My collection of silverbullet-libraries

Mr.Red · October 12, 2025, 6:25pm

Because @malys brought to my attention that this is the official way to share/distribute libraries in SilverBullet.

Here is my collection of silverbullet-libraries-repo of useful widgets, functions & styles.

Currently there are only a few ones, but in the future I might upload more.

Available libraries

Admonitions_multilingual - Adds:united_kingdom: for custom admonitions
Custom_Width_and_Color_Tables - Adds custom color and width to your boring tables
DayProgressBar - Displays a Progress Bar with time left in Day
EmbedGoogleMapsWidget - it embeds Google Maps into a page as Widget
HeaderLevelToggle - Toggles header level using Shortcut keys
OpenWeatherMap_Widgets - OWM Weather widgets using slash commands
SearchBar_ModernStyle - Restyling of the “Find in Page” - Search Bar
SelectionToCodeblockToggle - Transforms Selection into a CodeBlock
TopPageBanner - Displays an embedded image on the top of the page
CodeBlock
UpdateSilverbulletLibraries - Updates Community Silverbullet-Libraries

You will also find at the end of each library the URL to the corresponding discussions.

Added a Weather Widget for OpenWeatherMaps to my silverbullet-libraries

github.com/Mr-xRed/silverbullet-libraries

OpenWeatherMap_Widgets.md

main

#meta

# Weather Widget for OpenWeatherMaps.org

## Configuration

Get your OpenWeatherMap API KEY from [OpenWeatherMap Website](https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys). If you don’t have one, you can get one with the free plan.
Setup your **apiKey** (required⚠️) and the other optional keys in your configuration page using:

```
config.set( "owm", {
            apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY",  --required ⚠️
            refresh = 30,             --optional (minutes)
            defLocation = "Berlin"    --optional (req. for def widget)
}) 
```

## Usage

You have three slash command options:

You will need a free OWM API_KEY for it to work, but I found it more reliable than other free weather API’s.

I think I over engineered the functions a little with three different slash commands.

Feel free to try it and leave your opinions below.

Better add a space _ after ? or use ?

and %s %s → %s%s :

local owm_weather = string.format("🌡️%.1f°C 💧%d%% 🍃%s%.0f km/h %s%s ℹ️%s 🌎%s,%s", owm.temp, owm.hum, owm.wdir, owm.wind, owm.icon, owm.cond, os.date("%H:%M", owm.timestamp), owm.city, owm.country )

Mr.Red · October 22, 2025, 1:22pm

can you send a screenshot how it looks on your display?

because on mine without space and with the “,” look the better imho:
Current:

your proposal:

and regarding the globe emoji, i didn’t wanted to be exclusive (and let the other half of the planet unrepresented )

that’s why i chose the more general & neutral globe:

ChenZhu-Xie · October 22, 2025, 4:42pm

Oh, maybe that’s font-related?
About , it is indeed better to choose interms of eleminating the ambiguity.

before:

after:

Not a big problem, some personal tweaking is ok.

Mr.Red · October 22, 2025, 5:20pm

yeah that looks definitely font related.

about the tweaking: i try to make the libraries updatable, so you don’t have to change anything inside the library, but that gave me an idea to cook up something. Maybe i could add some config.set options for the format too, so you can chose what is visible. I have something like this in mind:

temp = true,
hum = false,
wind = true,
last_cache = true,
location = false,
custom_emojis = {“”,“”,“”,“”,“”}

because not everybody wants to know the windspeed, last_cache time or humidity. this could make it much more customizable, and aligned with personal preferences.

I’ve been wondering lately and I’m genuinely curious how many of you are using my libraries regularly.

Since SilverBullet doesn’t collect any usage data and neither do my libraries, I don’t really have any insight into how many people are using them. The only feedback I usually get comes from bug reports

Here you can find My Repository

So I’d really appreciate it if you could voluntarily take a moment to fill out this poll and select all the libraries that you have installed and use frequently.

Which of my libraries have you installed and use frequently? (Multiple selection)
