metadatamenu VS obsidian-db-folder

Metadata Menu plugin aim to fill that specific gap. It doesn't contain all your suggestions but you could make a FR if you feel like it

Sounds like you want https://mdelobelle.github.io/metadatamenu/ , what you are describing is similar to the tutorial videos where he builds a music library.

As a programmer you will really appreciate the Metadata Menu plugin. It adds the concept of classes (sort of) to Obsidian. demo 6: FileClass does exactly what you want. When you enable Dataview, Templater, and Metadata Menu plugins to Obsidian you essentially have a powerful object oriented database platform.

https://github.com/mdelobelle/metadatamenu Look for: Control field from dataview tables with dataviewjs in the docs

Metadata Menu might be what you are looking for.

The plugin I used in the video: Plugin to choose the color and the icons for the callouts: https://github.com/valentine195/obsidian-admonition - Plugin to create notes from a selected text: https://github.com/chhoumann/quickadd - Plugin to add a command in the left ribbon: https://github.com/phibr0/obsidian-commander - Plugin for templates: https://github.com/SilentVoid13/Templater - Plugin to manage fields on notes: https://github.com/mdelobelle/metadatamenu - Plugin to display filtered tables of your notes: https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview

✨For notes with a supercharged tag/fileclass definition, a Note's metadata button will be added right next to the note's link/tab header/file/backlink/star-result/search-result/... to access the note's metadata form without opening the note or navigating in the context menu. 👨🏻‍🎨 The Note's metadata button icon can be customized in the fileClass definition (from lucide.dev icons set). You can customize where these buttons are displayed or hidden in the settings. 🤝When used in combination with the Supercharged links plugin, you get a great understanding of what a note is about and great ease to manipulate its metadata from anywhere in your vault. 📌Better UX for section choice for "add a field at section" command. 🔧Lots of under-the-hood optimization, so if anything work act as expected, don't hesitate to open an issue in github. 📚Documentation here: https://mdelobelle.github.io/metadatamenu/ 🍿Demo here: https://youtu.be/I73uW8fqOZ8

... or the dataview based database folder

I used Obsidian DB Folder for a little bit, and it had some more functionality in its displays, but it felt rather clunky and still not quite where Notion is at, so I fell back to plain Dataview eventually.

https://github.com/RafaelGB/obsidian-db-folder has that feature

Google Keep for quick capture (simple copy-pasting links from mobile) and Notion for project management (although I think the Database Folders and Projects plugin can do a similar job)

Features you can't replicate in Bear: - Dataview - https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview - Making a movie database with Dataview - https://minimal.guide/Guides/Create+a+movie+database - Obsidian DB folder - https://github.com/RafaelGB/obsidian-db-folder - Quick switcher (CTRL+O on desktop) - Calendar - Templates - Templater - https://github.com/SilentVoid13/Templater - Theming community - Plugin ecosystem

You should separate your DBs into folders. And Use DB folder it's exactly what you want. Nicole van der Hoeven made a great video for beginners.
