[tw5] Export multiple tiddlers by filter to single JSON file from command-line

[caderoux]

I am sending a filter to --render but it is only putting one tiddler in the json file.

Current command line:

tiddlywiki “Data Mart User Manual” --render “[field:change.from[7.0SU2 (7.0.Local)]][field:change.to[9.0 (9.0.Local)]]” ChangeLog.json text/plain “$:/core/templates/json-tiddler”

Thanks,

Cade

Hi Cade

The render command outputs one file for each tiddler. In this case, the files are all called “ChangeLog.json”, so they overwrite one another.

The fix is to use a filter expression for the output filename, and generate a filename from the title:

tiddlywiki “Data Mart User Manual” --render “[field:change.from[7.0SU2 (7.0.Local)]][field:change.to[9.0 (9.0.Local)]]” “[encodeuricomponent[]addsuffix[.json]]” text/plain “$:/core/templates/json-tiddler”

Best wishes

Jeremy
