Using TiddlyWiki5 to build TiddlyWikiClassic

TiddlyWiki5 can be used to build older 2.x.x versions of TiddlyWiki from their constituent components. Doing so involves these additional features over and above those used for building TiddlyWiki5:

• The tiddlywiki2/loadrecipe plugin, containing a deserializer module which allows tiddlers to be loaded from TiddlyWiki 2.x.x .recipe files
• The tiddlywiki2/stripcomments plugin, containing a new viewer format for the <$view> widget that strips single line JavaScript comments starting //#
• The stripTitlePrefix='yes' attribute of the <$fields> widget, which removes prefixes wrapped in curly braces from the title attribute
  • For example, {tiddler}HelloThere would be transformed to HelloThere

Usage

TiddlyWikiClassic is built from the command line by running TiddlyWiki5 under node.js. A typical usage would be:

node ../../tiddlywiki.js \
	--verbose \
	--load <path_to_recipe_file> \
	--savetiddler $:/core/templates/tiddlywiki2.template.html <path_to_write_index_file> text/plain \
	|| exit 1
