title: Environment Variables on Node.js
type: text/vnd.tiddlywiki
[[TiddlyWiki on Node.js]] supports the following OS environment variables for specifying a delimited list of paths to search for plugins and editions:
* `TIDDLYWIKI_PLUGIN_PATH` - Search path for ordinary plugins
* `TIDDLYWIKI_THEME_PATH` - Search path for themes
* `TIDDLYWIKI_LANGUAGE_PATH` - Search path for languages
* `TIDDLYWIKI_EDITION_PATH` - Search path for editions (used by the InitCommand)
<$macrocall $name=".note" _="""''1.'' The delimiter may vary between operating systems. While on Windows a semicolon `;` is used, Linux implements a colon `:`.<br><br>''2.'' On Linux systems, it may be necessary to //''export''// the variable as well as to define it.
"""/>
The additional paths should each point to folders structured like the equivalent directories in the ~TiddlyWiki5 GitHub repository: the plugin, theme and language directories contain `publisher/pluginname/<files>` while the edition directories contain `editionname/<files>`
For example:
```
export TIDDLYWIKI_PLUGIN_PATH=~/MyPluginStore
tiddlywiki mywiki --build index
```
