Templater integration

Daily Notes NG automatically detects and integrates with Templater when it’s installed.

How it works

When creating a periodic note:

  1. Daily Notes NG creates the file with the configured template
  2. If Templater is installed, it delegates template processing to Templater
  3. All Templater syntax (<% %> tags) is resolved by Templater’s engine
---
created: <% tp.file.creation_date() %>
week: <% moment(tp.file.title).format("gggg-[W]WW") %>
---
<< [[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD", -1, tp.file.title, "YYYY-MM-DD") %>]] | [[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD", 1, tp.file.title, "YYYY-MM-DD") %>]] >>


# <% moment(tp.file.title, "YYYY-MM-DD").format("dddd, MMMM D, YYYY") %>

The critical technique is passing the filename as a reference date to tp.date.now(), ensuring yesterday/tomorrow links calculate correctly even when creating past or future notes.
