[BUG] Android - TypeError: app.vault.adapter.getBasePath is not a function

Describe the bug I’m trying to run quickadd on my Android phone. I can find my macro that I’ve created (and verified that it works on desktop) but when I run it I get the following error:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: app.vault.adapter.getBasePath is not a function
    at getUserScript (eval at <anonymous> (app.js:1:1), <anonymous>:10399:41)
    at MacroChoiceEngine.executeUserScript (eval at <anonymous> (app.js:1:1), <anonymous>:11554:34)

Interestingly I get almost the same error when I try to hit the gear icon for the user script step in my macro.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open obsidian on and android phone
2. Open the command pallet
3. Type the name of your quickadd macro
4. See error

Expected behavior I expected it to run just like it does on desktop.

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10, macOS 11.6.2 (works on both)

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Pixel 3a

Additional context Let me know if there’s anything else I can offer or explain!

Thank you!

Found the issue. It’s line 167. I believe it stops working when it attempts to create a buffer.

I also found a working solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/26514148 Go to the ‘Cross Browser’ solution and use the Base64 object. Instead of creating a new buffer, you should just encode your credentials, e.g:

// ...
// Remember to grab the Base64 object!
const b = Base64.encode(Settings[API_USER_OPTION] + ":" + Settings[API_PASS_OPTION]);
const auth = "Basic " + b;

Hello,

I still get a QuickAdd.app.vault.adapter.getBasePath is not a function error on mobile, with Quickadd 0.5.0. Here is the issue with more details. (see Script 2)

Hi @Elaws,

I’ll respond in the issue you opened. getBasePath is not used in QuickAdd anymore, anywhere, as it doesn’t work on mobile.
