[TW5] Multi-level filtered lists syntax help?

[Matthew Petty]

I use TW5 to keep track of tasks. Tiddlers that are tasks are tagged "task". I have 2 fields, "p" for priority and "tasklist" for "work", "home" etc.
How can I generate a list of tasks, broken down into nested lists of "work", "personal" and so on, with the tasks below sorted by priority?

Like this:
Tasklist: work
_ task a (priority 1)
_ task e (priority 1)
_ task c (priority 2)
_ task b (priority 2)
_ task d (priority 5)

Tasklist: personal
_ task x (priority 1)
_ task z (priority 2)
_ task y (priority 3)


This is what I have so far. It doesn't work, of course, but I at least wanted you to know I was trying.

<$list filter="[!title[JournalSkeleton]!has[draft.of]tag[task]!tag[done]!sort[p]each[tasklist]]">

! Tasklist: <$view field="tasklist"/>
<$list filter="[!title[JournalSkeleton]!has[draft.of]tag[task]!tag[done]!sort[p]]">

<$checkbox tag="done">
<$link to={{!!title}}>
<$view field="title"/>
</$link> (priority <$view field="p"/>)
</$checkbox>
</$list>
</$list>

Hi Matthew

You have to filter the inner list with the current tasklist value. Try this

<$list filter="[!title[JournalSkeleton]!has[draft.of]tag[task]!tag[done]!sort[p]

each[tasklist]]">



! Tasklist: <$view field="tasklist"/>


<$list filter="[tasklist{!!tasklist}!title[JournalSkeleton]!has[draft.of]tag[task]!tag[done]!sort[p]]">



<$checkbox tag="done">
<$link to={{!!title}}>
<$view field="title"/>
</$link> (priority <$view field="p"/>)
</$checkbox>
</$list>
</$list>

Regards,

I have a further question. Is there a way to do all this just with tags, and not with fields? Is it possible to filter on tags, but only looking for the first few characters of the tag? Like you can do with titles.
The problem is that I would have to go back and set all the fields on my task tiddlers. It's easier to set tags in bulk, or with a checkbox.

If it's just ONE tag that each of the tiddlers has, it's easy:

field:tags/^FirstCharacters/

If there is possibly more than one tag per tiddler, but none of them has spaces, try:

field:tags/(^| )FirstCharacters/

And finally, if spaces in tags are occuring:

field:tags/(^|\[\[| )FirstCharacters/

But be aware that the last one might give you false hits! Example:

If a tag "a b" exists and you want to find tag "b", this one will also find "a b".


The trick is to make the filter handle the tags-field like a normal field and to search it using a regular expression.
