Absolutely, this would be a central consideration. It would be very useful 
to be able to comfortably edit and add media to the wiki whilst a real-time 
program is running!

That's a good thing to read. I just wanted to be sure, that there is some 
discussion going on.

As I wrote, that should be possible too. ... But I'm not sure, how you 
would want to implement it. .. IMO for a "low latency" system, it's 
important, that only the stuff that's really needed is running. ... So the

Thanks for the replies everyone. It certainly seems doable!

@Pmario, we have not really proposed this as a definite change, and the 
wiki would still stay on GitHub at least for now. We are interested in 
options for having the wiki available in our environment though so 
TiddlyWiki could be a possibility for that. The benefit that I see is that 
each user could then edit this base wiki to make it their own and document 
their projects, and potentially contribute back to the main wiki.

It can be automated easily; GitHub wikis are stored as repositories behind the 
scenes (see 
https://help.github.com/articles/adding-and-editing-wiki-pages-locally/). So 
you can clone the wiki repo with:

git clone https://github.com/BelaPlatform/Bela.wiki.git

Best wishes

Re: [tw] Re: GitHub MD wiki -> TiddlyWiki?

2017-03-15 Thread Jeremy Ruston 
The core TiddlyWiki 5 plugin library includes one that adds support for 
Markdown tiddlers. It uses “classic” Markdown, rather than GitHub Flavoured 
Markdown, but BJ has an alternative plugin that does support GFM:

http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com/#MarKed

Under Node.js, you can easily process an entire directory of .md files into 
tiddlers. Create a folder within your wiki “tiddlers” folder containing a 
`tiddlywiki.files` file with something like:

{
"directories": [
{
"path": "./path/to/the/folder/containing/the/files",
"filesRegExp": "^.*\\.md$",
"isTiddlerFile": false,
"fields": {
"title": {"source": "filename"},
"created": {"source": "created"},
"modified": {"source": "modified"},
"type": "text/markdown",
}
}
]
}

See http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#tiddlywiki.files%20Files

Best wishes

Jeremy.
