The WITHOUT ID grammar is to get rid of the hard-coded "File" field if you want to use something else, it's not a filter operator.

If you want to filter, you probably want the filter function:

TABLE filter(file.inlinks, (l) => l != [[Link To MOC]]) AS "Links", ...

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I might want this. To be specified, I just want to control the content of table. Like I said before, in order to realize the connection of each file, I would love to do it with the help of dv. However, if all the files are connected to the MOC, and the filter might filter everything, then I won't see anything from the table. So I just need to let the MOC don't show up in file.inlink column.

Furthermore, when I insert a picture in the file, the name of the png will show up in the outlink column too. To focus on the link between points, I also want to exclude this kind of information.

Thank you for your hard work!

I'm not fully understanding what you are looking for. The brief example I gave will, for each file, list all of it's incoming links except a specific MOC. Is it not giving the output you want?

Image links showing up in file.outlinks is a bug; I will fix it for the next release.

Emm, sorry to bother you. I did copy the code to my ob, and changed the content of [[Link to MOC]] to the name of my MOC. Still the MOC will appear in my file.inlink column. Did I use it in the wrong way? Thank you for your patience.

Can you share the exact query you are using? I was able to filter out the MOC when I tried doing this locally, so it may be a difference in our queries.

I called it SoilMachinicsMOC. So I use the code below.
dataview TABLE filter(file.inlinks, (l) => l != [[SoilMachinicsMOC]]) AS "Links",title,tags,aliases,file.inlinks,file.outlinks,file.link from "Soil" where contains(tags,"Machinics")

Though, it still show up in table.

You have file.inlinks in the table twice - once as the filtered column ("Links"), and then again later on without the filter. Is there a reason for having both? You should only need the first one.

For context, filter only affects the value you are filtering, not other columns. So

TABLE filter(file.inlinks, (l) => l != [[Link]]), file.inlinks

Will only filter the first column, not the second one.

Thank you, now I see the way of using it. According to your guide, I rewrite it below, put the file.inlinks column to the fourth.

TABLE 
title,tags,aliases,filter(file.inlinks, (4)=>4 != [[SoilMachinicsMOC]]) AS "Links",file.outlinks,file.link
from "Soil"
where contains(tags,"Machinics")

Then it comes back to me with error.

Expected one of the following: '(', 'null', boolean, date, duration, file link, list ('[1, 2, 3]'), negated field, number, object ('{ a: 1, b: 2 }'), string, variable

Could you please help with this error? Much appreciate it!

This is a little advanced, which is why it may be confusing - the error is in the 4; instead of 4, use x (the thing you replaced with 4 is a variable, which cannot start with a number).

TABLE 
title,tags,aliases,filter(file.inlinks, (x)=>x != [[SoilMachinicsMOC]]) AS "Links",file.outlinks,file.link
from "Soil"
where contains(tags,"Machinics")

Thank you, now I correct my dataview code and it works! I noticed dataview was updated to 0.4.8, yet the name of the png still show up in the outlink column. I am looking forward to seeing it fixed.

Again, thank you for your amazing work!

I'd love if we get .file.allOutlinks that also include dangling links and images and web links, and then the old .file.outlinks that are just the regular wikilinks to files.

This quirk bit me in the butt today when I tried to do an outlinks.every(l => dv.page(l.path))

Hello,

The file.outlinks is still showing links to attached documents (images, email...) and not only between .md files, is it still planned to correct it ? Or is there a new outlinks metadata to exclude it ?

Thanks !

Hi!

It seems they're still there (or maybe again?). I tried to filter them out using

filter(file.outlinks, (x) => !contains(x,".png"))

That didn't work either. Any idea welcome.

Hey!

I got i working with filter(file.outlinks, (x) => !contains(string(x), "png"))

Hope that helps!

How to write filter(file.outlinks, (x) => !contains(string(x), "png")) for dataviewjs?

I tried:

dv.filter(dv.current().file.outlinks, (x) => !contains(string(x), "png"))

shows error: TypeError: dv.filter is not a function

And I can't see a documentation on filter in dataviewjs... where can I find that?

dv.current().file.outlinks.where(x => !x.path.endsWith("png"))

dv.current().file.outlinks.where(x => !x.path.endsWith("png"))

Thank you @AB1908! that worked!

Hey, btw, is there a documentation for these codes? Like, where did you find the path.endsWith() function? I am a bit new to this so don't really know where to look. Would appreciate the guidance ^^

That's just regular javascript. Use MDN. Also, toying around in the developer console is supremely helpful.

dv.current().file.outlinks.where(x => !x.path.endsWith("png"))

sorry guys, i'm pretty new to all the languages that are used in Obsidian. How do i use this snippet?

this is my Querry so far:

TABLE WITHOUT ID
	file.link AS "Dateiname", dateformat(file.mtime, "HH:mm D") AS "Bearbeitet", file.outlinks AS "Linkt zu"

WHERE !contains(file.outlink, ".png")

SORT
	file.mtime desc

"WHERE !contains(file.outlink, ".png")" does not work atm.

I'm a little confused, how is showing links to images in queries a bug? If I linked to an image, it should show up in links.

Did you mean embedded images are showing up as links?
