tiddlywiki.info Files

 14th November 2021 at 10:12am

TiddlyWikiFolders are configured with a single tiddlywiki.info file in the root of the wiki folder. It should contain a JSON object comprising the following properties:

  • plugins - an array of plugin names to be included in the wiki
  • themes - an array of theme names to be included in the wiki
  • languages - an array of language names to be included in the wiki
  • includeWikis - an array of references to external wiki folders to be included in the wiki
  • build - a hashmap of named build targets, each defined by an array of command tokens (see BuildCommand)
  • config - an optional hashmap of configuration options (see below)

includeWikis

The entries in the includeWikis array can be either a string specifying the relative path to the wiki, or an object with the following fields:

  • path - relative path to wiki folder
  • read-only - set true to prevent the tiddlers in the included wiki from being modified. The modifications will be written to the directory specified in default-tiddler-location, described below

build

Note that the build targets of included wikis are merged if a target of that name isn't defined in the current tiddlywiki.info file.

config

Configuration options include:

  • default-tiddler-location - a string path to the default location for the filesystem adaptor to save new tiddlers (resolved relative to the wiki folder)
  • retain-original-tiddler-path - If true, the server will generate a tiddler $:/config/OriginalTiddlerPaths containing the original file paths of each tiddler in the wiki

Example

For example:

{
	"plugins": [
		"tiddlywiki/tiddlyweb",

	"includeWikis": [
		{"path": "../tw5.com", "read-only": true}
	],
	"build": {
		"index": [
			"--rendertiddler","$:/core/save/all","index.html","text/plain"],
		"favicon": [
			"--savetiddler","$:/favicon.ico","favicon.ico",
			"--savetiddler","$:/green_favicon.ico","static/favicon.ico"]
	},
	"config": {
		"retain-original-tiddler-path": true	
	}
