ignore workspace if it doesn't exist.

hi, i use one neovim and obsidian.lua config file on both home and work computers. I have defined two workspaces iCloud (home) and OneDrive (work). I can't install iCloud drive on work computer so obsidian.nvim complains if i open nvim at work. can i configure it in a way that if the workspace folder doesn't exist it just skips that without mkdir error?

Hey @azinsharaf, I would recommend dynamically setting your workspace config. For example:

local Path = require("plenary.path")

local workspaces = {}

if Path:new("/path/to/onedrive/workspace"):exists() then
  table.insert(workspaces, { path = "...", ... })
end

require("obsidian").setup({ workspaces = workspaces, ... })

That all looks fine to me. When you run the quick switch command are there any warnings/errors in :messages? If I had to guess, I'd say you should see something like "error: no picker configured".

omg! very smart. I had turned off messages so running the command shows rg executable not found.

ripgrep (rg) is a lot more versatile than fzf as we can use it for both content and filename searches. It's also compatible with every major OS, is easy to install, and is incredibly fast.

It's nice that telescope supports using different backend tools like fzf, but that's outside the scope for obsidian.nvim.

[azinsharaf]

installing rg fixed it.

@epwalsh

Is it possible to use global variables for the path dir? I cannot make it correct after a few attempts...
