Hello everybody, today I'd like to announce that the public release of SharedTiddlers plugin is ready [1].
In principle, almost everything, including an introduction, can be found in the repository. In two words: the plugin allows to * see tiddlers from another tiddlywikis (as read-only) inside the "main" one * share theme components (style sheets, templates: PageTemplate, ViewTemplate, EditTemplate, ToolbarCommands) which can be stored in one central TW * do other things, including sharing evaluated transclusions like "toggle menus" engines from TiddlyTools [2] or "custom" ones (in fact, most of plugins can easily turned into evaluated transclusions, which will be described in the documentation later) Some major improvements since IncludePlugin [3]: * now a set of tiddlers (defined by a filter) can be included instead of all tiddlers * shadows and tiddlers can be "substituted" with the included tiddlers (they are not altered and if including is switched off, they remain the same as they were) * a notification system for name conflicts is introduced * elements of themes are now applied on load * wikifyIncluded macro is introduced (see docs) * simple "importing" engine is added * slices are recalculated according to the presence of new tiddlers * documentation on how to make plugins "include-aware" is added (and pieces of code that make abego plugins "include-aware" are removed from the main code) Feedback is welcome. Though, I'm rather slow in my development, so take this into account. Also, if you have some "basic" questions, please take a look at the docs first and let me know if I missed something there. Best regards, Yakov. PS there are some plans for further development including * evaluation system for plugins (to remove the need of making evaluated transclusions) * aggregation tools for analysing data (search and other) among several TWs simultaneously (accounting name conflicts) but I can't predict how soon I implement this.
