Do you understand their plugin system? Do you think it would be possible?

I never look at it before.

I see they have an API and all is build in JS, so it should be quite easy for our NDK army.

This would be siccckkk I 💜 Joplin

What do you think a Nostr plugin could do?

I've just installed this app, but I don't find a place to browse and install plugins on the UI.

Collaborative note editing, or even a simple option to publish Joplin notes to relays

This.

For collaborative I would start simple, sharing with read/write permission (and a proper locking mode). Real-time multi editing is complex and overrated, seeing the other cursor and live updates in read mode is enough, imho.

This, please. I already use Joplin to edit my longer Nostr notes before posting on mobile. Joplin being Nostr native would be amazing.

I used to use Joplin extensively when I was in school or worked as a consultant. I have gotten away from it lately in favor of Confluence at work, but would totally use it as a Nostr client.

The Joplin app itself has improved tremendously in the past ~5 years

Can you read stuff from Nostr from inside Joplin? Does that make sense?

Not currently, that I know of. But that type of feature totally makes sense.

Joplin is sort of like EverNote with a lot of additional features… so I see the main value add as leveraging the existing document editing functionality to compose Nostr notes.

Collaboration features would also be sick, but probably a lot more complicated.

Joplin also has good support for code blocks and LaTeX fwiw

Yes, I'm not asking if it exists, I'm asking if it would be possible to make such a plugin that spontaneously opens a websocket to relays and slurps in some notes.

Sorry, I don’t know enough about how Joplin is built to answer.

My guess is this would be non-trivial, as there currently are no social media or collaboration features.

Their dev community is active and responsive - I have opened issues and requested features in the past.

Maybe a sort of read-later, you react with specific emoji and the note, *with all the assets*, is backuped up in Joplin.

For me this would be extremely useful.

Oh, but then you are talking about a running service that runs in someone's cloud and injects stuff into your Joplin? I thought it was a local desktop note-taking app.

A service is an option (it supports sync), but we don't need it. The plugin could just REQ all my reactions, filter them and do the fetch/backup.

That's what I was asking if it was possible. If the plugin system has a way for us to do that.

Plugins are JS, we have JS Nostr libs, I don't see why shouldn't be possible. But I never wrote a Joplin plugin, so it is just a speculation.

Or with the same logic, the possibility to append/prepend a note to a single Joplin note.

Currently I have a (not nostr related) script to do this for some logging purpose:

sqlite3 /..../joplin-desktop/database.sqlite <

Are you on mobile? Plugins unlucky are not supported yet.

No, desktop. I am probably just bad at finding things.
