Hi Jeremy,
thanks for answering (so fast...).
On Mac OS X, npm global installs end up
> in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/tiddlywiki
So much I was able to find out from npm documentation. I looked there to
find the source for the system tiddler
The purpose for this is in my answer to your question:
What are you trying to accomplish?
I was revisiting a problem about which I posted here on April 8, under
topic [TW5] ? syncer-browser sync error
The goal to accomplish is to export a single-html-file version of a wiki,
from Node.js version 5.1.9, with minimal config ("out of box"), using the
command
tiddlywiki <source folder> --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all <target
file>.html text/plain
Under the 5.1.7 I was using a multi-folder setup to achieve a render,
setting Node.js up to serve from the ../pages folder, and rendering to
../readonly
...
"includeWikis": [
"../pages"
],
"config": {
"default-tiddler-location": "../pages/tiddlers"
}
}
For this I used the shell command:
tiddlywiki ../readonly --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all ../../index.html
text/plain
So I was trying to accomplish is for this to work just with the default
"out of box" setup which has a single folder "tiddlers", instead of using
the multiple-folder setup, which is considerably more complex..
tiddlywiki tw5.1.9-filled --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all index.html text/
plain
On the second try, right now, this seems to work fine, so pending further
tests, the issue may be resolved. (Previously there was an error about a
missing "core" tiddler save, noted in the above thread).
Still, IMHO the folders under
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/tiddlywiki
should be briefly explained somewhere.
Overall, I find that the Node.js version does not yet figure centrally in
tiddlywiki.com even though it is about a year since it has been out of
beta. This may be just me, working with Node.js instead of the other
versions, but it may be worth asking whether the trend is generally
changing in the TW community and to accordingly start some steps in
rearranging TW to somehow highlight related topics. I am aware that this
may be just a personal bias, still I wanted to share this here.
Best regards and wishes,
Iannis Z.
