# Obsidian Plugin Deploy Integration - Implementation Guide

> Full implementation details for the parent SKILL.md.

## Detailed Instructions

### Step 1: Configure Build Pipeline

```json
{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "node esbuild.config.mjs",
    "build": "tsc -noEmit -skipLibCheck && node esbuild.config.mjs production",
    "version": "node version-bump.mjs && git add manifest.json versions.json"
  }
}
```

```javascript
// esbuild.config.mjs
import esbuild from "esbuild";

const prod = process.argv[2] === "production";

await esbuild.build({
  entryPoints: ["main.ts"],
  bundle: true,
  external: ["obsidian", "electron", "@codemirror/*"],
  format: "cjs",
  target: "es2018",
  outfile: "main.js",
  sourcemap: prod ? false : "inline",
  minify: prod,
  treeShaking: true,
});
```

### Step 2: Version and Release Files

```json
// manifest.json
{
  "id": "my-plugin",
  "name": "My Plugin",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "minAppVersion": "1.4.0",
  "description": "Description of your plugin",
  "author": "Your Name",
  "isDesktopOnly": false
}
```

```json
// versions.json (maps plugin version to minimum Obsidian version)
{
  "1.0.0": "1.4.0"
}
```

### Step 3: GitHub Release Workflow

```yaml
name: Release Plugin
on:
  push:
    tags: ["*"]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: "20"
      - run: npm ci
      - run: npm run build

      - name: Create Release
        uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v2
        with:
          files: |
            main.js
            manifest.json
            styles.css
```

### Step 4: Submit to Community Plugins

```markdown
1. Fork https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases
2. Edit community-plugins.json, add your plugin entry:
   {
     "id": "my-plugin",
     "name": "My Plugin",
     "author": "Your Name",
     "description": "What it does",
     "repo": "username/my-plugin"
   }
3. Create a Pull Request
4. Wait for Obsidian team review (typically 1-2 weeks)
```

### Step 5: Version Bump Script

```javascript
// version-bump.mjs
import { readFileSync, writeFileSync } from "fs";

const targetVersion = process.env.npm_package_version;

// Update manifest.json
let manifest = JSON.parse(readFileSync("manifest.json", "utf8"));
const { minAppVersion } = manifest;
manifest.version = targetVersion;
writeFileSync("manifest.json", JSON.stringify(manifest, null, "\t"));

// Update versions.json
let versions = JSON.parse(readFileSync("versions.json", "utf8"));
versions[targetVersion] = minAppVersion;
writeFileSync("versions.json", JSON.stringify(versions, null, "\t"));
```
