Creating TiddlyWiki

[bgoetzmann]

Hello,

I'm really impressed by TiddlyWiki!
I would like use TiddlyWiki for creating documentation, so to be able
to create an initial HTML file with some tiddlers with labels. I think
here to a template approach.
Where can I find documentation on how the page is constructed? Or
perhaps, it exists an API to inject tiddlers?

Thank you for any help.

You have access to standard ViewTemplate and EditTemplate which are
shadow tiddlers and can be found in the more tab -> shadows in the
sidebartabs...


If you want to display different elements based on tags you have (at
least) two options:

1) Hide or show elements in a template by enclosing them in a
hidewhentagged or showwhentagged div - provided by HideWhenPlugin [1]
or
2) Open/use different custom templates - provided by
TaggedTemplateTweak [2]

Hi Bertrand,
How do you create your documentation? TW or external source?
Should your TW be editable for users afterwards, or is it readOnly?

Can you describe your usecase a bit closer?

Thank you for your response; I wasn't very clear.

In fact I wanted use TW as some sort of documentation tool, by creating an initial HTML file with some tiddlers, for example with the use of a template and some code in order to generate an intitial HTML file.

I found something that goes in that sense here:  https://gist.github.com/745113 with the use of an XSLT file.

So I got my response: I can "inject" tiddlers in the tag div that has the id storeArea.

Now I ask me, how I can made the document read only.
