Andre, please know that the community's official forum moved a while ago to 
this site:

https://talk.tiddlywiki.org/

Posts to google groups get forwarded there, so I could see your question -- 
but I had to come over to google groups to reply. In future, please post 
questions (and search and browse some great conversations, including 
multiple ways of approaching tables!) over at the talk.tiddlywiki community.

Meanwhile, I can offer a quick tip here, though: Check out the quick-table 
macro (also by @Mohammah) here:

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[André Carvalho]

Hi Alan
I've just found this plugin and its amazing. Congratulations on a great job!

Maybe I'm just missing something but I would like to be able to create a 
multi-line table whose content come from a single tiddler instead of a 
tiddler per line (probably named tablename_content and tagged with a 
specific tag).
The content of that tiddler may be some form of structured text like CSV.

I think this would cover a common use case where we have large tables with 
static content in a tiddler that become quite difficult to edit using TW 
syntax.

Best regards
André de Carvalho

PS: as you can see by my sites (https://missingintw5.tiddlyhost.com/# and 
https://acarvalho.tiddlyhost.com/) I'm not too orthodox in TiddlyWiki usage 
but for me it is a fantastic tool to keep an easy to maintain and read 
website.

Hi Alan,

I was trying to create a income expense manager using tiddlytables based on 
the task manger demo you have shown. I was inspired by this budgetlywiki 
.

Here  is what I got after 
todays experiments. Will you be able to clear some of my doubts if I ask 
here.

 I know that its a successful tool already. But i was thinking why there 
 is no news regarding the further development of such a great plug in for 
 the last 10 months. Probably the developer is busy in his life and 
 wouldn't 
 have got time to allocate for further updates. I should thank Alan for 
 developing tiddlytables and for being an inspiration for similar pllug ins.

Thanks Alan for the reply. Don’t be sorry. It has been a tough time for all
of us. Happy to hear from you. Waiting for further updates on tiddlytables
once u r ready. Will give my suggestions as I use it more. May be you can

[TW Tones]

I suppose *"there is no news regarding the further development"*  because 
we operate on voluntary contributions of time. People also need feedback 
that there solutions are useful to justify what is working for no return. 
This is fine in a community spirit but sometimes life and livelihood 
compete with community work. I for one could deliver a pile of published 
solutions however I am not working much and need to build a business.

We do need to find ways to inject a little demand and output for those 
seeking a living.

Tones

[Alan Aldrich]

myfta,

*Column Templates *are used to modify the text or functionality of columns. 
There are three kinds of column templates: header, body and footer 
templates, and there are several built in.
Click "manage column templates" under "Columns" in the edit menu to choose 
a different template for a particular field/index.
This link 
 
has more information about the template concept.

*CSS* is used to modify the appearance of columns. 
There are a few built in stylesheets that can be edited under "Theme 
(Stylesheet)" section of the edit menu.

Hope this helps,
Alan

Well I used a modified solution by Eric Shulman,


   1. create a list of value===tiddler name
   2. sort the new list of value===tiddler name

here === is connector and is used to create an item. In other word as it is 
difficult to create a two dimensional array, one appends the tiddler title 
to end of value for same index (e.g. column)
after sorting gets back the title and display records.
something like this

\define tableFilter_indexes()  [enlist]+[$(sortneg)$$(sortType)$[]]

\define getitems()<$set name=Index tiddler=<> 
index="sortIndex"><$list filter="[subfilter!has[draft.of]]" 
><$text text="[["/>{{{ [getindexaddsuffix[°≡°]] 
}}}<><$text text="]]"/>
\end

 
where

\define display_body_indexes()<$wikify name="items" text=<> > <$list 
filter=<> variable="currentItem" ><$list 
filter="[split[°≡°]last[]]" variable="currentRecord">
 <>
\end

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Hi Mohammad, 
These are both inherent limitations of working with index values in 
TiddlyTables. Let me explain...

In your first example, you are trying to sort by an index. There is no 
simple way to do this in TiddlyWiki and because the table is generated by a 
filter, no simple way to do this in TiddlyTables. 
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/tiddlywiki/LJpK7t31G98/discussion
Here is a thread discussing this issue, and a couple macro-based solutions. 
In fact, you replied that you would try one of the solutions in your 
Dynamic Tables plugin. Did you have any success? any suggestions?

In your second example, you want the plugin to intelligently determine 
whether to create a new field "ic" or a new index "ic". the way the plugin 
works is if a field exists with that name it will take precedence over the 
index. I opted for a simplicity here though I suppose the plugin could make 
a more advanced decision based on whether that index exists and whether 
there is already data in the text field. That is the main reason it 
defaults to field instead of index. There is a risk of accidentally 
overwriting existing data in the text field if you inadvertently "create an 
index" by editing.

I agree the documentation could be improved. I wish I had more time. I plan 
to add something to this effect:

There are some limitations when using indexes as columns. This is due to 
inherent limitations of index support in filters. The most noticeable is 
that *index values cannot be sorted*. A mix of fields and indexes can be 
used as columns in a single table, but there is no way for the user to 
distinguish a "field" column from an "index" column. If an index and field 
exist with the same name, it is possible to have a mix of index values and 
field values in a single column. If a tiddler has both a field and index 
with the same name or if neither exist, the *field* value will always take 
precedence whether viewing or editing. 

Thank you for pointing this out. I hope this helps,
Alan

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Hi Alan,
 In the latest version of Tiddlytables there seem some small issues

A. sort 
i. create several data tiddlers tagged with xx like tid1, tid2, tid3,...
ii. add an index/value as myindex
iii. give different numerical values like 1, 10, 111, 1000
v. create a table and sort on myindex

The sort does not work.


B. edit mode
i. create a tiddler of several dataTiddler all tagged with xx and all with 
indexes like ia, ib, ic except tid1 which hs indexes ia and ib
ii go to edit mode and edit ic for tid1 in the table
iii. Tiddlytables creates field ic, while here it is desired to create 
index ic


C. documentation
as TiddlyTables now supports both fields/indexes, the documentation needs 
to be improved to reflect this. The current docs are based on table from 
fields.

Alternatively, you can set tbl-show-pagination to true or false to force it

(tbl-style-table) 
set to *width:100%; *and set *Container* (tbl-style-container) to whatever 
you like; for instance: *width:80%;*

I hope this helps,
Alan

Hi Alan,

More comments

   1. When the limit on the footer set to show all you, the pagination 
   disappeared and you can not set a new limit and one has to edit the tiddler 
   and set the tbl-limit field
   2. When the width set to some values less than 100% none of footer 
   (pagination) nor the red strip (warning for delete all tiddlers) follow the 
   width setting and occupy the 100% of tiddler width

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Hi Alan,
 - Please upgrade TW to 5.1.21 and if you like to 5.1.22p but 5.1.20 has 
some issues
 - If you put the project on GitHub you can have all issues reported in one 
place and archive them
 - People may contribute

As Diego asked if you have time or when you have it would be great to 
document the code for possible contribution and development
while it is also a learning resource.

Best
Mohammad

Hey Alan,

*This is great! Thank you!* May I suggest expanding the

[Mohammad]

Brilliant!

It is an amazing resource of modular pure wikitext and show the power of 
Tiddlywiki transclusion/templating and abstraction!
I never could imagine how a complex table can itself suited inside a row of 
another table!

In my opinion TiddlyTable shows how effectively base classes (template) can 
be used to create complex UI

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

TiddlyTables 0.6.20 is now available at: tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/

This release includes:

   - New column template utilizing the Radio Widget. column* tbl-radio* 
   renders a radio input that sets field *tbl-selected-record* of the 
   current table to the selected record.
   - Title param included by default when clicking *new table button*.
   - *tbl-show-mode* - dedicated toggle in options menu (and defaults) to 
   toggle the mode button. Now the editor and mode buttons can be hidden 
   independently.
   - Several important Bugfixes.
   - Special thanks to Mohammad and Eric Shulman for their contributions to 
   this release.

Mohammad, I thought about it and I cannot recall why I decided to go that 
route. Another option would be to use the tag macro. My best guess is I 
didn't know about either of these options at the time. I like the 
simplicity of your suggested template and will change to it in the next 
release. Thanks for pointing it out, excellent feedback as always!

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Hi Alan,
 I realized for tags template you have developed your own template! I think 
you can use the core template for this purpose.

So, in $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/body/tags
replace the content with below

>>
<$tiddler 
tiddler=<>>{{||$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/tags}}


where tagclass is used to adjust the margin as TW margin is high for table 
cell

.tagclass .tc-tags-wrapper{ margin:2px 0px; }


What do you think?

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Thanks Tony,
I agree wholeheartedly. I envision a library with hundreds of themes and 
column templates that can be dragged into a wiki, as well as code snippets 
and usage examples. The modular design lends itself to such a library. Yes, 
you are correct. The table that contains the "tbl-" fields can be dragged 
into another wiki. if it does not contain the macro call <> in its 
text field then the only additional step would be to add that in the 
imported tiddler or in another tiddler with the title parameter. ie <>. But of course it will not currently export the 
associated record tiddlers. I like the idea of exporting an entire table 
including the data. Perhaps the plugin/shadow mechanism could be used to 
pack the whole table and records into a single tiddler and then after 
dragging into a new wiki it can be unpacked. Just thinking out loud, but 
one way or another that is a good idea that merits further investigation. 
.

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[TonyM]

Alan,

As earlier this is great. Like all the great developments in tiddlywiki it 
provides flexibility and productivity.

I would be keen to see an "aftermarket" in tiddlytables where productive, 
supportive tables can be shared. 

Am I correct in thinking as long as one has the plugin, most tables will be 
represented by the single table tiddler? Thus a table can be exported as 
the current tiddler, I can see creating a new export option that exports 
the table and the tiddlers listed in the *Query Records* (tbl-filter) - 
filter

If not perhaps there is a way we can have an export table button. Of course 
another one that also exports the data tiddlers would also be welcome, 
these can be exported to a single json file.

I am currently studying tiddlytables for the possibility of adding virtual 
/ calculated columns, or defining columns in the table not in the records 
such that we can place macros or other wiki text in these columns. This is 
not unlike the current special columns.

Thanks so much
Tony

I expect it may be an extension of the

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

I have uploaded the latest release of TiddlyTables 0.6.18 to 
http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/

There are some major changes since 0.6.15. Some of the big ones are:

   - Options Menu/UI
  - Column Templates can be created/assigned/edited from the options 
  menu. 
  - Style can be tweaked graphically in the options menu.
  - New themes can be created from the options menu.
   - Using tags for assigning columns to templates has been replaced with 
   the field tbl-column-list.
  - using tags still works for backwards compatibility
  - new field tbl-noedit in all templates allows similar assignment of 
  columns to prevent entering edit mode. 
   - Ctrl-Enter will close the options menu similar to editing a tiddler.
   - Transclusion issues/fixes
   - Transclusion error trapping
  - New macro parameter, title.
 - example: <>
 - Allows the data fields for the table to be stored in a tiddler 
 you specify.
 - increases functionality and reduces transclusion errors when 
 used.
  
Please try out the new features and let me know what you think.
Cheers,
Alan

Mohammad,
I was unable to reproduce the bug as described. However I have been aware 
of some issues with transclusion and have include some major enhancements 
in the latest release to correct them. There are quite a few new features 
that I will highlight in my next post. I think with a bit more 
testing/tweaks we can call this thing a stable 1.0. Please feel free to

 The rev 0.6.15 has a bug can be simply resolved. It is about transclusion 
a tiddler itself transcludes some of its fields.
 See HC Haase bug report here:

As an end-user. Lots I could say. I have three main observations ...

The SORTING of columns is the best I have seen in TW. It has been done a 
few times before but this is the best I have seen. Elegant, minimal UI. 
Works.

 *Suggestion*: A self-contained plugin that simply sorts tables could be a 
spin-off that would be widely adopted?


The MODULARITY is very helpful to users like me who want to use but don't 
understand code or want to get into it. I agree with Mohammad that its a 
great example to learn from about how to modularise.

The COMPLEXITY/RICHNESS is brilliant. But I think you need an example that 
starts "minimal" and then, through simpler steps, works up to "maximal".  
(Hope that is clear!)

Great tool!
Best wishes
TT

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Hi Alan,
 These are great enhancements:

   - supporting data tiddlers
   - edit/read mode with toggle button


Just a commend
Editing a cell in a column used to sort table may loose focuses specially 
when the edited cell move up/down based on the new value

 Tagging is good in  GG (web version). Very helpful when you search

 Your major search tag should likely be " tables ".

[Alan Aldrich]

Hi Mohammad,
The delete button in the header template: 
$:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/header/delete 

 creates 
the "state" tiddler: $:/temp/tables/delete-all. This tiddler ensures there 
is at least one record in the list and causes the delete confirmation to 
reveal above the table. If the user confirms or cancels the delete, this 
state tiddler must be deleted to hide the confirmation.

BTW, per your last message, I have added support for data-dictionary 
tiddlers and index values. I will 
update http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/ and send out an announcement 
later today hopefully.

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[HansWobbe]

@ Alan:

I added the "z_tag" tag and so must apologize for not checking with you 
first.

I am very fond of TiddlyTables and as a result I tagged your Introductory 
post that way as part of a test to see if using Tags is an effective way to 
help folks find useful things in this googleGroups environment. 

Regards,
Hans

@ TT:

Since Tags are displayed in alphabetical order, I used the "z_"... to push 
the tag to the left.  This is useful in a positionalNotation since that 
effectively corresponds to the use of indices in a coordinate system ( like 
the 128 x 256 x 256 x 256 unicode structure ) since Groups, Sheets, Rows 
and Columns can also be used to associate attributes to the dimensions of 
higher dimensional arrays.

I know; TMI = T(oo) M(uch) I(nformation).  But you did ask. :-)

Cheers,
Hans

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Hi Alan,
 This is really great! 
It is funny, I tried to make editable tables based on TiddlyTables in few 
last days! I sent a version for your review comments

By the way some initial feedback


   1. When you are in edit mode and you sort a column, then you cannot edit 
   it at the same time
   2. Tiddlywiki will lose its focus if you change cell values of sorted 
   column
   3. You may freeze the column table sorted by it (that is what I did in 
   my simple version)

You may also add feature to generate table NOT only from fields by also 
from index:values from json and data tiddlers.


Many thanks for your elegant code and documentation!


Cheers
Mohammad

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

All,
I updated TiddlyTables with an enhancement I hope you enjoy - *read/edit 
mode toggle for all columns*. 
http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/
Victor's request got me thinking this should be a standard feature. There 
is a new option under "Editor/Mode" in the edit menu called "Mode". This 
dropdown is linked to the field "tbl-mode" of a table. When set to "edit" 
it causes all fields to use the edit template. Some columns like title, 
modified and created are excluded. I plan to document this feature in more 
detail soon. Please give it a try and let me know what you think. 
Additionally, I corrected an issue with the delete column. It should work 
better now.

Mohammad,
I would like to eventually get TiddlyTables and maybe the Task Manager into 
the plugin directory. Both plugins are still in beta as I wanted to get 
feedback from the community before rolling to v1.0. The Task Manager could 
be refined a bit more and I would like to develop a little more 
documentation for it and TiddlyTables before I promote them too much. I 
would love to get more technical feedback on the code in case there are 
some optimizations that can be made. I may need to post something on 
TiddlyWikiDev for that. In any case, I think the next big milestone is the 
1.0 stable release. I want to make sure there aren't any missing use cases, 
documentation is adequate, and of course no bugs. Thank you for your 
feedback so far and thanks in advance for any future testing/feedback.

TT,
Not sure what z_tag was but I removed it.

Cheers,
Alan

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[TiddlyTweeter]

Why has this thread got a tag " z_tag "? What is that about?

I added a " tables " tag to the thread.

Tagging is good in  GG (web version). Very helpful when you search later. 
Your major search tag should likely be " tables ".

This gets it at the moment: GG search on author & subject 

.

Best wishes

[Mohammad]

Alan,
 It worth to introduce Task Manager plugin 

 
in a separate post to community!
 It is quite powerful and has many use cases.

http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/#%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Faaldrich%2Ftask-manager
Example 3: http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/#Introducing%20TiddlyTables


@David Gifford
Please add Task Manager to Tiddlywiki toolmap.

Thanks Hans,
Considering the math operators from TW-5.1.20+ I think TiddlyTables has 
potential to be a simple spreadsheet!

It's great to see you again!

Your initial TiddlyTable comments have already stimulated several ideas for 
me, in spite of the fact that I was an early adapter and now use it 
continuously in my daily work.  It's always interesting to see things from

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Alan,
 I will send you examples and some idea.

For now

 I think part of Tony proposal is now implemented in current TiddlyTables!
 The template mechanism TiddlyTables use can handle easily fields types as 
Tony asked.
 Right now, template displays for example tags or created with a special 
format! It can be used
 for other fields like email, phone number, url, and other type ...
 Thanks to the modular design and tiddler concept you have used in 
Tiddlytables.


-With the math operators in TW 5.1.20+ TiddlyTables can easily produces 
extra results like
-- average, min, max, sum, product, ... of all entries in a column so, like 
tbl-expand or tbl-delete template
   one can have a record like tbl-sum to add a row with sum of entries in a 
column.

- In my lite version, I have added an Edit/View button. On click all user 
fields can be edited inline this make a huge flexibility
  for example, I have 20 tiddlers each hold a student data. I create a 
Table using TiddlyTables and click the edit mode
  I can directly edit the table cell so, I can fields can be automatically 
added to tiddlers with new values

NOTE: no need to add fields in advance, TiddlyTables in edit mode lets add 
them automatically (when you edit a cell)

-- I use TiddlyTables for investigating several tiddlers in one place for 
text, fields, tags, etc,...

More description will come, I will also share my lite version soon

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[TonyM]

Alan,

I just thought I would drop a quick note for when you decide to progress 
with this. I already have a method I developed in another solution that has 
some features you may like. It would make sense to set some standards that 
will help users as well as your design. I will do a short brain dump.

This method was designed building a complex tiddlywiki, however each 
innovation made it easier to add more sophisticated features. This could be 
used in your tables, in lists, in forms and much more. It also overcomes 
limitation on editing the current tiddler. I propose a joint effort with 
others.

   - Provide a method for each tiddler to be viewed in read, update and 
   edit modes (A Global setting)
  - Read only
  - Update - point and click value changing
  - Edit edit the field by multiple means
  - Optional additional modes by tiddler/ field macro use
   - Allow this setting to be overridden with a local value in each tiddler
   - When referencing a field (or tiddler column) use a macro such as 
   `<>` which responds to the mode at display time, using 
   currentTiddler.
  - It does this by looking up a "field definition tiddler" eg 
  $:/field/fieldname
  - This tiddler could contain column titles and more for a given field 
  to be listed in a table. We could load it with sort and other tricks
  - $:/field/fieldname provides a reference to a fieldtype eg 
  $:/fieldtype/typename
  - The field types are less in number to field definitions 
  - Field types store transcludable code for each mode read update and 
  edit. To display the field
   
The advantages are

   - There is far less code this way as we abstract fields into reusable 
   field definitions and reusable field-types
   - Whenever the field macro is used you can change the mode and the table 
   in your case will suddenly become fully editable according to the methods 
   defined in the field/field-type 
   - The Field macro can include an override pushing any desired field into 
   a particular mode, so a table can be read only yet column two cell content 
   is editable.
   - These definitions can be shared in the community saving a lot of time 
   (See below for a list of field-types I already have)
   - I created an add on designer process so one could use `<>` click to create field definition, then select or create the 
   field-type, making design very quick.

Some field types I have already defined

My Project was called landscape because it had lots of fields in the 
landscape.

Hi Mohammed,
Thank you for your kind words and support! I wish I could dedicate more 
time to TiddlyWiki and TiddlyTables. I agree with everything you said and I 
plan on expanding the functionality as well as the documentation. There are 
some features that could be optimized with the introduction of new TW 
filters and Widget enhancements and there are a few new features I would 
like to build in. For example, I would like to add a UI for swapping style 
and column templates and an easy way to toggle between read/edit mode. If 
you have any ideas for the next release please share. I am happy to hear 
others are using my plugin and I would love to see some examples. It might 
give me some ideas for enhancements if I saw how others are using it. Time 
is the limiting factor for me right now, but I hope that will change in the 
coming months. Thanks again for your great feedback.

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Mohammad]

Hi Alan,

I was studying the TiddlyTables in last few days. This is a really great 
piece of work.

It uses the tiddler philosophy and one can learn Tiddlywiki scripting 
(wikitext language) by studying TiddlyTables.

The way TiddlyTables uses to construct rows and columns and format them 
using template is amazing.
The modular approach and the ease of extending it  is awesome. It uses 
transclusion in many ways and produce a very complex dynamic table.

Also, the plugin Task Manager which has been developed using TiddlyTables 
shows how powerful it is.

I highly recommend to add more documentation to it and let TiddlyTable acts 
as la earning resource. Also ask Jeremy to add it to tiddlywiki.com 
resources (https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#Community).

TiddlyTables can be also used for inspection and inline viewing and editing 
bulk of tiddlers. 

I used your approach and some of your templates to create macros as a very 
lite version in Shiraz 2.0.0 plugin called dynamic tables hopefully will be 
published in a very near future. 

Note: I would recommend to add your answers to questions raised in forum as 
documentation to tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com 

Best wishes
Mohammad

Hi Chuck,
5.1.16. is the required minimum version of TW. I'm not sure what all is 
necessary to have it added to the plugin library but I am for it. 
Cheers,
Alan

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Hi Victor,
Yes, with some prep work and a few caveats: 1) the "title" column cannot be 
edited. A row cannot exist with a blank title because a tiddler cannot have 
a blank title. Remember a row is a tiddler and a column is a field. So 
adding rows requires editing "tbl-add-records" or using the method shown in 
example #3 at http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/. 2) Columns are fields so 
the title of the column cannot contain spaces. adding a column title with a 
space requires a unique header template for that field. I will not cover 
that here. 3) Column templates are global. For example, making the tags 
column editable in one table makes it editable in all tables.

Lets say you want a table with the following columns: title, caption, tags, 
list, type and new-field. all of which editable except title.

   1. Create the table. Add these columns and modify the filter or add 
   manual records.
   2. Add the tags: "caption" "tags" "list" "type" and "new-field" to 
   $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/body/edit 
   

   .
   3. Remove the tag "tags" from 
   $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/body/tags 
   
.
 
   This is required because a column must be assigned to one template only. 
   title, tags, created and modified are the only standard fields tagged to 
   special templates.
   4. (Optional) Create a button that adds/removes these tags automatically 
   so you can easily toggle between read/edit mode.

For your second question, you can create a new custom column templates for 
tags by first removing the tag "tags" from 
$:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/body/tags 

 as 
we did above and tagging a new tiddler with "tags" and 
"$:/tags/table/BodyTemplate". There are actually three types of column 
templates: header, body and footer. I have documented this a bit more under 
the "More Columns" option in the edit menu. Also see "Advanced Features" in 
the edit menu for some useful parameters when making a custom template. 

I hope this helps,
Alan

[Chuck R.]

Very nice, thank you Alan! I have some questions.

What's the minimum version of TW5 that is required to use this? 
Can this be added to the main wiki at http://tiddlywiki.com as a tool or 
addon? 
I was writing in markdown for my tiddlers but this might be the reason I 
convert to writing in TW.

Very odd, I'm not seeing my questions turned into bullets.

Hi Alan,

i'm wondering if it's possible to have every column "in-line editable"? 
Additionally I wanted to know how to use a different ViewTemplate 
especially for the tags column? Thanks in advance.

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Hans,
The selected stylesheet (tbl-class) determines how a link is displayed. The 
default stylesheet is defined 
in: $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/style/standard  The rest of the built-in 
stylesheets inherit their CSS from this tiddler. 

I designed the default stylesheet to override default link formatting in 
order to make the table look more consistent by making links "blend in" 
better with plain text. There are several CSS properties that contribute to 
this. For example, all blocks under comment  contain the 
properties color, text-decoration and font-weight. These properties change 
the color of links, remove the underline (text-decoration) and force the 
font weight (bold or normal depending on if it is a header, footer or body 
element). 

All that said, you can certainly change the way links are displayed. You 
can either edit the default stylesheet or start fresh with a blank one. 

By the way, CamelCase links render the same as other links in TW, an  
element with "tc-tiddlylink" class. Just in case you are asking how to make 
CamelCase links render differently than other links i.e. ExampleLink vs. 
[[example link]], I suspect that is not possible without changes to the 
core. 

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Alan

Just to let you know, TiddlyTables has become an integral part of my 
TiddlyWiki workFlow, that I have bundled with a select few other plugins to 
create the functionality and flexibility I need as both a User and a 
Hacker.  

After a month of intense use during which I adapted my data to its native 
capabilities, I have only one minor question.


   1. Can you suggest an effective way to make CamelCase links that appear 
   in rendered views of the table distinctly links?  They are effective inks 
   and can be used as such, but I wold like to add a bit of css or markup to 
   make them more evident.


Thank you very much for sharing this great plugin.

I've been cautiously testing your TiddlyTables creation for some time now.  
First and foremost, I think its a wondrous tool!  Thank you very much for 
sharing this creation.

The capabilities you have built into it are literally changing my entire 
view of how to manage a large and growing number of tiddlers  

In a nut shell, I believe it will be possible to manage the 50,000 plus 
tiddlers that the recent Indexing enhancement facilitates, via a single 
table that uses just one field containing an extremely large alphabet of 
symbols in various combinations and permutations.

My preliminary tests have gone well enough that I have already decided to 
start the process of consolidating all of the tiddlers I've accumulated 
during the last decade, so that they can be updated and incorporated into 
what I see as a high-density information repository.

I truly appreciate what you have accomplished and your generosity in 
sharing it.

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Ah, I see what you are asking Tony and yes this is possible too. Let me 
walk you through it. 

   1. Copy an existing body template or create a new one. For this example 
   we will start from scratch.
  1. Create a new tiddler 
  called $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/body/alt-title (it can be 
titled 
  anything you want)
  2. Tag this tiddler with:
 1.  $:/tags/table/BodyTemplate
 2. alt-title
  3. use the following for the text field:
 1. 
 <$view tiddler=<> field="title"/>
 
 2. you can change this to whatever fits your needs but the 
 important part is it is rendering the "title" of the "currentRecord"
  4. Add "alt-title" to your table's columns (tbl-columns)
  5. Now you should have a table with both "title" and "alt-title" as 
  columns, where "title" is formatted as a link and "alt-title" is plain 
text.
   2. Now, let's say you don't want the header to say "alt-title" you want 
   it to just say "title".
   3. Let's also assume you want the header to remain sortable. In that 
   case we will clone $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/header/default
  1. Clone this template and lets give it the name: 
  $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/header/alt-title (again, any name 
will 
  do)
  2. Add the tag "alt-title"
   4. The default (sortable) header is one of the more complex templates. 
   To change the displayed header title you will need to replace 
   <>
   with 
   title
   in three places:
  1. Line 4
  2. Line 17
  3. Line 29
   5. Now you should have two columns in your table with the same header 
   text, "title", both with different formats. You can then remove the 
   original title column, leaving your table with its own unique formatting of 
   the title column.

I hope this helps,
Alan

But what If I only want to change the template for title in one table, not 
all ?

Are you open to some turbo charge improvement ideas? Or waiting to 
stabilize the current solution?

Thanks in advance

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Mohammed,
Absolutely! I will assume you wish to use the class element for styling 
purposes and so I will focus on that. There are many options for styling a 
table. After you create a new table, click the Edit button and display the 
tables options, navigate to the first option under "Style" called "Template 
(Stylesheet)". this page displays a dropdown with choices that correspond 
to the stylesheets included in the plugin. The dropdown's value is stored 
in the field "tbl-class" and you can manually edit this field with any 
value you wish. an empty value will result in the table inheriting 
TiddlyWiki's table styling. The easiest way to create a new stylesheet is 
to clone $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/style/standard and give it a new class 
name (tbl-class-name). You will then see your new stylesheet as an option 
on the dropdown. 

Keep this in mind. the class attribute defined in tbl-class is an attribute 
on a div element that acts as a container for the table element. This can 
be seen in: $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/macro.

Another option is to override parts of the selected stylesheet. In the Edit 
menu navigate to "Override (Inline Styles)". Here you can enter css 
properties for the table element or the div container that will take 
priority over the stylesheet. 

Lastly, there are two more options Under "Style" in the Edit menu. "Column 
Groups" and "Advanced Styles". 

   - Column groups are useful for applying css properties to individual 
   columns. Here is some more info on 
   that: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/colgroup
   - Advanced Styles documents a method for applying a style to an 
   individual row in a table.

Thank you for your questions and feedback Mohammad. I hope this helps,
Alan

Thanks Arlen! TiddlyTables is a great contribution!

One question: Is it possible to simply add classes or override the default 
classes for Tables?

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

All,
Thank you for your feedback. I couldn't agree more that the documentation 
for TiddlyTables needs improvement. I will try my best to do so in future 
releases. I have tried to integrate some of the documentation into the Edit 
menu. Advanced Styles, Advanced Features, More Columns and Getting Started 
all contain helpful information, but more is on the way. In the meantime, I 
started writing down a few paragraphs to cover a couple of the more 
advanced topics. I highly recommend reading through it and walking through 
the example I give. It can be found here: 
http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/#Digging%20deeper%20into%20TiddlyTables

Another resource is the task manager example plugin (shown in the sidebar) 
which illustrates most of TiddlyTable's use cases. It consists of three 
separate tables, one nested inside the other:

$:/plugins/aaldrich/task-manager/realm-table
$:/plugins/aaldrich/task-manager/project-table
$:/plugins/aaldrich/task-manager/task-table

To enable the Edit menu for these tables, change the value of the field 
"tbl-show-edit" to "true" for each. This will enable the "Edit" button, 
making it easier to see how these tables were built and how they work 
together.

Let me know if this information was helpful and/or if there are any other 
topics I should focus on in lieu of formal documentation. 

Thanks,
Alan

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Tony, 
I am putting together some info that may clarify some of your questions and 
will post that next, but I want to speak to a couple of your bullet points:


   - A Table of tables filter `[contains:text[<>]]` I did not expect 
   that to work give the special meaning of < and >

I have not played much with the contains operator, but I am also pleasantly 
surprised to see that you can put virtually anything in as its parameter 
and it will search for it. not only will it do < and > but you can search 
on just about any symbol except square brackets. This of course has nothing 
to do with my plugin, but with the contains operator. The filter you 
mention here is searching all tiddlers "text" fields for <> which is 
a fairly safe way to determine if the tiddler is a table or not.

   - I am not sure if I can change the template for the title column for a 
   specific table?
   
You absolutely can and this is what makes TiddlyTables so powerful. 
Basically, the elements of the table are all modular and are controlled by 
templates. I will go into detail about editing templates in my next post, 
but the template that controls the body of the title column 
is: $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/template/body/title.


   I note you can place any table in the sidebar with $:/tags/SideBar 
but you need to set the tiddler
   eg
   <$tiddler tiddler="Has Changed">
   <>
   

Let me explain what is happening here. A TiddlyTable gets its parameters 
from the fields that are created when the table is created. Essentially, a 
table requires its own tiddler to store these fields. We can call them 
"table tiddlers". Notice when you click the table button a new tiddler is 
created and it contains the default table. If you edit this tiddler you 
will see its text is just <> and it has 29 fields that serve as its 
parameters. When you set TiddlerA's text to use the tiddler widget like you 
show here, what you are really asking is for TiddlyTables to store these 29 
parameters to a Tiddler called "Has Changed" but render in TiddlerA. The 
same effect can be achieved using transclusion, and in the case of using 
"$:/tags/SideBar" 
the table MUST be transcluded or it will not find the parameters its 
looking for. This is a limitation of the "non-standard" implementation of 
macros I am using, and I mention it in Known Issues/Limitations. My next 
post will have a link in it that describes this further.

These are great questions, keep them coming!

For fun whilst learning more on TiddlyTables


   - SImply put it is a new way of looking at any filter

   that to work give the special meaning of < and >

I will keep exploring this.

I would like to see a one button create table from filter.

One more point!

*No JS and all WikiText*

You did amazing job!


If you had time in future that would be great to create a similar API 
documentation
I mean how code works and what are different macros, ...
TiddlyTables has a lot to be learnt!

Love it!

I highly recommend for much clear documentation!
Start with simple example and then complex ones step by step

Not all newbies can start 
from http://tiddlytables.tiddlyspot.com/#Introducing%20TiddlyTables

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[TonyM]

Alan,

Thanks, I am just exploring the possibilities of tiddlytables. Since the 
minimum one needs is a filter it is a great way to simply list tiddlers of 
any type. But then a custom table with custom fields can expose other 
details.


I also appreciate the drop down on the *Query Records* (tbl-filter) - 
filter syntax
Quite a few people have being asking for help for writing filters and you 
have already done it.

It would be great in an editor toolbar button as well.

A simple example is
[all[shadows]prefix[$:/info]!prefix[$:/info/browser]] [[$:/info/browser/name
]]

and show the text field.

Regards
Tony

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Thank you Diego, 

You refreshed my memory on why I haven't fixed this yet. The 
tm-delete-tiddler message works great on the body template button (for 
deleting individual records) but it doesn't work as well in the header 
template button (for deleting all visible records) because it doesn't allow 
a filter as its input like the ActionDeleteTiddlerWidget does, at least not 
that I know of. I could create a Modal that pops up and asks for a 
confirmation for the header button. Do you know of another way?

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[Alan Aldrich]

Tony,

The layout utilizes the  elements. Here is the tiddler 
that controls that: $:/plugins/aaldrich/tables/view.
I may not understand your suggestion fully, but printing a table (one that 
is long enough to span multiple sheets) should produce the expected 
results. That is, the header and footer repeat on each page and rows are 
not cut off. I have tested this in Firefox and Chrome. Are you seeing 
something different? What browser are you using?

Hey Alan,

I see that your plugin uses the ActionDeleteTiddlerWidget:

https://tiddlywiki.com/#ActionDeleteTiddlerWidget

According to the docs:

There are several differences compared to the WidgetMessage:

[tw5] Re: [TW5] Introducing TiddlyTables a plugin for creating sortable tables.

[TonyM]

Alan,

Since your solution is quite exhaustive I am yet to discover its details.

I note you have addressed screen pagination very well. 

I Just wanted to point out that if displaying a single table (without 
screen pagination) we can open the tiddler in a new window and print it 
(often to PDF) it would be great (with print pagination). I have learned of 
later this is fairly trivial for table only by including 
`` tags in the html table layout. Avoiding a break in 
TD's is almost all that needs to be done.

Please consider this as an enhancement. This would make tiddlywiki a 
powerful way to publish tabulated data.

Regards
Tony

Hey Alan,

This is wonderful! I am playing around with it and very impressed!! I will 
have more thoughts as I continue to play around, but in the meantime, I 
would strongly suggest making the suggestion you already have listed:

"Confirmation before deletion on delete column."

be a much higher priority. I think *nothing* in TW should cause deletion 
without confirmation. 

Thanks for all your excellent work!

Alan,

Thanks so much for sharing this to the community. I have started 
investigating and its looks great. I see you have put in the work to 
publish it. I have being working with tables and field definitions of late 
myself so will provide a feedback if I can. 

It is perhaps not possible for me to incorporate this into some existing 
solutions but I see great value going forward.

[Cade Roux]

This is very exciting for me.  I'm using a lot of tables of test results 
generated from my data warehouse build/deploy/test process.  Currently they 
are regular TiddlyTables of the form |column|column|column| with checkboxes 
for when individual test case results have been validated against 
requirements but this looks like it could be a good avenue to get more 
functionality.

I look forward to checking it out soon.

Thanks,

Cade
