TiddlyWiki Static Site Publishing

A set of scripts designed to work with Github Actions for Static Site Publishing for TiddlyWiki.

Overview

Update a single file TiddlyWiki and check it into git, and the Github Action here will generate a static version of the site.

This static site will have your default home page at index.html (at the root of your site) and all of the tiddlers will be at YOURNAME.github.io/REPO/my-tiddler.html, or example.com/my-tiddler.html if you have mapped a custom domain.

Instructions

1. Fork this repo
2. Edit the shadow tiddler $:/core/templates/static.template.html to remove the static/ prefix in the macro tv-wikilink-template
3. Check in your own single file wiki -- the default build.sh expects it to be named index.html but you can call it whatever you like
4. Add a gh-pages branch -- can be empty, it is overwritten on publish
5. Set Github Pages settings to publish from the gh-pages branch

If you set up your single file wiki with a Github Git saver, whenever you save, a new version of your site will automatically be built and published.

Thanks to @saqimtiaz for the build script and general support and good energy!

Uses JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action as the final step in the action, inspired by pengx17/logseq-publish.
