Hey all, just started using org-roam recently and I’m finding it quite fun to dink about in and try and capture useful information and thoughts so thanks all for making a cool thing and building a useful community around it.
Anyway one thing I’m liking doing in my workflow is to just drop in org-roam-insert-immediate links as I’m going, to link to stuff that either exists or I want to exist later. wotjpit interrupting my typing and drag me into another topic fully.
However I wanted something to try and find these links later. Initially I poked org-roam-unlinked-references (see the manual) but it wasn’t quite doing it for me as it was doing a grep for just the current node, so I wrote a basic broken link scanning package which is at the minute called org-roam-sbl-show-broken-links.
It currently can either scan the current open buffer or the whole database. At the minute it only checks roam: and file: links for legitimacy, it does however know how to look in an .org file and determine if its “empty” if its just headers and whitespace (i.e. has been created by org-roam-insert-immediate) and its been built to be pretty extensible for easily teaching it how to parse other link types (I also think there’s probably an easier more general method involving using org-link to follow links but I’ve not found it yet)
Anyway hope that’s useful for anyone else, feedback welcome.
) so I might need next weekend -ish to come back to the Emacs stuff. I’ll let you know.
