[tw5] Preparing for v5.1.16

[Jeremy Ruston]

The release of v5.1.16 is overdue; the good news is that there are a lot of exciting new features:

* Copying to the clipboard
* A new “sortan” filter operator for intuitive alphanumeric sorting
* A new “rotate left” button in the bitmap editor
* Comparison operators for the reveal widget
* Visual diffs available in the edit preview and the import listing
* A hugely overhauled CodeMirror plugin with many new futures, and much better extensibility and customisability
* Many improvements to the TextSlicer plugin, including customisability via declarative JSON rules
* An updated KaTeX plugin to the latest v0.9.0
* The new DynaView plugin for building user interfaces that respond to scrolling and zooming
* Sharper and more readable default fonts

In preparation for the release, I’d be grateful for as many hands as possible to give the prerelease a try:

https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease>

Please try it with your favourite plugins, or perform a trial upgrade of your personal wikis. Any feedback gratefully received.

If all goes well, we’ll release v5.1.16 in the next few days.

Best wishes

Jeremy.

Hi @Jeremy Ruston ,

the codemirror prerelease demo page is still the old one, can this be
changed somehow for these testing days?

Hi Simon

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean. Has something not built correctly, or did I miss some of your changes?

Best wishes

on the prerelease page there's the link to the codemirror demo which is

not the prerelease demo but the old one
I think it's just changing the link to the demo
from https://tiddlywiki.com/plugins/tiddlywiki/codemirror/
to https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/plugins/tiddlywiki/codemirror/ for the
prerelease page

Also, a question about the d3.js plugin

It's been updated by @Silverfox and me over the last weeks ... to the
latest v5.0.0

@Silverfox has modified the barwidget and added a circle-pack widget and is
developing more widgets

With the updated base and the two widgets, could it be considered for the
release, too?

The google groups thread is here
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/TiddlyWiki/MIm5WyIZIhg>

The tiddlyspot page is here <http://d3jsv5trial.tiddlyspot.com/>

I would prepare a PR

Great, yes, if you can pull together a PR, it would be pretty low risk to merge it before the release.

Hi Jeremy,

Great to see this coming together. Thank you for all your work on this.

I'm wondering if these two pull requests could possibly be included.

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/3024 - Invoke hook when
server starts
- Adds a hook to the server command so plugins can add routes and
websockets without rewriting the server. Both the node server and
SimpleServer instance are needed to give maximum extensibility with minimal
disruption.
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/2990 - Allow specifying a
custom boot path
- Allows the boot path to be different from boot.js. Useful for compiled
executables. Not as important as the first one.

Both of them are slightly more advanced code features, but for someone like
me who knows more about boot.js than what widgets are available, these are
two that I see as being very useful, and also very simple at the same time.

Also, this line is missing an else. It should be else if, not just if,
because otherwise the callback can get called twice. It results in an RSOD
anytime there is a 412. Everyone has been running into this who uses the
PUT saver with etags.

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/core/modules/savers/put.js#L73

Thanks,
Arlen

Hi @Jeremy Ruston ,

The new *data-tiddler-title* isn't mentioned anywhere in the release notes
or the docs

It can be used to style Tiddlers by title, I think that's a big usability
plus and notable



[data-tiddler-title="HelloThere"] { background-color: #333333; }


Simon

[Jan Johannpeter]

Hi Simon, Hi Jeremy,
it would be great to be able to style tiddlers by type like
[data-tiddler-type="text/plain"] { background-color: #333333; } text/plain.

Could you make this possible?

Jan

after the data-tiddler-title=... add your data-tiddler-type=...

I think most of the tiddlers won't have any type assigned, that's why I
would do it like this:

<$set name="dataTiddlerType"
filter="[{!!type}regexp[^$]addprefix[text/vnd.tiddlywiki]]"><div
class=<<frame-classes>> ... data-tiddler-type=<<dataTiddlerType>>>

... don't forget to close the <$set> after the closing </div> ... take care
that you don't add new lines

[PMario]

--------------- Off Topic warning -------------------------

TLDR;

So having all those discussions and implementations in place, I would
suggest to add 1 more thing, to the view template, for ultimate
flexibility, *without *increasing complexity.

- We have a "color" field to define tag-colors
- We can have a "class" field that's added to a tiddler and the view
tempate like this:


\define frame-classes()
tc-tiddler-frame tc-tiddler-view-frame $(missingTiddlerClass)$ $(
shadowTiddlerClass)$ $(systemTiddlerClass)$ $(tiddlerTagClasses)$ $(
userClass)$
\end
\define folded-state()
$:/state/folded/$(currentTiddler)$
\end
<$vars storyTiddler=<<currentTiddler>> tiddlerInfoState=<<qualify
"$:/state/popup/tiddler-info">> userClass={{!!class}}><$tiddler tiddler=<<
currentTiddler>>><div data-title=<<currentTiddler>> data-tags={{!!tags}}
class=<<frame-classes>>><$list filter=
"[all[shadows+tiddlers]tag[$:/tags/ViewTemplate]!has[draft.of]]" variable=
"listItem"><$transclude tiddler=<<listItem>>/></$list>
</div>
</$tiddler></$vars>

I think, this will create the ultimate flexibility about tiddler body
styling, in a performant and backwards compatible way.

----------------------------------------

Post by BurningTreeC
The new *data-tiddler-title* isn't mentioned anywhere in the release
notes or the docs

That's not merged yet. IMO because we couldn't find a consensus, how it
should be implemented. ... See link to the discussions later in the post.

And your "data-tiddler-xxxxx" or "data-tiddler-type" example shows, that we
may need a more generic solution. ... keep on reading ;)

------------

My initial pull-request had only 1 intention: To fix the
"tc-tagged-Working%20with%20TiddlyWiki" problem. ... I think you can see
the problem here.

The CSS definition is a bit complicated for spaces. ... BUT imo it is
completely broken for languages, that use the Cyrillic or other alphabets.

eg: a tag like: слПЌаММый
would be tc-tagged-%D1%81%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9

Creating and maintaining these type of CSS rules, imo is a completely
broken user experience. My initial PR could nicely fix this issue.

The whole PR consists of about 17 tiddlers, where *16 are documentation*
about the new possibilities.

*ONLY 1 line in the ViewTemplate had to be changed* to:

<$set name="storyTiddler" value=<<currentTiddler>>><$set
name="tiddlerInfoState" value=<<qualify "$:/state/popup/tiddler-info">>><$tiddler
tiddler=<<currentTiddler>>><div data-title=<<currentTiddler>>
data-tags={{!!tags}} class=<<frame-classes>>><$list
filter="[all[shadows+tiddlers]tag[$:/tags/ViewTemplate]!has[draft.of]]"
variable="listItem"><$transclude tiddler=<<listItem>>/></$list>



Discussions can be seen at my 1st
<https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/2737> and 2nd PR
<https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/3038> at GitHub. ... Be
warned there are 2 "Walls of text"

Especially this post may be interesting:
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/3038#issuecomment-349011301
It defines a way to dynamically define a stylesheet, based on any field.
... The problem here is. It may have a negative performance impact. ...
see: "may have" ...


If you need special handling for a tiddler with a field: rank and the

Post by BurningTreeC
title: myStyles
tags: $:/tags/Stylesheet
<$list filter="[rank[species]]">
[data-title^="<$view field=title/>"] .tc-tiddler-body {
column-count: 2;
}
</$list>
And you are good to go.

This is a very similar mechanism as you explained with "data-tiddler-type"
___without___ the need to change the ViewTemplate and the exact same
performance characteristic. ...

Conclusion!

If you made it that far ... Go up and read the TLDR;

---------------- OT END -------------------

Have fun!

PS: I'll update my PR. Add data-tags and data-title attributes to the
ViewTemplate #3038
<https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/3038#issuecomment-349011301>
and the doc at: http://2737.tiddlyspot.com accordingly.

It can do, what a browser can handle. .. NO TW specific stuff here.

eg: title: aa"aa

CSS:

[data-title="aa\"aa"] {
border: 4px solid blue;
}



or

[data-title='aa"aa'] {
border: 4px solid blue;

@Jeremy Ruston

about the d3 plugin: I think we won't make it in time to adjust the new
widgets so that they can be used in a productive way - they're still in a
demo-state

We can leave the plugin as it is, or remove the widgets and have just the
library updated - adding some infos and links to the readme

[Silverfox]

Sorry I dont have enough time and all the required skills to update it in
due time for v5.1.16 release, but I promise I'll go on working on it for
next one.
(I just started learning JavaScript, D3 and TW in January... my coding
efficiency is still limited)

[Abraham Samma]

Great to see a new version of TW5 coming so soon. Already checking out the
pre-release.

BTW Jeremy, I don't know if this has simply been accepted as a given but I
sometimes find it tedious to have to deal with long "Internal JS error"
messages that overflow beyond the screen in other browsers besides Chrome.
There's no way to scroll through the message to get to the form button that
closes the error message. I've had to directly modify the way the message
is created via the domMaker method to shorten the message to prevent this
nuisance. Shouldn't this be something deserving of a more permanent
solution? It won't cost more than a few changes in bootjs.

A screenshot of an example in the latest stable version of firefox is
attached

Regards.

The release of v5.1.16 is overdue; the good news is that there are a lot
* Copying to the clipboard
* A new “sortan” filter operator for intuitive alphanumeric sorting
* A new “rotate left” button in the bitmap editor
* Comparison operators for the reveal widget
* Visual diffs available in the edit preview and the import listing

I'm afraid my progress has been slower for the last 3 weeks than I'd hoped due to suddenly succumbing to something called bursitis of my elbows (which is a medical term for “expert torture administered via the elbows”). Maddening condition for a programmer: typing, using a touch screen or trackpad all induce nerve-shredding agony. It's slowly getting better but I can still only type for short bursts. On the positive side, it's given me some welcome insights into everyday life for people who rely on assistive technologies.

Anyhow, I intend to release 5.1.16 later today unless anyone has any showstopper concerns (I do intend to merge Matt's range widget before the release).

Best wishes

Jeremy.

I'm really sorry to hear that, Jeremy. Any inflammation that affects the
joints area is extremely painful (from my own experience, unfortunately).
After weeks of agony I luckily found an effective treatment by combining
prescribed "Western" anti-inflammatory drugs with Traditional Chinese
Medicine herbs. Should you need some information, drop me a private
message. Wish you quick relief.

Hi,

Most of it is documentation. Only the ViewTemplate contains some changes.

Trying out the range widget:

I type in <$range/> in the text field which gives the slider thingy. I.e I
don't explicitly state any field.
Pulling the slider to a position totally replaces(!) everything(!) in the
current field with the static corresponding value.
This is not what happens when you pull the slider from a <input
type="range"> html element, where instead "nothing" happens.

I'm thinking that if "nothing" should happen, then maybe there should be
some other default field (e.g "range-value") or that the slider is blocked
or something. Or maybe some warning or confirmation request? The most user
friendly is probably having a default field.

The existing rangewidget default attribute does not seem to be about this
matter.

Some quick examples to add to the range widget documentation (tested
on https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/)

1-10
<$range field=number-field min=-1 max=10 default=1 increment=1 ></$range>
{{!!number-field}}

0 to 1 for percentages

<$range tiddler="Settings tiddler" field=number-field min=0 max=1
default=.01 increment=.01 ></$range> {{Settings tiddler!!number-field}}

Ideally all command/widgets should have a "code template" we can copy to
clipboard

<$range tiddler="" field="" min=1 max=10 increment=1 default=1
class=""></$range>

Otherwise it is time consuming for the user to build the command

If the commands feature demands it we may present multiple forms of the
code template.

Tony

Ciao Jeremy

Small point. There are references to "TiddlySpace" in the documentation at:

https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#TiddlyWiki%20in%20the%20Sky%20for%20TiddlyWeb

and

https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#TiddlySpace

... that maybe should be updated/removed?

and

https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#History%20of%20TiddlyWiki

... maybe updated not to be linked to a TiddlySpace Tiddler?

Best wishes

Feedback,

Using the CodeMirror plugin I can insert tabs in the text, long desired.
However the tabs only show in edit mode, not view mode

Perhaps this is desirable

However if a line has one or more tab characters in it it is not visible
yet it is no longer blank and will cause text to move up and join the line
before. ie; same paragraph.

This could frustrate a lot of people trying to debug their tiddler view
content.

Solutions?, A edit/View mode that shows hidden characters, or honour tabs
in view mode such that they also end the paragraph/

Tony

Tabs are __not__ a "styling" element. They are treated as whitespace in
HTML.

However if a line has one or more tab characters in it it is not visible
yet it is no longer blank and will cause text to move up and join the line
before. ie; same paragraph.

That's an issue or feature request. ... I think you could start a new
thread for codemirror only. ... It may be possible to create a setting,
that shows whitespace, like spaces and tabs ...

As I wrote. Either create a new issue at github or start a new thread in

Should be possible.

no .. Only 2 "new lines" ends a paragraph.

If tabs cause a lot of problems, we will need to turn them off for TW
wikitext. They are invisible anyway.

Tabs can only be used for json, data tidlers, CSS, SVG and javascript code.

have fun!

[TonyM]

Mario,

I hear all you are saying. On Further consideration.


- The main need I have for tabs in wiki-text tiddlers is for
structuring information in edit mode so that it is more reasonable to read.
I could live with its invisible non line break if in some modes I could see
them, and even if not rendered in the View Template.
- The secondary need I have, which many authors and content provides has
is for indent in this case ":" works for this in tiddlywiki (although on my
keyboard it is a shift-: and you have to place ":::" at the beginning of a
line not while you are typing.
- The final need is to organise text in simple columns, this is when it
is displayed as well, and its helpful that tab"text" moves it to the next
tab position.

A work around for this last items would be
|*|Item|detail|
|*|Item 2|detail|

if I could easily make the table boarders disappear.

Using the CodeMirror plugin I can insert tabs in the text, long desired.
However the tabs only show in edit mode, not view mode

Tabs are __not__ a "styling" element. They are treated as whitespace in
HTML.

However if a line has one or more tab characters in it it is not visible
yet it is no longer blank and will cause text to move up and join the line
before. ie; same paragraph.

That's an issue or feature request. ... I think you could start a new
thread for codemirror only. ... It may be possible to create a setting,
that shows whitespace, like spaces and tabs ...

This could frustrate a lot of people trying to debug their tiddler view
content.

As I wrote. Either create a new issue at github or start a new thread in
the group. So it won't be forgotten.

Solutions?, A edit/View mode that shows hidden characters,

Should be possible.

or honour tabs in view mode such that they also end the paragraph/

no .. Only 2 "new lines" ends a paragraph.
If tabs cause a lot of problems, we will need to turn them off for TW
wikitext. They are invisible anyway.
Tabs can only be used for json, data tidlers, CSS, SVG and javascript code.

Hi Tony,

I can "hear you" ... but it's OT here. That's why I moved this discussion
to its own thread: discussion: codemirror editor and improved indentation
handling <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/0yNfYL4GcJI>

have fun!

Mat,

That is the same problem that an empty textedit widget has, and I think the
select widget too. So it isn't unexpected. Unfortunately I am not sure what
to do to fix it since defaulting to the text field and current tiddler is
used a lot in tiddlywiki and changing that in general would break a lot.

I just noticed that the checkbox widget doesn't have this problem so I
guess there is some precedent for it. I am not sure what the checkbox
widget does when no attributes are given.

On the prerelease I am listed as @inmysock instead of @inmysocks so it
points to a non-existent GitHub user. As much as I enjoy that I should
probably change it. Is it easier for you if I make a pull request with the
change?
