[tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[Felicia Crow]

Tony,

Last post here as an answer, will open a new topic with the solution after 
rewriting it.

Sorry, when you first wrote about global variables I assumed you meant it 
as in a global scope - so usable within the whole wiki - not local to the 
tiddler, this of course changes things somewhat.
Also with your answer I now have a better understanding of what you 
actually wish to achieve, which will take some time to rewrite what I have 
to allow filters to set variables, especially since I am not sure if you 
mean tiddlywiki filters or filters especially written for the macro, with 
the first maybe being very easy or not depending on how getTiddler is setup 
to work on non existent tiddlers.
What I thought you meant from your first question was more along the lines 
of a mixture between set and actionSetField widgets so having a more global 
place to set/get variables without having to use a button to asign the 
value to a field if that makes sense.

My current solution uses a simplet getter/setter setup plus the ability to 
save variables to a tiddler and load them back in on startup. So the logic 
would be still in tiddlywiki itself and only the saving to a global space 
is done via the respective macos.

Regards
Felicia

[TW Tones]

Felicia

Thanks for considering this issue. Perhaps we should start a new thread, 
since this is related but off topic.

Some more thoughts

   - Felicia to be a true "local" variable it would more often be used in a 
   single tiddler so you need not worry about its display elsewhere, however 
   there is I believe mechanisms to refresh the tiddlers and their 
   transclusions in the story.
  - Since this would be quite different behaviour we should perhaps use 
  an alternate defacto naming standard eg _varname or 
  <>
  
  - Where filter can compute the next result?
  - [add[1]] to increment the value
  - 33 to set the value...
   - There is no need to save the value permanently, a separate step can be 
   taken to do this if needed. 
  - For example add an additional action to the save button to save 
  named variables into a field and restore them on load with start up 
actions.
   - A simple way to reload a tiddler is to navigate to itself, however 
   this needs a trigger. 
  - However my thought was the initial load of the tiddler was where 
  the rendering takes place and the variable "increments" during the render 
  leaving its transitory values in the rendered output (if displayed) or 
  affecting the conditional flow.
  - Then once this is finished we can display the final value if needed.
   

In closing

   - This "problem" may face some difficulties in the way tiddlywiki 
   operates
   - From a users designer view point it is however in my view an important 
   gap to fill
   - I can name dozens of cases where this would help.
   - The key difference with such a variable is its use need not be inside 
   an open and close, just to set its value.
   - Perhaps it has to be a widget.

[Felicia Crow]

Hi Tony,

after some testing I may have a first idea, but there are two things:

   - Calls: Javascript macros are called when the tiddler is parsed. So you 
   would need something that rerenders the tiddler - for instance the list 
   widget you mentioned upon changes in the filter result - to call the macro 
   multiple times without closing and reopening the tiddler. As an example if 
   you change your variable in one tiddler and in another already open tiddler 
   get the variable's value it won't be updated until the tiddler is reloaded. 
   I currently don't have an idea for that.
   - Permanent Save: Due to javascript macros not being able to directly 
   write to a field by themselves currently the variables only last as long as 
   the wiki is not closed or reloaded. For this I might have a solution, but 
   will need to play around a little more with it, before being able to say if 
   it actually works or not.

Regards,
Felicia

[tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[TW Tones]

Felicia,

Since you a quite able to build Javascript solutions into Tiddlywiki now, I 
would like to ask a quick question, if it makes sense to you.

Would you know how to define a global variable(s) that we can update 
(repeatedly) via a macro call? As a result it will need to have a step to 
initialise it.

Imagine that inside a list widget someone could conditionally change the 
variable, ie add 1 to a number or set a flag = yes, such that the value can 
be accessed outside of the list widget?

This is a missing mechanism as far as I can see.

Regared

Re: [tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[bimlas]

Not a perfect solution, but you can relatively easily create tables in the 
Javascript console that you can sort by columns by clicking on the header.

*SAVE YOUR WIKI BEFORE TRYING OUT*: Although it is just a query and does 
not change anything, it is better to prevent trouble.

Open the DeveloperTools console in the wiki window (right click anywhere on 
the page -> inspect element -> console tab) and issue this command:

let results = [];
$tw.utils.each($tw.wiki.getMissingTitles(), (tiddler) => {
  const backlinks = $tw.wiki.getTiddlerBacklinks(tiddler).length;

  results.push([
tiddler,
backlinks
  ]);
});
console.table(results);

In another example, we can print a list of tiddlers, which can be sorted by 
the number of links and backlinks:

let results = [];
$tw.wiki.forEachTiddler((tiddler) => {
  const links = $tw.wiki.getTiddlerLinks(tiddler).length;
  const backlinks = $tw.wiki.getTiddlerBacklinks(tiddler).length;

  // Filter unnecessary results
  if(links === 0 && backlinks === 0) return;

  results.push([
tiddler,
links,
backlinks
  ]);
});
console.table(results);

Because the table can display up to 1000 rows, it's a good idea to filter 
out irrelevant results (such as those with no links and backlinks).

Just to be accurate:

"Beckstrom" asked the question.
"Felicia Crow" responded with a solution using javascript code
I re-wrote her solution to use macros and wikitext
"Hans Wobbe" said thank you.

Here's a version that does the same results using just wikitext
instead of javascript:
|
\define getData()
<$list filter="[all[missing]!has[draft.of]sort[title]]">
   <$text text="[["/>{{{
[backlinks[]count[]divide[1000]removeprefix[0.]]
}}};<><$text text="]]"/>

\end

\define renderTable()

MissingTimes Referenced
<$list filter="[enlist!sort[]]">
   
   {{{ [split[;]rest[]join[;]] }}}
   <$text text={{{
[split[;]first[]divide[1]] }}}/>
   


\end

\define renderList()

<$list filter="[enlist!sort[]]">
    {{{ [split[;]rest[]join[;]] }}} (<$text
text={{{ [split[;]first[]divide[1]] }}}/>)


\end

<$list filter="[all[missing]limit[1]]" variable="has_missing_tiddlers"
   emptyMessage="No Missing Tiddlers">
   <$wikify name="missing" text=<>>
   <>
   

|

I patterned the code structure similar to your javascript code.

* the outermost $list checks that there are missing tiddlesr and
displays either "No Missing Tiddlers", or proceed to get the list
of missing tiddlers and show the output
* getData() generates a list all missing tiddlers
* each item in the list is a combination of the backlinks[]count[]
(zero-padded) and the missing tiddler title, separated by a
semi-colon and enclosed in doubled square brackets (to handle
spaces in titles)
* the results of getData() are passed through $wikify to convert
the macro output into an actual list of items
* renderList() and renderTable() enlist[] all items, sorted in
descending order using the zero-padded count, and then splits each
item back into its title and count and then shows the title
followed by the count

enjoy,
-e

[tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[Felicia Crow]

Hi Eric,

I am fascinated by what is possible with tiddlywiki alone. Thanks for 
sharing your solution and letting me learn more about it.

Regards,
Felicia

Here's a version that does the same results using just wikitext instead of 
javascript:
\define getData()
<$list filter="[all[missing]!has[draft.of]sort[title]]">
   <$text text="[["/>{{{ 
[backlinks[]count[]divide[1000]removeprefix[0.]] 
}}};<><$text text="]]"/>

\end

\define renderTable()

MissingTimes Referenced
<$list filter="[enlist!sort[]]">
   
   {{{ [split[;]rest[]join[;]] }}}
   <$text text={{{ 
[split[;]first[]divide[1]] }}}/>
   


\end

\define renderList()

<$list filter="[enlist!sort[]]">
{{{ [split[;]rest[]join[;]] }}} (<$text text={{{ 
[split[;]first[]divide[1]] }}}/>)


\end

<$list filter="[all[missing]limit[1]]" variable="has_missing_tiddlers"
   emptyMessage="No Missing Tiddlers">
   <$wikify name="missing" text=<>>
   <>
   


I patterned the code structure similar to your javascript code.

* the outermost $list checks that there are missing tiddlesr and displays 
either "No Missing Tiddlers", or proceed to get the list of missing 
tiddlers and show the output
* getData() generates a list all missing tiddlers
* each item in the list is a combination of the backlinks[]count[] 
(zero-padded) and the missing tiddler title, separated by a semi-colon and 
enclosed in doubled square brackets (to handle spaces in titles)
* the results of getData() are passed through $wikify to convert the macro 
output into an actual list of items
* renderList() and renderTable() enlist[] all items, sorted in descending 
order using the zero-padded count, and then splits each item back into its 
title and count and then shows the title followed by the count

enjoy,
-e

[tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[Felicia Crow]

Hi,
so after playing around with filter operators and trying to find a way over 
a data tiddler I wrote a javascript macro I attatched below.
The only caveat with this is that you have to close and reopen the tiddler 
calling the macro due to how javascript macros are called. Maybe someone 
has an idea for how to reload a single tiddler.

For now the macro - called simply with <> - renders as a 
list of all missing tiddlers sorted by how often they are referenced:

[image: missingTiddlersList.png]
It can be changed to render as a table by changing this line of code in the 
macro:
return renderList(tiddlerData);

To this:
return renderTable(tiddlerData);

Which then looks like this:

[image: missingTiddlersTable.png]

Please be aware that after importing the macro/changing it you have to 
reload your wiki for it to take effect.

Also as an aside unlike Tony's solution this uses the backlink filter 
operator so it only counts hard links and excludes system tiddlers 
completely. A little more about what hard and soft links are here 
.
The reason I did this is mostly to ensure that these are actual references 
and not just the tiddler title being in the text even if it isn't meant as 
an actual reference.
Should you want to use Tony's solution with search instead of backlinks it 
is easy change the filter either by yourself or I can update the macro.

Regards,
Felicia

[tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[TW Tones]

Sorry,

I accidentally posted before signing off, 

<$list filter="[all[missing]sort[]] -[[New Tiddler]]" 
variable=missing-title>
<$link to=<>/> <$count filter="[all[]search:text
]"/>
   <$list filter="[all[]search:text]">

   

This sorts by title and excludes "New Tiddler" 

As I said

Just ask if you still want the original sorted list, this requires either a 
trick, possibly the new subsort operator or a temporary separate list.

You can see also that perhaps !is[system]] may make sense in your wiki.

Regards
Tony

[tw5] Re: How to generate list of missing tiddlers, sorted by most references

[TW Tones]

Backstrom,

This macro does what I said in my last reply, but without sorting it.
<$list filter="[all[missing]] -[[New Tiddler]]" variable=missing-title>
<$link to=<>/> <$count 
filter="[all[]search:text]"/>
   <$list filter="[all[]search:text]">

   


Note how the majority found on tiddlywiki.com are the result of using 
camelCase
Also click to create the missing tiddler

The next step is to sort the list if you need to but since the sort order 
is a value we determine from our search its not so strait forward.

For a one off or occasional review perhaps the above is sufficient since
