`indexFolder` does not index links for some `[[wikiLinks]]`

[Jsmithrud37]

I've been experimenting with your library and discovered what appears to be a bug in indexFolder. When populating the links index, it skips [[wikiLink]] style links in cases where the wikiLink body !== relative file path.

This can be reproduced with a directory containing 2 files, separated by a level of directory hierarchy:

• Foo.md: "[[Bar]]"
• folder/Bar.md: ""

The resulting set of links indexed is 0 in this case, despite containing a valid [[wikiLink]], or at least a valid Obsidian-compatible wikiLink.

The function findFileToInsert in DatabaseUtils.ts seems to assume that the link target is a relative file path (excluding the extension), and will fail to recognize the wikiLink as a valid link, and the system will skip indexing it.

Whereas updating the above example to omit the sub-directory, i.e.,

• Foo.md: "[[Bar]]"
• Bar.md: ""

correctly results in a link being indexed.

I'm curious if this is a bug, or if this kind of Obsidian-compatible [[wikiLink]] is not supported?

@Jsmithrud37 good points. I think this is a bug in the code - we should be picking up those links.

I have found an error which seems related, but I am not sure:

<!-- in file "Reproducer" -->

- [ ] [[Reproducer]]

metadata field of Reproducer in the sqlite:

{
    "tags": [],
    "tasks": [
        {
            "checked": false,
            "completion": null,
            "created": null,
            "description": "",
            "due": null,
            "metadata": {},
            "scheduled": null,
            "start": null
        }
    ]
}

Note the description is empty, instead of containing one of:

• [[Reproducer]]
• Reproducer
• Some form of database link, for example the _id of Reproducer

The same issue is also present in the tasks field, if the link is surrounded by text, and regardless of if the file is in the root folder or not
