Obsidian Plugin Update: "Dataview" Plugin Released with New Features

Hey everyone! This week, we're excited to announce the release of a new update for the "Dataview" plugin. The latest version, 0.5.47, brings several exciting features and improvements that will enhance your Obsidian experience.

What's New?

The Dataview plugin is an essential tool for anyone who wants to take their note-taking to the next level. With this update, you can now:

• Improve date + duration behavior when either the date or duration are null.
• Enhance performance and stability.

These changes aim to provide a smoother experience while working with dates and durations in your Dataview queries.

Using the Public API

The public API used by the plugin to check for updates is now available for anyone to use. This can be helpful for alerting users about updates in a custom way or for integrating the update feature into other plugins.

You can access the API by making a POST request to https://jc5gpa3gs7o2uge6iq5mgjd53q0daomi.lambda-url.us-east-1.on.aws with the following JSON payload:

{
    "currentPluginVersions": [
        {
            "obsidianPluginId": "dataview",
            "version": "0.5.44"
        },
        {
            "obsidianPluginId": "obsidian-excalidraw-plugin",
            "version": "1.7.25" }
    ]
}

The response will contain information on the 10 latest versions of the plugin that are greater than the version requested.

API Privacy

As always, we're committed to maintaining your privacy while using the API. We only collect necessary information needed for the plugin to function. Currently, that's your list of installed plugins and their versions. AWS also automatically collects your IP which I have no way of disabling.
