linkWelcome Note:

This part of the function retrieves the currently selected content from the note . This content is what the user has highlighted or selected in the app.

The selected content is stored in the variable textWithFormatting.

This content is logged to the console for debugging or informational purposes.

The content that is selected by the user will be included in the new note, formatted with additional information.

Prompts the user to choose a destination note where the selected content will be transferred.

The prompt displays a dialog to the user with an input field where they can type the name of the note they want to use.

The result, which includes the note's name and unique identifier (UUID), is captured and stored in the result variable.

The user selects the destination note, which determines where the selected content will be placed.

Processes the user's note selection by storing it in the noteName variable.

Logs the selected note's name and UUID to the console for verification and debugging purposes.

This information is crucial for inserting content into the correct note and for generating a link to the destination note.

Prepares the selected content for insertion into the new note by formatting it with additional elements.

Adds a horizontal line (---), the current date, and the selected content itself to create a formatted block of text.

Logs the formatted text to the console for review.

The formatted content will appear in the destination note with a clear separation from other content, including a timestamp.

Constructs a placeholder link to the newly created note where the formatted content will be inserted.

The link is formatted using Markdown syntax to display the note's name as a clickable link.

Logs the link to the console for debugging purposes.

The link to the new note will replace the original selection, providing a quick reference to the new content.

Inserts the formatted text into the selected destination note.

Uses the note's UUID to identify where the content should be inserted.

The textFinal variable contains the formatted text to be added.

The new note will contain the formatted content, including the horizontal lines and timestamp.

Replaces the original selection with a link to the destination note.

The selected content in the original location is replaced by the placeholder link created earlier.

The original selection will now show a link to the new note, facilitating easy access to the newly created content.

Signals the completion of the function's execution.

Returns null to indicate that the function has finished running.

The function execution is complete, and all intended actions have been performed.

July 22nd, 2024: Found the need to have some time tag or a section added to the destination location, where the data is getting moved into using the feature Extract to a note. It's very handy and useful tool. But I was handling this by adding a horizontal line and a date tag manually after moving to the new note! Found this could be automated using a Plugin. Hence build the basics of it.

Found out that my code leaves out all of the formatting and other things already existing the source note.

July 23rd, 2024: After reaching out to Support and Lucian, was able to get the workaround to get the requirement achieved. After a couple of tries and changes, was able to get the complete code working as expected.

July 28th, 2024: Adding readability by giving source replace-text constructions and destination insert-text constructions.

July 29th, 2024: Minor Formatting Tweaks, which support both single line extraction and also bullets extractions (without and with markdown formatting!)

November 24th, 2024: Added the Source location in the Destination reference. Now both-ways it is referenced and it is complete.

Minor Formatting Tweaks

May be even in the destination location, add the link of from where the data came from, source location.

Needs fix: If the selection starts with a link, then it has some trouble replacing the content.

Also add app.context.selectionContent to TextMagiQ - There are multiple good possibilities that can be manifested there too.
