A Logseq plugin that retrieves common information based on the last term of an editing block.

URL+ Plugin for Logseq

URL+ is a Logseq plugin written in ClojureScript with shadow-cljs as the main tooling.

The plugin retrieves common information based on the last term of an editing block.

If the last term is a valid URL, metadata or API response is fetched, then the block is modified by applying a selected template. The plugin could also fetch compact dictionary definition of a word term, or attach a few useful links to it.

Why Another URL Formatter?

• Prefer slash command / over autoformat
• Need more formatting templates beyond the default [title](url). Customizable templates in plan
• Works for block with multiple terms and even multiline. The plugin only considers the last term without other content in the active editing block
• Presist URL metadata or API response in graph
