[tw] Re: [TW5] Static Website Generation

Hi James and anyone else listening in, Here is a new question. Hopefully the last - I made good progress today. Here is the question: $:/plugins/welford/staticlinks/helper/vt.tagpage creates pages for each tag, and each page displays the posts tagged with the current tag. It displays them as

Here is a link to the final version of the Spanish website I am putting together with James Anderson's static site generator. http://ideas.giffmex.org It uses four different TW5 standalone files to generate statics for the four different sections of the website. But the banner links coordinate

Re: [tw] Re: [TW5] Static Website Generation

Hi James, Thanks for the fix. I actually fixed 1. as you said myself before I posted the above as it was an easy fix. For 2 I was thinking similarly to what you suggested above but I didn't know a code to detect if a link is to .pdf file (or another local). In fact I know very little about

Re: [tw] Re: [TW5] Static Website Generation

probably before the condition after line 68 of getexportlink.js we could detect if it was a type you were likely to place at the root (e.g. a pdf file) and then not construct the path as below: finalLink = path_to_root + "data/"; James On Saturday, 9 July 2016 19:32:45 UTC+1, James Anderson

Hi James I figured it out! To get things to link back and forth correctly online, I was putting all of the files into one folder. It didn't work right otherwise. But this meant that I needed to change /../../../static.css to static.css Here is a link to my practice area. I also managed to

David, note that you can actually export multiple tiddlers including a filtered set of tiddlers via the Advanced Search -> Filter. Once you enter something into the search field, there's a (barely visible) export button to export the result. (IMO this feature is not located in a good place

Re: [tw] Re: [TW5] Static Website Generation

Hi MatIn what way is the "export as HTML" feature not enough for people?The browser-based “Export as HTML” feature *is* static site generation. The reason that people generally do it under Node.js is that that makes it easier to produce multiple HTML files (eg one per blog post).Or, I should put

Hi Mat, You asked, "In what way is the "export as HTML" feature not enough for people?" 1) With "export as HTML" I have to export each tiddler individually. With James' way I can do all kinds of work on numerous tiddlers throughout the day and do one operation to update the site at the end of

Haha, in reading your .bat file contents, it looks like you used a prefix I have on some of my old system TWs ($:/_aa.giff/) and applied it to your StyleSheetAnimate tiddler. Wasn't expecting to see "giff" anywhere in there! Dave Gifford On Wednesday, July 6, 2016 at 5:47:07 AM UTC-5, sini-Kit

yeah, it's not beginner friendly. I'll update my post to mention NodeJS and the contents of the batch file. I think my plugin at least helps simplify some of the conversion, though you do still need a working knowledge of TW and batch files. David, would you mind sharing your source TW file?

Agreed - using Node.js to generate static files via the command line is NOT beginner-friendly; I found it difficult to understand at first, and was only able to do it after a few weeks of frustration. On Wednesday, July 6, 2016 at 7:53:26 AM UTC+10, Josiah wrote: > > all > > this whole thing is
