Table View: Filtering on Date Fields

[MangoPG]

Howdy,

Ok, I am so sorry to be having to write this - I have spent an age trying my hardest to find a solution to this, multiple different times.

What Am I Trying To Do?

Use the table view to have the following views

• Tasks scheduled this week
• Tasks scheduled next week
• Tasks scheduled this month

I would like to use the mdm inline tables, I think they are great, but without the filtering - they are useless to me.

My Knowledge Level

Coding is not something I am proficient in, I have an interest and have written some very basic things in python.

However understanding documentation, is incredibly challenging for me at times due to missing the basic understanding that is inherently expected by the author.

What Have I Tried?

I honestly can't answer this to the fullest as I have tried a heap of things, but I have read through (not fully understood) your api section about 10 times, I have read the dataview data to try and cobble something together.

I searched the obsidian forums, but people seem to be only using dataviewjs, and as stated I want to use the mdm table.

I found this in the issues tab of this project

I have even broke down and attempted to use copilot - this was not helpful.

So this is why I am now asking here.

My latest attempt is:
This is to try and return this months data
return dv.date(value.month) === dv.date('now').month

I get this error: Evaluation Error: TypeError Cannot read properties of null (reading 'month')

I don't like to ask people to do the work for me ever, and I know this is basically what I am asking here - it does pain me greatly that I have not found how to structure this formula / code to filter on date in mdm.

So if you know where I have missed the how to on this, or don't mind helping me with the formula - please pretty please do! 😄

Thank you in advance,

Mango
