Not withstanding others efforts and developer activities in tiddlywiki, I
have spent some time looking at making use of templates and transclusion in
new and interesting ways. In many cases I can replace the functionality of
many macros with templates.
Here is a simple example. Display tag pills for the tags on the current
tiddler
{{||(tag-pills)}}
or another tiddler
{{Home||(tag-pills)}}
You can also use the long form $transclusion
Where the tiddler ' (tag-pills) ' contains the following
<$list filter="[all[current]tags[]]">{{||$:/core/ui/TagTemplate}}</$list>
Basically snipits of code/macros variables etc... are captured in a tiddler
and included in other tiddlers by a simple transclusion. In effect making
reusable code blocks.
I use the (brackets) so they can be found in the standard search but they
are easy to tell apart from other tiddlers.
Interestingly they offer a replacement for the aforementioned concatenation
macros (which cant not yet be optimised more).
Later I expect to use Marios custom markup to simplify this further eg
' tag-pills
would transclude (tag-pills) with he current tiddler {{||(tag-pills)}}
I would also list all the possible transclusion tiddlers in the side bar so
you can drag and drop into the text of any tiddler, to allow rapid design.
