API de sugerencias para Homepage

QOwnNotes can expose a local HTTP endpoint for Homepage suggestionUrl support, backed by the same bookmark parsing/indexing used by the Web Companion data source.

Habilitar en QOwnNotes

  1. Open Settings -> Browser extension / command snippets.
  2. Enable Enable socket server.
  3. In Bookmark suggestion API, enable Enable Homepage-compatible bookmark suggestions API and set a port.

El servicio solo se conecta a 127.0.0.1.

Endpoint

  • GET /suggest?q=home
  • Optional: limit (default 10, max 50)
  • Optional: token (if you configured a security token in QOwnNotes)

If you use the custom Homepage assets from docs/homepage/custom.js, set QON_TOKEN to the same security token you configured in QOwnNotes. The script will then append &token=... when requesting suggestions.

Respuesta de ejemplo:

["home", ["Homepage", "https://example.com/home", "Some Home Link"]]

Ejemplo de configuración de Homepage

search:
  provider: custom
  url: https://example.com/search?q=
  suggestionUrl: http://127.0.0.1:22224/suggest?q=
  showSearchSuggestions: true

If you protect the endpoint with a security token and use custom.js, keep suggestionUrl unchanged and set QON_TOKEN inside custom.js instead.

Qué archivo de Homepage editar

En una instalación estándar de Homepage, añada el bloque «search» en uno de estos archivos:

  • settings.yaml (global Homepage settings)
  • settings.yml (same as above, depending on your setup)
  • the file mounted into your container as /app/config/settings.yaml

If your Homepage deployment splits configuration across multiple files, edit the file that already contains your search provider settings.

Recursos para Homepage personalizado

This repository also contains a ready-to-use Homepage customization example in:

Use these files when your Homepage deployment supports loading custom.js and custom.css.

If your Homepage runs on an external host (different machine / container than QOwnNotes), you need these files on that hosted Homepage instance so it can query your local QOwnNotes suggestion API and merge/display those suggestions in Homepage search.

When you use that setup with a QOwnNotes security token, make sure the same token is configured in QON_TOKEN inside custom.js.

If you need network access beyond localhost, place a reverse proxy in front of the endpoint and restrict access (for example by firewall rules or allowlist), since bookmark data may contain sensitive URLs.
