Some time ago we had discussions about using the wikification code in
TiddlyWiki5 to replace the server-side rendered used on tiddlyspace.com,
twikifier[1].

I had started one, with the stub name tw5ikifier[2], but then stalled out
on two issues that came up:

* Jeremy and I worked out some better, more flexible ways, conceptually, to
handle inter-space links and Jeremy went off to implement that.
* Jeremy did a large refactoring to make TiddlyWiki5 more coherent and was
going to report back on how to hook things up.

Since then I'm not sure what the state or availability is of library-like
access to the wikification process.


Any updates Jeremy?


Thank you for your patience. I'm afraid I'm still completing the stack of
work unearthed during our discussions in May. Running as a representation
transformation module within a larger system like TiddlySpace is an
important goal for TW5 and so I want to get it right; it also turns out
that the concerns cascade so that it is intimately connected to everything
else, and so I've been striving to keep simplifying the system, and keep
reducing the number of moving parts.

So, since our earlier discussions I've completed the first major
refactoring, which was to introduce the micro kernel and module loading
system. I'm actually still working on aspects of the plugin mechanism right
now, trying to reduce the number of mechanisms further by merging it with
the shadow tiddler mechanism. During the period I've also been steadily
working on improving the new wikifier, documentation and getting the basic
browser-based saving working.

In terms of the TiddlySpace work, I'll very soon be able to put together a
TiddlyWeb/Space plugin that encapsulates all the core changes required. My
plan is to also put together a little test rig demonstrating how the new
TW5 engine can be used as a library by another app. I'd hope to be at that
point before the end of this month.

Best wishes

Jeremy
