Folks, To cut a long story short I wanted to challenge the group to see if there is a way to extract a tiddler title from an intermediate transclude. attached and Illustrated below;
*Why?*
Because in a number of new methods I am developing this is a gap in what I
can do to simplify the sophisticated (but simple) use of transclusions.
Such a solution could make even smarter transclude methods available and
reduce the code needed to achieve them, or the need for changes in the core
to expand designer options when building wikis.
Here are three tiddlers you can create on Tiddlywiki.com (use JSON file if
you want)
Display tiddler
<h2>Display Tiddler</h2>
Current Tiddler=<<currentTiddler>><br>
Display Tiddler=<<storyTiddler>>
;Simple Transclude (1)
{{||intermediate}}
;Transclude with tiddlername (2)
{{tiddlername||intermediate}}
intermediate tiddler
\define intermediate() intermediate
<h2>Intermediate Tiddler</h2>
Intermediate Tiddler=<<intermediate>><br>
Current Tiddler=<<currentTiddler>><br>
Display Tiddler=<<storyTiddler>>
{{||final}}
final tiddler
<h2>final tiddler</h2>
<h3>How can I find the tiddler name of the intermediate tiddler here?</h3>
Intermediate Tiddler=<<intermediate>><br>
Current Tiddler=<<currentTiddler>><br>
Display Tiddler=<<storyTiddler>>
One solution is to edit the intermediate tiddler as in the example and
define a variable based on a literal
\define intermediate() intermediate
as included in the above.
*However*
- I am looking for a way to avoid editing the intermediate tiddler to
provide its name as a literal
- I would accept a programmatic way to store the intermediate name in
intermediate but ideally I would like to avoid editing "intermediate" at
all
- Is there a way to derive this intermediate tiddler title by other
means in final?
- What if there was a second intermediate tiddler?
*Hacking*
- Perhaps there is a way to get/set the last tiddler "doing the
transclude" in "final" by altering the transclude mechanism?
- What if we could somehow determine the full branch used to get to any
level deep
- eg (in final) display intermediate final
or (in final) display $:/core/ui/Buttons/edit final
Thanks in advance
Regards
Tony
