Summary

See all your dangling links, great for cleaning up your vault

Code

This snippet allows you to see all your dangling links.

You can configure how many connections each link has to have before it shows up.

You can also exclude existing and non-existing files from showing up.

//how many links a non existing file should have at minimum
const count = 2;

//specify the full path here.
const ignoredExisting = ["your/ignored/notes/here.md"];

//keep these in lower case.
const ignoredNonExisiting = ["your non exisiting notes", "here is note that does not exist"];

let d = {};
function process(k, v) {
  Object.keys(v).forEach(function (x) {
    if(!ignoredNonExisiting.includes(x.toLowerCase())) {
        x = dv.fileLink(x);
        if (d[x]==undefined) { d[x] = []; }
        if(!ignoredExisting.includes(k)) {
            d[x].push(dv.fileLink(k));
        }
    }
  });
}

Object.entries(dv.app.metadataCache.unresolvedLinks)
    .filter(([k,v]) =Object.keys(v).length)
    .forEach(([k,v]) =process(k, v));
    
dv.table(["Non existing notes", "Linked from"],
         Object.entries(d)
         .filter(([k, v]) =v.length >= count)
	     .sort((a, b) =b[1].length - a[1].length)
         .map(([k,v]) =[k, v.join(" • ")]));
