Export Obsidian vaults into clean Markdown trees for publishing or downstream processing
Convert Obsidian vault content, wikilinks, and attachments into portable Markdown trees before publishing, indexing, or migrating notes.
Prerequisites
obsidian-export CLI and access to the source vault directory
Installation
Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- As a text interface, this must be run from a terminal or Windows PowerShell.
- Note that the destination directory must exist, so you may need to create a new, empty directory first.
- Some static site generators are picky about frontmatter and require it to be present.
Basic usage or getting-started notes:
docs directory and run generate.sh.
