List of commands

Inkdrop provides a bunch of commands to allow you to associate arbitrary interactions with the features. You can bind them with keystrokes, menu and context menu from plugins, the init file or keymap config file. Note that some commands like core:open-note require parameters so you have to invoke them programmatically with CommandRegistry like so:

inkdrop.commands.dispatch(document.body, 'core:open-note', {
  noteId: 'note:uugSvPq5r'
})
