There's something fundamental about filters that I'm not getting:
in the advanced search filter tester thingie, this works:
EXAMPLE 1:
[is[current]][tag[Subjective]]-[!regexp:dates[2020-05-01]]
i.e. it lists the single tiddler with the dates field
but in a viewtemplate tiddler:
EXAMPLE 2:
<$set name="mytoday" value="{{my-now}}">
<$list filter="[is[current]][tag[Subjective]]-[!regexp:dates[2020-05-01]]"
variable=null>
{{||SubjectiveTemplate}}
</$list></$set>
it doesn't work
this does work (carets not really in code, just to point out the
difference):
EXAMPLE 3:
<$set name="mytoday" value="{{my-now}}">
<$list
filter="[is[current]]-[!tag[Subjective]]-[!regexp:dates[2020-05-01]]"
variable=null>
^ ^
{{||SubjectiveTemplate}}
</$list></$set>
but this doesn't work:
EXAMPLE 4:
<$set name="mytoday" value="{{my-now}}">
<$list filter="[is[current]]-[!tag[Subjective]]-[!regexp:dates[<<mytoday>>]]"
variable=null>
^
{{||SubjectiveTemplate}}
</$list></$set>
all tiddlers are rendered as a match
and neither does this:
EXAMPLE 5:
<$set name="mytoday" value="{{my-now}}">
<$list filter="[is[current]]-[!tag[Subjective]]-[!regexp:dates<<mytoday>>]"
variable=null>
^
{{||SubjectiveTemplate}}
</$list></$set>
no tiddlers are rendered as a match
Just wondering 2 things:
A) why does EXAMPLE 1 work but not 2? (or why 3 and not 2)
B) Although using <<mytoday>> outside of the filter does return the correct
date, why does it not work inside the filter?
Thanks,
- Dave
