Accessing a folder in iCloud Drive

[Eric Weir]

With Vim Anywhere I can compose and edit markdown files in my Obsidian Vault which I have in iCloud Drive.

I would like to use Vim for composing, editing, organizing of long longer form documents. But the iCloud Drive folder is buried deep in the Library folder.

How can I make it directly accessible?

Emm, for example, I think you could just have a mapping like:

nmap <Leader>n :e ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/iCloud~md~obsidian/Documents/Notes/Name-Of-Your-Vault/<CR>

Best,

Since we're talking about vim and Obsidian I just wanted to throw out that the vim mode in Obsidian works really well IMO. You're probably already using it when using Obsidian itself but if not definitely check it out!

Thanks. I have it. Had a difficult time getting my few simple basic mappings accepted. In the end it turned out to be really simple. But that’s all I can say about it. I don’t remember HOW I did it.

Since you’re into Vim and Obsidian another question: Before getting into Obsidian I used markdown links to link notes/files. In Obsidian I initially continued with that but was ultimately persuaded that using wiki links was simpler. But when opened in Vim wiki links are not active.Perhaps there’s a way to use wiki links in Vim too. Perhaps you know how to do that. Meantime I will see what I can find about that on the web.
