Sections & Markdown

#1

Note: @arunnbabu81 , @Mohammad

I thought I’d see if I could add markdown ability to Mohammad’s Sections Editor. I used the code from github which I assumed was the latest. I thought if it worked I would submit a PR. I think I made fair progress, but apparently 1.1.1 had a bug (?) in it causing the preview to drop below the edit box. The current (fixed) version is apparently in the Demo (1.1.2), but I think it’s been uglified, so it’s hard to know where the changes were.

So I’m not sure where I’m going with this now. I could just release a stand-alone version that people could use – if there’s interest. I think it’s usable if people don’t mind the split-preview.

Do you need each pain to be 49% width? so they will align horizontally?

That’s a good thought and I’ll keep it mind. But I think in this case there is a bunch of misplaced code between the upper and lower panes. Just not sure where that’s coming from.

Ok, I found which tiddler was errant.

You can test the functionality out here and see what you think:

Note that it isn’t packed as a complete plugin. So you’ll need to drag and drop these over :

$:/plugins/kookma/section/macros/main
$:/plugins/kookma/section/macros/sectionizer
$:/plugins/kookma/section/templates/section-body
$:/plugins/kookma/section/templates/section-header
$:/plugins/kookma/section/templates/view
$:/plugins/kookma/section/ui/EditTemplate-body

as well as the section plugin itself.

I did testing with two of my note tiddlers and it was working fine. Do you plan to pack it as a plug in?
Will this work with section TOC plug in ?

I’m thinking of making a PR so it can be part of Sections. But there may be a performance issue at scale, since it uses wikify to apply the markdown. I’m waiting for the code to be updated at github so I can see if my code will be compatible.

Not currently – the use of “!” is pretty much embedded into that. Maybe later.
