Macro to auto-embed a block to the page of a tag

[mentaloid]

• Inspiration
  • Possible to Automatically embed Block in other page (maybe feature request?)
  • Make custom macros that replace themselves with their value on first run
• Usage
  • Typing something like {{emref tagname}} should:
    • replace it with #tagname
    • append an embedding of the current block at the end of page tagname
• Preparation
  • Add a macro inside file config.edn , inside macros{} :

    :emref "<span class='kit' data-kit='embedreference' data-name='$1'>$1</span>"
    

  • The code below requires having kits inside file custom.js .
  • Inside page EmbedReference in Logseq, put the following code in a javascript code-block:

    logseq.kits.setStatic(function embedreference(span){
        const blockId = span.closest(".ls-block").getAttribute("blockid")
        const content = logseq.api.get_block(blockId).content
        const macroStart = content.indexOf("{{" + span.closest(".macro").dataset.macroName)
        const macroEnd = content.indexOf("}}", macroStart) + 2
        const tagname = span.dataset.name
        logseq.api.append_block_in_page(tagname, "{{embed ((" + blockId + "))}}")
        logseq.api.update_block(blockId, content.slice(0, macroStart) + "#" + tagname + content.slice(macroEnd))
    });
