The user interface needs some refinements but it shows the basic principles. The idea is that the translator would email their modified file, which would then be merged into the core repo (some additional tools will be helpful for this). Fixes #984 |

Welcome to TiddlyWiki, a non-linear personal web notebook that anyone can use and keep forever, independently of any corporation.
TiddlyWiki is a complete interactive wiki in JavaScript. It can be used as a single HTML file in the browser or as a powerful Node.js application. It is highly customisable: the entire user interface is itself implemented in hackable WikiText.
Learn more and see it in action at http://tiddlywiki.com/
Developer documentation is in progress at http://tiddlywiki.com/dev/
Installing TiddlyWiki on Node.js
- Install Node.js from http://nodejs.org
- Open a command line terminal and type:
npm install -g tiddlywiki
If it fails with an error you may need to re-run the command as an administrator:
npm install -g tiddlywiki
(Windows)sudo npm install -g tiddlywiki
(Mac/Linux) - Check TiddlyWiki is installed by typing:
tiddlywiki --version
- In response, you should see TiddlyWiki report its current version (eg
5.0.8-beta
; you may also see other debugging information reported) - Try it out:
tiddlywiki mynewwiki --init server
to create a folder for a new wiki that includes server-related componentstiddlywiki mynewwiki --server
to start TiddlyWiki- Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in your browser
- Try editing and creating tiddlers
The -g
flag causes TiddlyWiki to be installed globally. Without it, TiddlyWiki will only be available in the directory where you installed it.
Using TiddlyWiki on Node.js
TiddlyWiki5 can be used on the command line to perform an extensive set of operations based on TiddlyWikiFolders, TiddlerFiles and TiddlyWikiFiles.
For example, the following command loads the tiddlers from a TiddlyWiki HTML file and then saves one of them in static HTML:
tiddlywiki --verbose --load mywiki.html --rendertiddler ReadMe ./readme.html
Running tiddlywiki
from the command line boots the TiddlyWiki kernel, loads the core plugins and establishes an empty wiki store. It then sequentially processes the command line arguments from left to right. The arguments are separated with spaces.
The first argument is the optional path to the TiddlyWikiFolder to be loaded. If not present, then the current directory is used.
The commands and their individual arguments follow, each command being identified by the prefix --
.
tiddlywiki [<wikipath>] [--<command> [<arg>[,<arg>]]]
The available commands are:
- BuildCommand
- ClearPasswordCommand
- HelpCommand
- InitCommand
- LoadCommand
- MakeLibraryCommand
- OutputCommand
- PasswordCommand
- RenderTiddlerCommand
- RenderTiddlersCommand
- SaveTiddlerCommand
- SaveTiddlersCommand
- ServerCommand
- SetFieldCommand
- VerboseCommand
- VersionCommand
Upgrading TiddlyWiki on Node.js
If you've installed TiddlyWiki on Node.js on the usual way, when a new version is released you can upgrade it with this command:
npm update -g tiddlywiki
On Mac or Linux you'll need to add sudo like this:
sudo npm update -g tiddlywiki
