The title isn't completely accurate as it is difficult to summarize the
problem. Plain text .txt files or .md files, loaded via a tiddlywiki.files
declaration load in the TiddlyWiki just fine. However, editing them is
problematic.
With a subdir in my tiddlers directory called "notes", containing a file
"mynote.txt", editing results in a file "mynote 1.txt" and "mynote
1txt.meta" whereas I would expect the original "mynote.txt" to be updated
and a .meta file created. This behavior leads to duplication of tiddler
files and is rather confusing. If the intent was that files loaded in this
manner should not be editable, then we should find a way to set them as
read only.
It is possible that the problem may arise from my tiddlywiki.files
declaration as I am new to this, so here it is:
{
> "directories" : [
> {
> "path" : "../notes",
> "filesRegExp" : ".+\\.txt",
> "isTiddlerFile" : false,
> "fields" : {
> "title" : {"source" : "basename-uri-decoded"},
> "created": {"source" : "created"},
> "modified": {"source" : "modified"},
> "type": "text/plain",
> "tags": ["note", "externalnote"]
> }
> }
> ]
> }
Digging into the code in boot.js reveals that not .txt or .md files that do
not have .meta files and are loaded via a tiddlywiki.files declaration are
never added to $tw.boot.files (as they don't have their filepath
set):https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/a4035d34247e2f27efc9cb6228432deea21d73a3/boot/boot.js#L1786
Likely this is the problem and leads the save handler to rename the tiddler
because of an assumed file name clash, leading to file names like "mynote
1.txt".
Have I missed something with my configuration? If not, feature or bug?

Saq
