BOA - Catalog of selected and sorted tiddlers

[oleghbond]

Plugin is:

• titled BOA - Catalog of selected and sorted tiddlers,
• placed locally at $:/plugins/boa/catalog,
• placed globally at https://protw.github.io/templ,
• dependent on plugin Shiraz and widget Checklist.

The plugin displays a set of tiddlers selected by tags and sorted by the creation date as a tiled grid. For the tag selection and the creation date filtering the control panel is used:

The list of tags at the catalog control panel is defined by index full-tag-list of the data tiddler $:/plugins/boa/catalog/vars. So, for defining own list of tags one has to edit the index full-tag-list of the data tiddler $:/plugins/boa/catalog/vars. In case a certain tag from the list contains a space this tag has to be embraced into square brackets [[certain tag]].

Immediately below the control panel the tiled grid of the selected and sorted tiddlers is placed. Each tiddler in the grid is displayed under control of the template $:/plugins/boa/catalog/template/catalog-element. Thus the template can be customized by a user.

The complete catalog including the control panel and the tiled tiddler grid can be revealed by inserting macros <<boa-catalog>>.

An example can be seen at https://protw.github.io/treemap

oleghbond, This looks elegant but personally I find a second language, I do not know, difficult to work with. But once I had a tiddler open with the  <<boa-catalog>> Macro I started to see it working. I need to explore further but is it fair to say "This is a catalogue for browsing and listing a selected set of tags"? Since you make use of tag pills, have a look at this attached informal set of macros that add functionality to the tag pill drop down, it may work well with your solution. Once installed it looks like above. Thanks for sharing. Regards Tony

Nice to see Bank of America is using TiddlyWiki!

Tony,

I'll sort out this issue. Though for the beginning everything is intuitively clear.

It's correct.

Eventually I'd be grateful for any of your comments.

@oleghbond thank you for sharing! Seems like an interesting project too.

I agree, especially since you gave a pretty detailed explanation. I appreciate that you took the time to do that.

Please don't let them language of your demos be a reason not to post them here in the future. 
Chrome's integration with google translate actually works quite well for TW as well most of the time.

Cheers,
