Re: [twdev] Re: [TW5] Accessing JSON tiddler data

2018-02-05 Thread Joshua Fontany
Per the thread I opened on github, we need to keep it compatible with
existing wikis that may use those types of "path strings" as top level
index names. Having the code automatically try both the top-level
string-index _and_ the nested object index and then somehowd3cide which one
to use in each case was getting overcomplex. And that's just reading data
not writing to index/path addresses. Simplest solution is to have a
parallel "path" operator for text references so it falls on the user to
decide which approach would be best for any given data-toddler (with a
fallback to stringify nested objects if ## is used on a nested
data-tiddler). Currently, nesting just breaks ## completely.

Re: [twdev] Re: [TW5] Accessing JSON tiddler data

2018-02-04 Thread Joshua Fontany
Coming back around to this after a bit.

I think the best way to preserve backwards compatibility is to setup a new 
text-reference field-name prefix.

!! = tiddler field-name reference
## = data tiddler index-name reference

What would a good doubled-char prefix be for 'nested json data-tiddler 
path-name'?

Is @@ reserved for anything? What would be another good one? 

@@
||
>>

The idea would be to have a parallel method to invoke parsing through the 
nested-json style structures and returning a data (or a stringified piece 
of text for data that includes further nesting) with the new prefix. Then 
alter the ## flat-json data tiddler function have a fallback to return a 
stringified piece of text, if the top-level index referenced provided data 
with nested sub-objects/arrays/etc.

Best,
Joshua F

For my part, I suspect that the use of brackets in JSON path and company 
would prevent the syntax from being usable in filter expressions.  The 
filter-parser will interpret the first right-bracket as closing the operand.

 Relevant functions in the TiddlyWiki core code:  getTextReference -->

 Looks like internally, the whole JSON structure is parsed, but 
 extractTiddlerDataItem has no rule to look for a delimiter (like ".") and

 Currently, I "flatten" my JSON tiddlers with another plugin I made in
