I'd request a feature that allows users to define custom dynamic fields using JavaScript (or other scripting languages).
Currently, Mochi offers some very helpful built-in dynamic fields, but I'd like to be able to define my own logic. For example:
- send custom API requests
- perform custom string manipulation (e.g., regex parsing, transformations)
- randomize the order of the content every time I review
What I'm envisioning is similar to how the current "AI text generator" field works: a field in the template editor where I can input JavaScript code that takes the field value(s) as input and returns a modified string.
Since script tags aren't rendered in Mochi's HTML, this kind of functionality would be a powerful workaround and enable highly customized workflows.
Of course, I understand there are security concerns with allowing arbitrary code execution. But even a limited, sandboxed environment (like Web Workers or a subset of JavaScript) would be helpful for users who want to fully customize their experience!
I actually started a branch for this feature a loooong time ago but never released it. https://x.com/MochiCardsApp/status/1712345101039755608
I'd like to clean it up and release it as a beta feature soon.
