The Tw2parser plugin includes handling of namespace conflicts between Classic and Tw5 macros.
|
|
|
|
One of the goals of the Tw2parser plugin is to hide the Classic macros from tiddlers of types other than text/x-tiddlywiki. This is achieved by having the parser prepend the macro definitions to the 'local' parse tree (see around line 60 wikitextparser.js), making them only visible in text/x-tiddlywiki tiddlers and typed-blocks. At present all text based Classic macros are in the same file.
|
|
|
|
As all global Tw5 macros are visible in all tiddlers (including text/x-tiddlywiki tiddlers), there is a name-space conflict between Classic and tw5 macros. For macros that are defined using tiddlytext (ie /define() /end blocks) the local defined Classic definition will override the global Tw5 macros (which is what we want).
|
|
|
|
For cases where simple overriding is not sufficient, the tw2parser plugin also has a 'macro name adapter' module (macroadapter.js) to move the Classic macros names to a new names -
|
|
(in wikitextrules.js around line 490)
|
|
|
|
{{{tw2on5-name=macroadapter.namedapter[tw2name];}}}
|
|
|
|
This is invisible to the user.
|
|
|
|
An example is the {{{tabs()}}} macro which is mapped to {{{__system_tabs()}}}
|
|
so the user still types {{{tabs()}}} but this is mapped to {{{__system_tabs()}}} in the parser which is what appears in the file macrodefs.tids
|
|
|
|
There is also the facility to manipulate the parameters via {{{params=macroadapter.paramadaptername}}}
|
|
This is used in the 'tabs' macro where there is a variable number of parameters that must be mapped into fixed number of tw5 macro parameters.
|
|
|
|
The implementation of the tabs macro is rather sophisticated, the parameters are put into maps from tab-tiddername to tab-property (properties are cookies, prompts and labels) implemented as jsons.
