GPX tracks?

[matthewturk]

Hi! This is awesome. I have a janky way of importing my activities (see an image-less description on my blog) that creates notes for each one using obsidian-leaflet on the GPX(.gz) tracks.

Do you think it would be possible to augment this with downloading the GPX tracks as well, so that I could try to port my system over to using this instead?

Hey @matthewturk, thanks a lot for your kind feedback, and apologies for taking so long to come back to you! I'd noticed your blog post of course, in researching this plugin, and found it to be a very interesting source of ideas 🙂.

When you opened this issue, I thought, "nice idea, I'll add that feature and come back to him when it's done". But then I started to realize that it wasn't going to be quite as straightforward as I'd hoped, and time got away from me.

What slowed me down was mainly:

1. Reservations about the scope of what this tool (and to some degree Obsidian) should do
2. Aiming to keep the CSV backup import and Web API sync consistent (one has GPX files, the other has an encoded polyline)
3. Problems with the obsidian-leaflet plugin

I did end up producing some code, though, for what it's worth: #6. I've added more implementation detail there in case you're interested.
