1.5.0-beta.1 (2025-01-24)

Release notes (beta)

switches to the “export” API, which makes the document and summary available, adds additional metadata (created, updated, and (last) highlighted date across the board) - #39,
adds documentation to the different templates within the plugin options in Obsidian,
implements two additional nunjucks filters (is_qa, qa) which can be used to parse and reassemble “Q & A” blocks defined with the .qa action tag in a note,
includes improvements for title and author as well as sanitized_title and authorStr when used in the frontmatter template
adds a feature to deduplicate items (locally and remotely), using the unique Readwise URL in frontmatter
implements features to parse, keep, and protect frontmatter on updates (needed for deduplication, but useful to keep additional fields around when updating),
driven by the needs of these two features, validates the frontmatter template in the settings UI to make sure we can use it when the plugin is run,
implements a feature to slugify - #27
uses filenamify to create valid filenames and limit them to 255 characters - #37
adds the relevant additional documentation

In terms of housekeeping, this patch

implements a semantic-release workflow, using the brianrodri/semantic-release-obsidian-plugin, which can be used to deploy semantic versions, including beta releases
adds local deploy and release actions, as well as a GitHub workflow that automatically runs a release on the master resp. main branches (Since incorporating this, I've moved the semantic-release config into a separate .realeaserc.yaml to stop polluting package.json and I also removed committing manifest.json, versions.json and package[-lock].json as this (not suprisingly) created quite a bit of issues when merging branches).
restructures the code to make it more modular (separating settings from the main class),
