Obsidian Plugin for Auto-Load a Link Title

What is the difference to the original implementation? 🤨

This project is forked from obsidianmd/obsidian-sample-plugin and has several benefits over the original implementation:

1. We do not use the external service api.linkpreview.net to get web page titles. Instead, we load the original page and extract <title> from its HTML structure.
2. We reviewed this plugin to ensure it does not leak any personal information from your private notes to the outside. It was the main reason to fork and have a frozen version of the plugin, to be sure that it won't have some update that may hurt your privacy.

Automatically Title New Links

This plugin automatically fetches the webpage to extract link titles when they're pasted, creating a markdown link with the correct title set.

For example:

When pasting https://github.com/zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title the plugin fetches the page and retrieves the title, resulting in a paste of: [zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title: Automatically fetch the titles of pasted links](https://github.com/zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title)

Add Titles To Existing Raw URLs

Additionally, using ctrl-shift-e (Windows) or cmd-shift-e (OS X) you can enhance an existing raw link to a markdown formatted link with the proper title.

If your text cursor is within the url https://github.com/zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title pressing ctrl-shift-e or cmd-shift-e converts the text to [zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title: Automatically fetch the titles of pasted links](https://github.com/zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title)

Overwrite Titles Of Existing Markdown Links

Additionally, using ctrl-shift-e (Windows) or cmd-shift-e (OS X) you can overwrite an existing title of a markdown link with the fetched title from the url.

If your text cursor is within [some plugin](https://github.com/zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title) pressing ctrl+shift+e fetches the sites title and replaces it, resulting in [zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title: Automatically fetch the titles of pasted links](https://github.com/zolrath/obsidian-auto-link-title)

Mobile Pasting

In order to paste the URL ensure you perform the Tap and Hold -> Paste action to paste the URL into your document.

Gboard

Google's Gboard keyboard has a Clipboard helper shortcut above the keyboard to quickly paste. Due to the implementation of that feature, it does not trigger the paste event, preventing this plugin from interacting with the text.
