if you use firefox or chrome there is an extension called tiddlyclip that 
can create a 'canonical' tiddler for a photo with a single click,

2017-03-23 Thread @TiddlyTweeter
Ciao Jon

I think Jed & Atul are right that using an external program is likely the 
best way to go.

I would like to add: Depending on what type of graphic files they are they 
may contain useful meta-data (title, subject, date of shot etc. anything 
you want, really) that can help you generate all you need.

FWIW, for something like this I would initially use an EXIF editor to embed 
needed data into the photos themselves. Then use an EXIF data extractor to 
pull it out that into some form, like XLSX, that can be imported as one 
record per photo. All the Tiddler fields would then be ready populated with 
what you need.

Likely the critical factor is HOW MANY are there? Whether its worth gong 
through this process rather than doing them one by one.  

Best wishes
Josiah

unfortunately I think that the answer to how to do this is to use some 
external program like Atul suggested. Perl and bash could both create 
either .tid files with _canonical_uri or a singe json file containing all 
of them that you could then import, but writing the script would require a 
bit of coding knowledge.

Hi Jon,

Are you planning to import the photos from an external folder or are you 
dragging the photos in TW?

FMLK...(from my limited knowledge). If you are dragging the photos then TW 
will automatically import the images as svg.

In case you are linking them from external folder then 
1. Open an excel sheet
2. Add details of the tiddlers with links to the images in the text field
3. Drop the excel sheet into TW using xslt plugin
