Got Dataviewjs working (wooo!), now, how to group by?

[pe-wu]

Grouping by Project works beautifully without the Metadata API:

for (let group of dv.pages('#wakeout_task and -"Templates"').groupBy(p => p.project)) {
    dv.header(3, group.key);
    dv.table(["Task", "Summary", "Urgency"],
        group.rows
            .sort(k => k.urgency, 'desc')
            .map(k => [k.file.link, k.summary, k.urgency]))
}

However, my code is returning errors when I add the groupBy loop:

for (let group of dv.pages('#wakeout_task and -"Templates"').groupBy(p => p.project)) {
const {fieldModifier:f} = this.app.plugins.plugins["metadata-menu"].api;

dv.table(["Task","Urgency","Importance","Summary","Status"],
    dv.header(3, group.key);

await Promise.all(await dv.pages("#wakeout_task").map(async p => [
p.file.link, 
await f(dv,p,"urgency"),
await f(dv,p,"importance"),
p.summary,
await f(dv,p,"task_status")
])
))
}
;

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi
this function is not async anymore so you can remove the async calls
And there were some issues with your code, could this work for you?:

const {fieldModifier:f} = this.app.plugins.plugins["metadata-menu"].api;

for (let group of dv.pages('#wakeout_task and -"Templates"').groupBy(p => p.project)) {
    dv.header(3, group.key);
    dv.table(
       ["Task","Urgency","Importance","Summary","Status"],
       dv.pages("#wakeout_task").map(p => [
           p.file.link, 
           f(dv,p,"urgency"),
           f(dv,p,"importance"),
           p.summary,
           f(dv,p,"task_status")
       ])
    )
};

Awesome, thanks for our help already!
It seems it’s almost working. It’s grouping alright, but it’s showing all the links in every group.
So I currently have 35 files and 7 groups. Each group is showing 35 links.

Any idea of what’s going on?
