ObsidianTransport.registerVault

ObsidianTransport › registerVault

Type: (vaultPath: string) => Promise<void>

Registers a vault path so Obsidian can target it.

On desktop: uses Electron IPC to open the vault and polls for readiness. On mobile: pushes only a minimal .obsidian marker so the folder is recognized as a vault, points the app's localStorage at it, and reloads.

It does **not** carry the vault's contents across on either platform — that is ObsidianTransport.pushFiles' job, which TemporaryVault.register runs first. A caller driving a transport directly has to push before registering, or the app opens an empty vault with nothing raised to say so.
