The idea was to be able to flag unknown parameter names, but requiring a command to pre-specify all the parameter names makes it harder for (say) the listen command to be extensible so that plugins can add new optional parameters that they handle. (This is particularly in the context of work in progress to encapsulate authenticators into their own modules).
* Introduce a new named parameter scheme for commands
* Move the SimpleServer class into it's own module
* Deprecate the --server command because of the unwieldy syntax
* Add a new --listen command using the new syntax
For example:
tiddlywiki mywiki --listen host:0.0.0.0 port:8090
We were taking the commands expanded from the build targets and placing
them at the end of the queue. That caused a problem whereby the
prevailing output folder was always the last one in the command token
list.
Now we splice the new commands into the command token list at the
current position.
This change is likely to break most existing scripts that call
TiddlyWiki.
TL;DR - output paths are now relative to the editions/output folder,
rather than to the current folder
See [[Notes for upgrading to 5.0.11-beta]] for details.
"Plugins" are bundles of tiddlers managed as one, "modules" are
JavaScript tiddlers with a module type identifying when and how they
should be executed.
