Queries

Tiddlers in this tank tagged glossary which include the text wikitext:

https://tank.peermore.com/bags/tweb-filters/tiddlers?select=tag:glossary;select=text:wikitext

N.B: On systems like TiddlySpace where there is a system wide index, such a query is likely to be more efficient as a search but the results will be slightly different.

In Recipes

Filters were originally designed for use in recipe. Using them with URIs (as above) was a quickly obvious second use. Their goal in recipes is to allow customizable selection of content from multiple places to create a useful aggregate.

Here's a hypothetical recipe which gathers up content from various places:

• /bags/system/tiddlers
  • The default plugins etc that make TiddlyWeb go, no filter required
• /bags/prettytheme/tiddlers
  • select=title:!ColorPalette
  • tiddlers for a theme, minus the ColorPalette, so the default is used
• /bags/blog/tiddlers
  • select=tag:published
  • tiddlers tagged published from the blog bag
• /bags/tweets/tiddlers
  • sort=-modified;limit=10
  • ten most recently modified tiddlers from the tweets bag
• /bags/mycustomizations/tiddlers
  • some local customizations that come last to make sure they clobber other things
