText	text	Change the text in the Stop Button
resetButtonText	text	Change the text in the Reset Button
showResetButton	true or false	If true, timer keeps running after a reset. If false, the timer resets and stops without loging.

NOTE: As development continues, more features that are available in global settings will be added to timer specific settings

For Developers

This is my first plugin for Obsidian, and it has definitely been built with huge support from the community. Pull requests are welcomed and appreciated!

Feel free to let me know of any issues or concerns with this plugin or if you have a solution to any of the below:

Known Issues/Accidental Features

1. Multiple timers in one note all log to the same table

NOTE: bug 1 might be turned into a feature by allowing the user to declare log-ID: Special and then the function will search for the header ###### Special Timer Log, but as of right now the current behavior is unexpected.
