Yep, that worked!
Using the inline filter, your macro definition would look like this:
> \define video(url, w:"400px", h:"300px")
> <iframe width="$w$" height="$h$" src={{{ [[$url$]removeprefix[https://
> www.youtube.com/watch?v=]addprefix[https://www.youtube.com/embed/]] }}}
> frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
> \end
>
As well as this:
One more note... to make the code a bit easier to understand, you could use
> a couple of variables to define the values of the prefixes and the modified
> src URL, like this:
> \define video(url, w:"400px", h:"300px")
> <$vars old="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v="; new="
> https://www.youtube.com/embed/";>
> <$vars src={{{ [[$url$]removeprefix<old>addprefix<new>] }}}>
> <iframe width="$w$" height="$h$" src=<<src>> frameborder="0"
> allowfullscreen></iframe>
> </$vars>
> </$vars>
> \end
>
And even this:
> \define video(url, w:"400px", h:"300px")
> <iframe width="$w$" height="$h$" src={{{ $url$ +[split[watch?v=]join[embed
> /]] }}} frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
> \end
>
In the end I decided to stick with this final macro:
\define vid(id, w:"534px", h:"300px")
<iframe src={{{ [[$id$]addprefix[https://www.youtube.com/embed/]] }}}
width="$w$" height="$h$" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
\end
and usage like: <<vid "ScjChJDp3mo">>
Don't want to deal with youtube.com/youtu.be and https:/http: in the future.
Btw, did I get it right that you don't need to specify
(parameters/variables - whatever they're called) of the macro when calling
it and if their names are omitted macro just handles them in a specified
order?
So I don't need to write: <<vid id:"VIDEOID" w:"640" h:"360">> and I can
write just <<vid "VIDEOID" "640" "360">>?
Thanks Eric and Mat! And Eric especially for the comprehensive lecture. Too
bad it would be forever lost in the annals of this forum. I think it could
be usefull to many other newbies.
I think someone should seriously think about "TW Online Tutorial" (with
some learning curve, cases, recipies etc), becase as I said earlier
tiddlywiki.com <https://tiddlywiki.com/#SetWidget> is of course very
usefull, but provide not very much in terms of "learning". In most cases
there are just parameter descriptions and very basic usage. And Working
with TiddlyWiki <https://tiddlywiki.com/#Working%20with%20TiddlyWiki> section
is very limited as well.
enjoying,
