The development is supported by - a service that allows you to publish your Roam notes as a beautiful static website (digital garden)
Based on Observable runtime
Create a javascript
code block in Roam and write Observable style JS code in it.
Use one of the shortcuts below to execute it.
<Cmd+Enter>
Run current cell<Alt+Enter>
Run current cell and create a new one below<Cmd+Shift+Enter>
Run all cells in the active notebook
By default, the current page considered to be an "active notebook", i.e., when you press <Cmd+Shift+Enter>
, all blocks on the current page get executed.
You can designate a smaller portion of the page to be the active notebook by referencing the page [[iroam/notebook]] in the parent block, i.e. all blocks nested under this blocks will get run when pressing <Cmd+Shift+Enter>
, but no other.
Each notebook lives in an isolated Observable environment (Observable runtime module)
You can import dependencies/shared code from:
- public Observable notebooks: https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/introduction-to-imports
- NPM: https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/require
- Install Roam plugin via the following code-block
/** iroam - Interactive computation in Roam
* Author: Vlad Sitalo
* Docs: https://github.com/Stvad/iroam
*/
window.iroamSettings = {
/** There might some important settings here in the future,
* make sure to check the docs once in a while.
*/
}
var iroamID = "iroam-script";
var oldiroam = document.getElementById(iroamID);
if (oldiroam) oldiroam.remove();
var iroam = document.createElement('script');
iroam.type = "text/javascript";
iroam.id = iroamID;
iroam.src = "https://i.roam.garden/iroam.js";
iroam.async = true;
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(iroam);
- Add a CSS block with the content of this file to make the result blocks look nicer.
- Execution of the whole notebook would fail if some of the code blocks are in collapsed state
- Currently, relies on a custom version of https://github.com/Stvad/roam-client to provide better Roam data interfaces/reactivity
If you want to develop this plugin, you need to clone this repository, run npm install
or yarn install
and then npm run dev
yarn run dev
. The final script will be hosted at localhost:1234/iroam.js
(or something else, the bundler will tell you), so you should replace the src
of the script in Roam with that.
