Filter question: all tiddlers with that contain the current tiddler's title in their text field

[David Gifford]

Hi all

I want to try out a list filter with all tiddlers with that contain the current tiddler's title in their text field

I tried

<$list filter='[text[<currentTiddler>]]'>

and similar options, but they did not cause the tiddler that met that criteria to appear in the list.

What am I doing wrong? And please, just the filter, not a long define / end thing that needs to go at the top of the tiddlers where I want that. There has to be a filter for this.

Thanks in advance, Dave

Can't you omit the [text] part??

I did, but got a recursive error since it was including the current tiddler.

I am also learning and trying to help.

So you have this tiddler called for instance "Walking"

And now you want to list the tiddlers who have Walking in their text field? The field you can add below your tidder so to speak??

Hmm trying but also not successful.

Maybe someone else knows what the exact syntax is...

Now time to sleep ;-)

Cheers

Since filter operators don't have a T operator (except maybe in "reduce"), you need two list filters:

<$list filter="[all[tiddlers]]">

<$list filter="[<currentTiddler>search:text:literal<currentTiddler>]"/>

</$list>

I came up with the following:

{{{ [!is[system]regexp:text<currentTiddler>] }}}

David's is this what you meant?

Note: it doesnt work in draft/edit preview mode as the value of currentTiddler then is "Draft of"... but once you save it, it should work.

David,

I see you wanted a list widget. How about this:

<$list filter="[!is[system]regexp:text<storyTiddler>]">

</$list>

Eric,

To help my learn, was there something wrong with mine?

The regexp[] filter finds *pattern* matches.  If the tiddler's title contains any special regular expression syntax (such as ".") then it can match text other than the exact title.

For example:

title = "Foo.Bar" would also match "FootBar" and "FoolBar"

The email reply didn't send yesterday. Thank you, Mark!

Ah - I knew this about regexp but didnt think about it all here. Thanks Eric!

Apparently I misunderstood the question -- I thought you wanted every tiddler with contents eponymously associated with their title.
