Hey Mark,

Just tried it out and everything worked perfectly! Did a little bit of 
tweaking and things are well on their way to completion.

Thank you so much for the rapid and thorough response!

[tw] SetWidget inside Macro

2017-05-31 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
Hello!

I've been using TW5 on and off for quite a while and I've recently decided 
to use it for taking notes/tasks while working. As part of this I'd like to 
have a quick and easy way to create tiddlers with a given prefix (based on 
tags) and a name. I haven't done much in the way of customizing TW5 before 
so most of this is quite new, any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

For example:
If I have a tiddler titled "PR123456 Tasks" tagged with "PR123456 [[PR 
Tasks]]" I would like to have a text edit field that will take the task 
name and produce a tiddler titled "PR123456 Task: task-name-here".

Here's some sample code:


\define concat(word1 word2)
$word1$ $word2$
\end


\define createTaskTiddler(prefix tags)
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/state/new-task-title" tag="input" default="" 
placeholder="Task Title"/>
<$button>
<$vars name={{$:/state/new-task-title!!text}}>
<$action-createtiddler $basetitle="$prefix$$(name)$" tags="$tags$" completed
="false"/>

<$action-deletetiddler $tiddler="$:/state/new-task-title"/>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-auto-save-wiki"/>
Add Task

\end


<$list filter="[is[current]tags[]]+[!tag[PR Tasks]]">
<$set name="prNum" value=<>>
<$set name="prefix" value=<>>


<>







You can view a semi working demo here: 
https://tw.mdeabreu.com/work.html#PR123456%20Tasks
When you try it you should be able to see that when you attempt to add a 
new task the tiddler created has the title "PR123456 Tasks: " but it is 
failing to transclude the title.

Any tips, help, and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

[tw] Re: Any updates on Dbl-Click to edit and ctrl+enter to save?

2015-09-01 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
I did enjoy being able to double click to edit in TWC, so I was a little 
saddened to find that it was missing from TW5. That being said I totally 
see the use in double clicking to select text. I think an option to enable 
it would be awesome.

[tw] Re: Problems using TiddlyWiki on node.js on a Synology Diskstation.

2015-07-28 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
When you run the server you will not be returned to the prompt, if this is 
a problem you can use the program screen to put it in the background or at 
the end of the command you are running to start the server put a  to 
start it in the background.

For example:
tiddlywiki . --server 

Speaking of commands, what command are you using to start the server? By 
default the server will only allow the localhost (connections from the 
machine running the server) to connect to it. If you want any machine on 
your network to be able to connect to the server you will have to tell it 
to listen on all interfaces by using the following command:
tiddlywiki . --server 8080 $:/core/save/all text/plain text/html   
0.0.0.0

This will start the TiddlyWiki NodeJS server in the current directory, on 
port 8080, will display all tiddlers, ..., ..., will not need a username, 
nor a password, and will listen for connections on all interfaces.

You can read more about the server command 
here: http://tiddlywiki.com/#ServerCommand

 Hi,

 I am experimenting with Tiddlywiki on node.js. I have installed node.js on

 number is returned correctly and setting up the server seems to have 
 worked. As least, it says it is serving on 127.0.0.1:8080. The only thing 
 is that it hasn't returned to the prompt. I assume that is because the 
 server is running.

 But when I try and access the server on Synology's IP address port 8080, I 
 get 'Unable to connect'. The synology is not busy, it's CPU is running at 
 between 50-60%. The network connection is fine and the firewall is not 
 impeding Firefox. 

 What am I doing wrong?

[tw] Re: chemistry terms become unwanted hyperlinks

2015-05-12 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
This is because they are CamelCase (http://tiddlywiki.com/#CamelCase) which 
is one way TiddlyWiki turns words into links, if you would like to prevent 
certain words from becoming links you can prefix the word with a tilde. 
ZnSe would become ~ZnSe. It will no longer become a link.

 Hi,

 I use tiddlywiki to take notes and summarize important literature for 
 later reference. One problem I have with Tiddlywiki is that whenever I 
 enter chemical compounds by their elemental makeup, e.g. zinc selenide 
 (ZnSe), the abbreviated name is a hyperlink pointing to nothing. It's an 
 annoyance more than anything, but would like to know if there's a way to 
 stop tiddlywiki from doing this.

 It seems to occur only if there is a capital letter in the middle of a 
 word, like ZnSe, GaAs, SiO, but not Fe or In

 Thanks,

Re: [tw] Re: Tiddlywiki Branding/UI Studies

2015-04-17 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
Wow! As someone who likes the Muted palette in TiddlyWiki that looks 
fantastic! Talking about shadows reminded me of Google's Material Design (
http://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html) and 
how every element is almost like a piece of paper. The logo you've designed 
you called it origami which is of course paper; we could skip the 
skeumorphism and go for a slightly more Material design where everything is 
layered and they all cast shadows based on their Z positions (and 
importance) with a consistent sun.

Now I'm curious to read through the Material Design specs and see if I can 
get anything interesting.

 Hi Matthew thanks for the comments, colors are indeed a bit bright, here 
 is a toned down version that is easier on the eyes and steals less 
 attention from the user, and would probably go better as standard palette, 
 then again colors are always meant to be user customizable.
 The shadow is also big, but I feared that if made too small the effect 
 could be lost. I think it can be made slightly smaller by default. I even 
 thought that it could mistakenly signal the user that the interface was 
 somehow blocked or disabled, so maybe it could be made as an effect that 
 would disappear when the toolbar was hovered (?).
 In this version it is about two thirds of the original size, could still 
 shrink further if needed. Also slightly reworked other details including 
 the shrunk sidebar, to have an 'expand arrow' and a 'shrink further' arrow.

 Back to the topic at hand, these designs. I agree with Jeremy that the

 using the shadow over the sidebar. My problem with it is that the shadow is 
 very large and despite that the colours are very bold. When I first look at 
 the image my eyes are immediately drawn to the very vibrant colours rather

 the tiddler tools and lastly to the content. Now when I try to read the 
 content my eyes keep wandering towards the bright colours.

 I really like the colours but I think they should be accents, little 
 flares of colour to brighten the page and draw your eyes to important 
 things but not bright enough to distract.


 https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-s9x07M9smxs/VS_mWxLrT0I/IFo/UtCX88ZJo6I/s1600/dokuwiki.png

 As an example here is the homepage of another wiki engine I have used 
 called DokuWiki. You can see they have done the same thing with a drop 
 shadow to make the content stand above the rest of the page but it is 
 subtle and you don't really consciously notice it. If you look at the use 
 of colour it again is very subtle; the logo at the top of the page, the 
 large green download button, the images, and finally the green text that 
 links you to other wiki pages (tiddlers). The rest of the page is a mix of 
 blue and grey; it almost disappears into the background as you read the 
 content and only becomes relevant when it's needed.

 Anyways, that's an end to my ramblings. I'm really looking forward to 
 seeing new and improved designs; and how they will influence the future of 
 TiddlyWiki!

 It basically tries to represent the whole sidebar as if in a background 
 planed behind the tiddler river, like it was tucked beneath it (the shadow 
 tries to mimic that). The toolbars and elements behave as ribbons of paper 
 sticking out from behind the tiddler area as bookmarks stick from the side 
 of a book.
 This would emphasize the the importance of the tiddler river as the main 
 content foreground element above the secondary tools under it, while 
 hopefully allowing for a more or less colorful sidebar without stealing so 
 much attention away (or keep the more monochrome tone which I think works 
 very well currently). Here are a few previews with colored or more muted 
 sidebars, in lighter or darker themes.

 This visual cue has the additional advantage that it could be further 
 extended in a consistent manner for an hypothetical hide sidebar 
 function. When is activated, a small portion of the sidebar could still be 
 displayed at the edge of the browser window, with perhaps a few select 
 essential tools still tucked under the shadow of the main tiddler view, 
 keeping some reduced functionality while enlarging the available view area.







 https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-tACY1agMsiU/VS8U479adHI/JTU/4AhPQTflfBo/s1600/Tiddlywiki_UI_Mockup17.png

 Ideally this could be done in conjunction with a default centered view for 
 the tiddler river, with shadows on both sides, to totally assume it's 
 importance as central piece, although I understand this would steals a lot 
 of potential sidebar space.
 These elements (like the toolbars sticking out, the search bar or even the 
 tag pills) could gain a more skeuomorphic form with stronger paper like 
 visual (like with stylized bent corners and more shadows), if that's what 
 you are looking for, although I think it might be too much for users who 
 prefer a simpler look and may spoil the more neutral look.

 

[tw] Re: Route your node.js TW5 installation to a domain

2015-02-06 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
One thing you may have to do is change the network interface that the 
node.js instance is listening on. By default TiddlyWiki is only listening 
on 127.0.0.1; this means that only connections from your local computer 
will be able to view the wiki. If you would like to be able to view it from 
another computer on or outside of your network you will need to change the 
serve command so that it listens on 0.0.0.0 (essentially it listens on all 
interfaces)

--server 8080 $:/core/save/all text/plain text/html   0.0.0.0

[tw] Re: Announcing TiddlyDesktop v0.0.4

2015-01-13 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
If anyone is having any issues opening the application, I would recommend 
you delete the files that node-webkit creates. You can find the default 
datapaths here: https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit/wiki/App#datapath 
then you will see a TiddlyWiki folder, delete that and then try starting 
TiddlyDesktop again.

That fixed the issue I mentioned earlier about it not starting for me 
however it still seems fairly unstable to me. For example, if I open a wiki 
and try to resize it then the whole application will freeze...

On Sunday, January 11, 2015 at 4:02:48 PM UTC-8, Jeremy Ruston wrote:

 This release includes a major reworking of the internals of TiddlyDesktop. 
 It's really a bit early for general release, but we need feedback to 
 improve it. Please use it with great caution, and consider reverting to 
 v0.0.3 if you run into any problems.

 Download it here:

 https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyDesktop/releases/tag/v0.0.4

 Please report any problems or suggestions here or via GitHub.

 ! New Features

 * Warning message when closing windows with unsaved changes (TWC and TW 
 5.1.8 and above only)
 * Help window
 * Toolbar for TiddlyWiki windows
 * Reveal original file in Finder/Explorer
 * Automatic backups

 Note that there is currently no way to hide the toolbar for TiddlyWiki 
 windows. This will be remedied soon!

 ! New Architecture

 TiddlyDesktop itself is now an instance of the Node.js edition of 
 TiddlyWiki. TiddlyWiki HTML files are run within embedded, sandboxed 
 iframes with the backstage TiddlyWiki providing services such as saving 
 to the file system.

 The advantage of this approach is that the user interface and 
 functionality of the desktop application can now be customised and extended 
 with exactly the same techniques that are used in regular TiddlyWiki.

 !! Coming Soon

 The functionality of this release barely matches that of the previous 
 v0.0.3 version, but it lays the groundwork for a number of other features 
 such as

 * configurable toolbars
 * hyperbookmarklets
 * page zoom
 * creating new wikis from standard editions and custom templates
 * dragging `_canonical_uri` links from the file system
 * multiple languages
 * one-click copying of text to the clipboard from within TiddlyWiki
 * global keyboard shortcut for clipping content
 etc.

 In doing this work on TiddlyDesktop over the last three weeks I've found 
 the answer to the question of its purpose: it is to provide a hosting 
 environment for TiddlyWiki documents that is as fertile to customisation, 
 extension and sharing as TiddlyWiki itself. Given the funding, I'd love for 
 this to preface the development of a smartphone/tablet app with similar 
 functionality. Is that something people would be interested in?

 Best wishes

 Jeremy.

[tw] Re: Tip for serving TW5 on node to local network

2015-01-12 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
No problem, glad I could help. As a note about security, if you have the server 
listening to 0.0.0.0 on port 8080 and in your router configuration have 
forwarded that port the server is open to all traffic on both the local and 
external network.

[tw] Announcing TiddlyDesktop v0.0.4

2015-01-11 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
Awesome news, I recently installed TiddlyDesktop at work so I can integrate 
TiddlyWiki more seamlessly into my workflow and I'm looking forward to the new 
features.

As an aside when clicking on links to external sites within TiddlyDesktop a new 
node-webkit window will open with that site rather than being opened in the 
default web browser, is it possible to change this behaviour?

The default command will run and listen on 127.0.0.1, in other words only the 
machine running the server will be able to connect to it. By running and 
listening on 0.0.0.0 it will listen on all network interfaces and will accept 
connections from any machine on the local network and not just from the machine 
running the server.

In addition if you have a mouse with a clickable scroll wheel (ie there is 
a button for when you push down on the wheel) you can use that in the same 
way as a ctrl click.

 Just in case you don't know :)

 If you read a tiddler and want to open a linked tiddler, in normal cases 
 it scrolls to the new tiddler.
 If you do a *ctrl click,* it just opens the tiddler in the sidebar, 
 without scrolling. ... so this is less distracting.

 have fun!

[tw] Change IP server address

2014-09-29 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
You can change the arguments passed to the server command to change what port 
and what IP it listens to.


--server 80 $:/core/save/all text/plain text/html   0.0.0.0

This command for example will make the server listen on all interfaces on port 
80, but let's break it down so you understand what it means.
The first argument is the port (listening on port 80)
The second is which tiddler will be served (this will serve all tiddlers)
The third is what the tiddlers are saved as
The fourth is the tiddlers will be served as
The fifth is the username for edits (in this case blank)
The sixth is the password (also blank)
And finally the seventh is which interfaces to listen on, by setting this to 
0.0.0.0 the server will be listening on all interfaces and people will be able 
to connect using your WAN IP, LAN IP, or your localhost 

You can read more about the arguments accepted by the server command here:

[tw] [TW5] is not saving backups

2014-09-18 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
Those settings are for use with a webserver and store.(php|cgi) which is used 
by TiddlySpot and won't work with a copy of TiddlyWiki stored on your computer. 
I'm not sure if it's possible to create back ups, maybe someone else can answer 
that but the best way I've found is to store the TiddlyWiki file in my Dropbox 
directory.

 Which operating system do you use?
 Which browser? .. Version?

 It looks like a file write error. .. Did you write to an external usb

Make sure you include the macro definition so the full code would look 
something like this:

\define toc-heading(caption,body)

$button set=qualify $:/state/toc/$caption$ setTo=show 
class=btn-invisible{{$:/core/images/right-arrow}} $caption$

/$button
/$reveal

/$reveal
\end

toc-heading Games

[tw] [TW5] How to automate Table of Content?

2014-08-16 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
Using the table of contents from tiddlywiki.com as a starting point you can use 
the list widget to generate a list of tiddlers. For example this code below 
will create a list of all tiddlers tagged with Game.

toc-heading Games 
ol
$list filter='[!is[system]tag[Game]]'
liolli$link$view field='title'//$link/li/ol/li
/$list
/ol

[tw] Can Wikipedia database imported into TW5?

2014-05-12 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
I actually had a similar thought, I downloaded an XML dump of the Wikipedia 
database from herehttp://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_download 
and then I wrote a fairly simple python script that would traverse the XML 
document tree creating individual files for each article (that wasn't a 
redirect) and formatting them like a Tiddler. Then I was able to use the NodeJS 
version of TiddlyWiki to start upk using this directory of tiddlers.

The first thing I noticed was how massive the memory footprint was and how slow 
the site was to load (plus I only took the first 10,000 articles). So TW is 
unfortunately not fast enough or strong enough to load the entire Wikipedia 
database, but if you have your own Media wiki installation that you would like 
to convert as others have pointed out there are ways to dump the database that 
can work and TW should be able to handle it if you have a smaller number of 
articles. Though you may have to convert the syntax yourself unless someone 
makes a plugin to add Media wiki syntax support.

If you or anyone else wants the python script just let me know and I'll post it.

[tw] Re: Introducing TiddlyDesktop

2014-03-16 Thread Matthew DeAbreu
One unfortunate thing I've noticed is that on my mac (Macbook Pro 13.3 
1280x800) whenever I open a TiddlyWiki from the main menu a new window is 
created and the top bar is actually above the screen and so I am unable to 
access the minimize, maximize, and close buttons; nor am I able to easily 
move the window. While not a huge problem it does get kind of annoying.

Thank you for all the great work on TiddlyWiki!

On Monday, January 13, 2014 12:45:22 PM UTC-8, Jeremy Ruston wrote:

 A belated announcement about TiddlyDesktop, a new cross-platform custom 
 desktop application for working with TiddlyWiki. It currently works on Mac 
 OS X and Windows with Linux coming soon.

 It's made with node-webkit, an opensource toolkit from Intel that melds 
 the Chromium open source web browser with Node.js, to give the mindbending 
 property of web pages that can call Node.js APIs from JavaScript. It's 
 great fun to work with; it feels like it multiplies the two familiar 
 capabilities of Node.js and the browser, giving much more power than either 
 on their own. Anyhow, my excitement over the internals is probably best 
 discussed over on the tiddlywikidev group.

 The motivation for doing TiddlyDesktop is that it gives us a chance to 
 create a TiddlyWiki experience that we can fully control, without any 
 browser restrictions getting in the way. I believe it will become a 
 critical leg of the TiddlyWiki ecosystem.

 In the first release, TiddlyDesktop has the following features:

 * A main window showing a list of registered tiddlywiki files
 * A browse button for adding new files
 * An open button for each file that opens it in a new window
 * A remove button that removes a TiddlyWiki from the list
 * Changes can be saved in TiddlyWiki in the usual way with the 
 save/download icon
 * When quitting and reopening the app, any open TiddlyWiki windows are 
 reopened

 In the future:

 * Implementing the clone button to make copies of TiddlyWikis
 * Add a empty clone button that makes an empty copy of a TiddlyWiki (ie, 
 with all system tiddlers, but the ordinary tiddlers removed)
 * Allowing template tiddlywikis to be loaded up as http:// or file:// 
 URIs, so one can immediately create a new wiki based on 
 http://tiddlywiki.com/empty.html
 * Preserve window positions across quit/startup
 * Drag and drop to add TiddlyWiki files to the main window
 * Autosave
 * Protection against closing the window without unsaved changes
 * Support for opening a wiki as a small borderless, always on top window 
 for displaying reminders
 * Exploring other OS integration opportunities, such as desktop alerts, or 
 integration with OS X system services menu

 A very exciting possibility is to make it possible to directly open a wiki 
 that is stored as a wiki folder with individual tiddler files (at the 
 moment it is only possible to work with these wikis under Node.js).

 There is a screencast showing how it works on both Mac and Windows here:

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3Bggkm7paA

 You can download TiddlyDesktop from GitHub:

 https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyDesktop

 Obviously, please take care before using it for anything critical. It's 
 extremely early days.

 Any questions or comments welcome,

 Best wishes

 Jeremy
