# Save Obsidian console log

This plugin can redirect the log from the Obsidian developer console to a file, which can be useful for debugging plugins.
---
## Functionality
The implementation was blatantly stolen from [this gist](https://gist.github.com/liamcain/3f21f1ee820cb30f18050d2f3ad85f3f) by [Liam Cain](https://github.com/liamcain). Please assume all features are Liam’s and all bugs are mine.
When this plugin is enabled, this plugin will redirect the log from the Obsidian developer console to a file named `logs.txt` in the plugin's folder (i.e. `.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-save-console-log/logs.txt` within your vault).
On the desktop, this is probably not what you want, since you can access the console within Developer Tools by pressing Ctrl+Shift+I (on Mac, Option+Cmd+I). On mobile, I don’t know how to access the developer console easily, so the redirect can provide a way to view the log information.

## Installation
To install, either:
1. Install manually with the zip in [Releases](http://github.com/velebit/obsidian-save-console-log/releases), or
2. Once this plugin is available in Obsidian’s Community Plugin library (if it ever is), download it [from there](obsidian://show-plugin?id=obsidian-save-console-log)---
## Known Bugs and Interactions
- The console is redirected when the plugin is enabled, but it’s not restored when the plugin is disabled
- If you are using this plugin with a vault that uses Git, you probably want to add the log file path to your `.gitignore` file, so the log isn’t commited into Git:
```
/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-save-console-log/logs.txt
```
- The commit history prior to release 0.1.2 has been completely rewritten to
fix my author name having been set incorrectly. (Release 0.1.2 is otherwise
identical to 0.1.1.) I only thought I could get away with it because it’s
likely no one was using this. If you had checked out the repository before
2023-03-26, my apologies! It won’t happen again.
