Is there any way to export TiddlyWiki to a list of markdown files?

[Ilyusha Nicolas]

I have a html with many tiddlers, with tags and links. I want to find a way to export this html to a list of markdown files such that each tiddler corresponds to a markdown file, each link to X shows up as "[[X]]" in the output markdown file, similarly with tags?

Perhaps some more information.

When you say HTML do you mean a tiddlywiki?

You can make your own templates and export tool, also now with the recent JSZip plugin you can bundle tiddlers into a zip that you can then expand in a folder.

Where you have seen talk of generating static sites you can follow a similar method to generate any filetype you fancy.

I've done this before using these instructions here: https://davidalfonso.es/posts/migrating-from-tiddlywiki-to-markdown-files

The original gitlab repository from David Alfonso doesn't exist anymore. But I've created a fork which you can find here: https://gitlab.com/vdorneanu/tiddlywiki-migrator

I've used this method to convert tiddlers to markdown files which then were "compiled" by hugo (https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo) to some html files.

Kind regards,

Victor

I assume in order to use this method I need to

1. Install Node.js + Pandoc

2. Install Git https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git

3. Clone repository https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Getting-a-Git-Repository

4. Follow the instructions here https://gitlab.com/vdorneanu/tiddlywiki-migrator#usage

Right?

However I already have VS Code, so can I do this instead

1. Install Node.js + Pandoc

2. Clone repo https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/versioncontrol#_cloning-a-repository

3. Follow the instructions here https://gitlab.com/vdorneanu/tiddlywiki-migrator#usage

?

Thank you for your time.

If you don't mind using python, there is also PyTiddlyWiki that can export a group of tiddlers to .md among other formats.

Wow, that tool is awesome. Especially when you use jupyter/ipython. Thanks for sharing.
